O manners.
appearances.
Lady Bracknell. (Sitting down again.] A moment, Mr.
Worthing. A hundred and thirty thousand pounds! And in
the Funds! Miss Cardew seems to me a most attractive
young lady, now that I look at her. Few girls of the
present day have any really solid qualities, any of the
qualities that last, and improve with time. We live, I regret
to say, in an age of surfaces. [To Cecily.] Come over
here, dear. (Cecily goes across.] Pretty child! your dress
is sadly simple, and your hair seems almost as Nature
might have left it. But we can soon alter all that. A
thoroughly experienced French maid produces a really
marvellous result in a very brief space of time. I
remember recommending one to young Lady Lancing,
and after three months her own husband did not know

She had no gowns, no jewels, nothing. And she loved nothing but that. She felt made for that. She would have liked so much to please, to be envied, to be charming, to be sought after.
She had a friend, a former schoolmate at the convent, who was rich, and whom she did not like to go to see any more because she felt so sad when she came home.
4. How does she feel after visiting her well-to-do school friend?

But one evening her husband reached home with a triumphant air and holding a large envelope in his hand.
"There," said he, "there is something for you."
She tore the paper quickly and drew out a printed card which bore these words:
The Minister of Public Instruction and Madame Georges Ramponneau request the honor of M. and Madame Loisel's company at the palace of the Ministry on Monday evening, January 18th.
5. What is the date of the evening reception

Instead of being delighted, as her husband had hoped, she threw the invitation on the table crossly, muttering:
"What do you wish me to do with that?"
"Why, my dear, I thought you would be glad. You never go out, and this is such a fine opportunity. I had great trouble to get it. Everyone wants to go; it is very select, and they are not giving many invitations to clerks. The whole official world will be there."
She looked at him with an irritated glance and said impatiently:
"And what do you wish me to put on my back?"
He had not thought of that. He stammered:
"Why, the gown you go to the theatre in. It looks very well to me."
He stopped, distracted, seeing that his wife was weeping. Two great tears ran slowly from the corners of her eyes toward the corners of her mouth.
"What's the matter? What's the matter?" he answered.
By a violent effort she conquered her grief and replied in a calm voice, while she wiped her wet cheeks:
"Nothing. Only I have no gown, and, therefore, I can't go to this ball. Give your card to some colleague whose wife is better equipped than I am."
6. How the husband thinks his wife will react to the invitation and how she actually reacts?

Second, it is incredibly narrow-minded to assume that the only service libraries offer is book lending.
Libraries have a multitude of benefits, and many are only available if the library has a physical location.
Some of these benefits include acting as a quiet study space, giving people a way to converse with their neighbors, holding classes on a variety of topics, providing jobs, answering patron questions, and
keeping the community connected. One neighborhood found that, after a local library instituted
community events such as play times for toddlers and parents, job fairs for teenagers, and meeting
spaces for senior citizens, over a third of residents reported feeling more connected to their community. Similarly, a Pew survey conducted in 2015 found that nearly two-thirds of American adults feel that closing their local library would have a major impact on their community. People see libraries as a way to connect with others and get their questions answered, benefits tablets can’t offer nearly as well or as easily.

This is the second paragraph in the body of an essay arguing against the closure of local libraries. Critically evaluate whether the support evidence is relevant, sufficient and valid.
