My mother doesn't understand. Not that I expected she would. When I told her the news, all she said was "Ah, the face that
launched a thousand ships." She didn't even look up from her book. Later, at dinner, she apologized for quoting Marlowe. Marlowe
is our cat
At bedtime I told my mother, "You should have seen the way Helen acted at school. It was disgusting, flirting with the boys."
Mom tucked the sheets up close around my chin, so that only my head was showing, my body covered mummy style. "Vita,"
she said, "it sounds like she's perfect for the part."
Read the excerpt above. Why does Vita's mother say that Helen is perfect for the role of Helen of Troy?
a. Because she didn't want Vita to do the play
b. Helen's flirtatiousness and attention to boys was just like Helen of Troy
C. Because her mom thinks Helen is more beautiful than Vita
d. Because Marlow said so

what is your question because all i see is "i'll give 25p. and give brainliest.

the narrator is saying that the old lady made her feel uncomfortable. you know this because they say "i found that rather irksome", "perhaps it was her being so upright and trim", and "i don't think it was that, because i thought that quaintly pleasant." hope this !

whats the passage

explanation:

you have no answers to choose

emerson essentially believes that traveling is overrated. he supports this perspective through an initial focus on "the idea" of places like italy, england, and egypt, and the fascination of "educated americans" with them. he argues that those places only took on the grand, majestic ideas that they represent because "they who made england, italy, or greece venerable in the imagination did so by sticking fast where they were, like an axis of the earth." yes, those places are grand, but only because they so clearly represent the places that they are. the art and culture of italy, england, and egypt is authentic, and therefore significant.
