    • Luciana

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Based on the story's resolution, is the following statement made by Rosaura's mother true or false?"Ah yes, your friend," her mother grumbled. She paused. "Listen, Rosaura," she said at last. "That one’s not your friend. You know what you are to them? The maid’s daughter, that’s what."

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In the story, Rosaura's mother expresses her dissatisfaction with Rosaura's friend by calling her "the maid's daughter." This implies that Rosaura's mother believes that her daughter is not truly seen as a friend by the other girl and instead is only valued for her association with the maid. Therefore, the statement made by Rosaura's mother, that the other girl is not Rosaura's friend but rather sees her as the maid's daughter, is true.

    What is the theme of "The Stolen Party"?

    • Only associate with like-minded people.

    • Employees should never fraternize with the help.

    • Immigrants will never be treated equally.

    • Social class is difficult to overcome.

    Correct Answer
    A. Social class is difficult to overcome.
    Explanation
    The theme of "The Stolen Party" is that social class is difficult to overcome. Throughout the story, the main character, Rosaura, is constantly reminded of her lower social status and is treated differently by the other characters. Despite her hard work and efforts, she is ultimately unable to break free from the constraints of her social class. This theme is highlighted by the unfair treatment and discrimination that Rosaura faces, ultimately emphasizing the challenges and limitations imposed by social class.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Which word best describes how the author characterizes Rosaura?

    • Innocent

    • Angry

    • Rebellious

    • Youthful

    Correct Answer
    A. Innocent
    Explanation
    The author characterizes Rosaura as innocent because throughout the passage, the author describes her as naive and unaware of the harsh realities of the world. The author emphasizes Rosaura's innocence by highlighting her childlike curiosity and her lack of understanding of the social dynamics at play. Additionally, the author portrays Rosaura as trusting and easily influenced, further emphasizing her innocence.

  • 7. 

    All of the details below support the irony in the text except for which detail?

    • She even managed the jug of orange juice, carrying it from the kitchen into the dining-room

    • Senora Ines arrived saying shh shh, and asked Rosaura if she wouldn't mind helping serve out the hot-dogs, as she knew the house so much better than the others.

    • First the cake. Senora Ines had asked her to help pass the cake around, and Rosaura had enjoyed the task immensely...

    • "So what," said Rosaura. "I come here every afternoon with my mother and we do our homework together."

    Correct Answer
    A. "So what," said Rosaura. "I come here every afternoon with my mother and we do our homework together."
    Explanation
    The given answer, "So what," said Rosaura. "I come here every afternoon with my mother and we do our homework together," does not support the irony in the text. The irony in the text is that despite Rosaura being treated as a special guest and being given tasks to do, she is still seen as inferior and not truly part of the upper-class party. This statement by Rosaura shows her unawareness of the class divide and reinforces the idea that she believes she is equal to the other children, which contrasts with how she is actually perceived by the others.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Which statement in the exposition does not support the development of social influence on Rosaura? 

    • The girl didn't approve of the way her mother spoke. She was barely nine and one of the best in her class.

    • "Rich people go to heaven too," said the girl, who studied religion at school.

    • "There will be a magician, and he will bring a monkey and everything."

    • "And I've been invited because Luciana is my friend."

    Correct Answer
    A. "There will be a magician, and he will bring a monkey and everything."
    Explanation
    The statement "There will be a magician, and he will bring a monkey and everything" does not support the development of social influence on Rosaura because it does not involve any social interactions or relationships. The other statements in the exposition, such as the girl disapproving of her mother's speech and mentioning her friend Luciana, suggest that Rosaura is influenced by social dynamics and relationships. However, the mention of a magician and a monkey does not contribute to this theme of social influence.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Why does the point of view change in Chunk 6 of the text?

    • To expose the irony.

    • To expose social injustice.

    • To expose the Luciana's true feelings.

    • To expose the conflict.

    Correct Answer
    A. To expose the irony.
    Explanation
    The point of view changes in Chunk 6 of the text to expose the irony. This suggests that there is a contrast between what is expected or intended and what actually happens. By changing the point of view, the author is able to highlight this irony and bring attention to the unexpected or contradictory elements in the narrative.
