Loisel admires a society that values B. money and possessions above everything else.

Explanation:

The story of Guy de Maupassant's "The Necklace" shows how greed or envy can often lead to the destruction and suffering of an individual.

Mathilde Loisel is the wife of a clerk who works for the minister of Education. Fron the beginning of the story, we find her unhappy about her own upbringing, saying that she was a mistake to be born. She envies her friends and neighbors who live in rich big houses with lots of material goods.

During the course of the story, we find her unsatisfied with so many things. First, when her husband brought the invitation for a ball, she complains that she has no beautiful presentable dress to wear. The dress was bought in place of the planned rifle. Then before the ball, she again complains to not having any jewelry to wear with the gown. Her husband suggests she borrow one from a friend, which she does. We also find instances where she says that she fancies beautiful clothes and wants jewelry of her own. She gets happy whenever she imagines herself in a house with extravagant stuffs.
