25. What theme does this event from "The Necklace" support? "Why, darling, I
thought you'd be pleased. You never go out, and this is a great occasion. I had
tremendous trouble to get it. Everyone wants one; it's very select, and very few go to
the clerks. You'll see all the really big people there."

Unhappy people are never satisfied.

The theme this event from "The Necklace" supports is:

D. Unhappy people are never satisfied.

Explanation:

Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) was a French author famous for his short stories. This one in particular, "The Necklace", revolves around Madame Loisel. She is bored and annoyed at her own life, constantly wishing she had more money to buy pretty things and to go out to mingle with the high society.

We can say Madame Loisel is unhappy with her situation. Interestingly, though, when her loving husband tries to do something to cheer her up, she remains unhappy. He knows she wants to go out more and to interact with "great" people, so he works hard to get an invitation to a fancy party. To his surprise, however, she is angry at him. Now the problem is no longer not having the opportunity to go out, but not having fancy dresses and jewelry. With this in mind, we can choose letter D as the theme for the passage:

D. Unhappy people are never satisfied.
