The climax of the story is

Mr. Mallard walking through the door

When doctors said she died of joy

When Richards and Josephine told Mrs. Mallard her husband died

What is the best choice for theme of the story?

Relationships can be oppressive

Open windows are good for day dreaming

Don't listen to your friends news because it could be wrong

According to the selection, why is the line "she had died of heart disease--of the joy that kills" ironic?

She was sad that her husband was actually alive

Joy cannot literally kill someone

She was sad that her husband was dead

How could we best characterize Brently Mallard

He's a typical husband in the late 19th-century.

He is an abusive husband who deserves to die in a fiery train wreck.

He's a conniving man who set up the train wreck story so he could scare his wife and kill her.

In 1894, this story was probably controversial because

Women were not supposed to think independently and Mrs. Mallard's thought process was too extreme.

Railroad accidents were common and this story made people lobby for safer railroads.

Authors did not commonly use irony and Kate Chopin's use of irony was groundbreaking.

Which of the following details best demonstrates Mrs. Mallard's feelings toward her newfound freedom?

What could love, the unsolved mystery, count for in the face of this possession of self-assertion which she suddenly recognized as the strongest impulse of her being!

There was something coming to her and she was waiting for it, fearfully.

She wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment, in her sister's arms.

Knowing that Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with a heart trouble, great care was taken to break to her as gently as possible the news of her husband's death.

Story of an Hour: How does Mrs. Mallard view her love for her husband?

She considered him the great love of her life.

The text is not clear about how Mrs. Mallard felt about her husband.

Story of an Hour: According to the text, is Mrs. Mallard happy to receive the news that her husband has died? Which answer below is supported by textual evidence?

She is not “happy” her husband has died, but after the initial shock wears off, she imagines a greater freedom in her life.

Yes; Mrs. Mallard expresses her desire to start a relationship with Mr. Benchley.

The text is not clear about how she feels.

No, she is not happy; she contemplates suicide.

Why does Chopin choose to withhold telling the reader Mrs. Mallard's first name?

Because Mrs. Marllard was denied her own identify for so long

Because it wasn't important to the story

Because Mrs. Mallard liked being known as Mrs. Mallard
