1. I think she is portrayed as a person who wants to become rich; you can say she is a vain person
2. No. because the sentence only talks about the journey for us to see what is enough
3. I think the author wants to say that poor people want to become richer because, at that time, it was a measure.
4. Not exactly sympathetic. But my feelings for her had changed by the end of the story
5. In my opinion, the necklace in the story is just a chain that makes Mrs. Louis become a person who only cares about appearance and forgets what is important. Because at the end of the story, she realized and cherished what she had for 10 years, from being well-off to being poor, but there was always someone by her side who never complained or scolded her, or abandoned her in her most difficult times.
6. Mrs. Loisel went from being a person who only wanted to show off the best things while not being satisfied with what she had, but in the end, she changed her perspective and became happy with the people around her. This is not a negative change but a positive one.
7. I think not. Only when she accepted herself as she is now, then could she fully appreciate what she had.
8. This story teaches us not to dream of something too luxurious but to appreciate what we have.
