Direction: From The Necklace, what might have been the quality of Mme. Loisel’s life if she had not lost the necklace? Is her life better or worse now?
In the story, The Necklace, the author told us a story about Mme. Loisel, who lost her friend’s necklace, and had to work toughly for ten years to pay back the debt. But what might have been the quality of Mme. Loisel’s life if she had not lost the necklace?
We can tell from the story that Loisel lost the necklace on a party, where there were many rich and up-grade men there. Loisel was beautiful and smart enough to arouse their interest and attention. If she had not lost the necklace, it would be much likely that Loisel get connected with one or two of them. Since they were all rich, they wouldn’t care about having a pretty lady be company beside them occasionally. Mme. Loisel would be a good choice. Loisel could get all the pretty things she was fond of from them, necklaces, rings, operas, parties and so on. That might be the life Mme. Loisel had always dreamed of.
But such the kind of life wouldn’t last long, for her beautiful appearance wouldn’t last forever as she was getting old. What would her life be at that time? Rich men and beautiful things that once belonged to her were all gone. And the most terrible thing is that her husband would be no long with her. Maybe her husband was the person who loved her most, but he must have been hurted by
Loisel’s behaviors, which might make him be callous.
Let’s take a look at Loisel’s life now. She worked hard with her husband and earned money by her own efforts. All the things she was doing were unashamed. So in my point of view, if Mme. Loisel didn’t lost the necklace her life would be worse now. People are usually most depressed when they no longer master the wonderful things they once had. So would be Mme. Loisel. After she had lost all those things, she would be penniless and despairing.
Loisel was not unsuccessful because she lost the necklace and had to work toughly on it. She should proud of herself that she pay back the debt by her own hands. Maybe losing the necklace was a gift by the God, because without that, her life would be much worse.
