Coco chanel once said, “luxury must be comfortable; otherwise it is not luxury.” in fact, many of her designs reflected loosely tailored looks appropriate for an active lifestyle. prior to chanel’s time, most women’s clothing featured a “corseted silhouette.” in other words, dresses were structured, stiff, and constraining. fashion experts believe chanel designed women’s fashion so that the new standard was casual, chic clothing. the writer wants to emphasize, in the underlined portion, that chanel had a tremendous impact on fashion design. which choice best accomplishes that goal? a. no change b. enriched c. narrowed d. revolutionized

To emphasize design in the sentence the correct answer is revolutionized

Explanation:

The sentence "Chanel designed women’s fashion so that the new standard was casual, chic clothing." refers to a creative process to make something new, but if the word designed is changed form the word revolutionized the complete meaning of the sentence changes to a movement that affects not only the fashion industry but also society, which makes it stronger.

"the monkey's paw" is a rare story in that the theme is actually stated in the story. sgt. maj. morris tells the whites that the old fakir who put the spell on the paw said, "fate rules people's lives and those who interfere with fate do so to their sorrow." the message is a warning, but mr. white doesn't believe it. even though sgt. maj. morris makes it clear that he tried wishing with unfortunate results and he tries to throw the paw on the fire,   mr. white makes a wish for 200 pounds only to find that he receives the money when herbert dies in a factory accident. according to the fakir, then, because mr. white had wished for something he should not have had, his son lost his life.

the second wish that mrs. white encourages him to make is for herbert's return--one week after his death. when the strange knocking begins at the door during the windy night, mr. white panicks, believing that the previously dead but still mangled herbert could have walked home from the cemetary and is now at the door. because he fears what his wife will find if she opens the door, mr. white makes his third wish--for the noise to stop.

therefore, he uses his three wishes and to his sorrow, loses his son and disappoints his wife, who fervently believed that their son was at the door. she wanted him back, regardless of his condition.
