1.
Even though Madame Loisel, Matilda, lost the emerald necklace, she and her
husband found a jeweler who made a replacement like the one she had lost.
2.
Poor, Matilda, she did not have gowns or jewelry which she so adored, but she
did have her dreams of luxuries.
3.
When her husband heard that 2,000 francs would buy Matilda a gown fit for the
ball, he nearly had a heart attack but agreed to spend this amount for his wife's happiness.
4.
Poor Matilda was so disappointed at the ball since her new gown and jewels
made no difference, and the men did not dance with her, and the women knew she was
not of their class.
5.
To pay the 36,000 francs for the necklace, Monsieur Loisel used his inheritance,
made loans with friends, and worked evenings; whereas, the ever proud Matilda refused
to let go of their maid and to do housework.
