<p>What does the description of the narrator's house do?
- Shows how unusual her lifestyle is.
- Shows how difficult her life is.</p>
<p>I put how unusual her lifestyle is because like stated above she never decribed where she lived in a negative way, but more of an unusual way. IE The walls of her house being made of plywood and the banging of the waves on the door. She didn't make out how she lived to be negative, but not "normal".</p>
<p>business and nature is from experimental section.</p>
<p>i have shakesear version too but i got 3 writings + the essay? shouldn't there be 40 something writing questions in total?</p>
<p>idk, kinda weird. cuz i dont hav business/nature passage, even thought i had 4 CR sections</p>
