What are some similarities and differences between America vs the world?

You can't compare America to the world. America is apart of the world.

character development is the internal change an individual, a fictional one in this case, undergoes through the course of a story as a result of the conflict or conflicts that person encounters. options 1,2 and 5 don't offer much of this since they mostly just describe the momentary actions and reactions of edna pontellier. in kate chopin's the awakening we first meet edna as someone in a sort of semi-conscious state and completely unaware of her own feelings and ambitions. as the story progresses she becomes more self aware of these ambitions and gaining also the confidence to act on them on quotes 3 and (mostly on) 4 we begin to see these changes on her.
