         <description><![CDATA[<p>I think the author's purpose in writing this story was to entertain and get a laugh out of us or just get an emotion because there was nothing to inform about neither persuade so it has to be entertain and through the story it just talked about her feeling bad for not having jewelry and at the very end she loses it and works hard for it but it turns out to be fake and gave me a laugh.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I think the author's purpose in writing "The Necklace" is to entertain the reader with a descriptive story with irony. The author uses descriptive language to immerse the reader into the story to imagine the setting, and to describe the character's personality and their responses to things. An example of irony would be at the end where the necklace turns out to be worth nothing after years of the woman and man working bare-to-the-bone to pay off their debt to buy an expensive one. These examples contribute to the overall message that you should tell the truth, because if the woman just told the truth she wouldn't be caught up in that mess.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I think the author's purpose is to tell the readers to be honest because if she was honest with her in the first place then she never would have been poor for ten years.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I think the author uses descriptive language in "The Necklace" to show that regardless of what you have you shouldn't compare yourself to others, this helps develop the characters value.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I think that the authors purpose for writing The Necklace is to inform the reader about a lesson in which I think the lesson is that you should always be honest due to the fact that they are talking about how they had to buy a 40000 dollar necklece and it ended up being a custom if they had came clean they would have spent 0 dollars and would not have been overworked due to the perticuler circumstances I think that is why the author wrote the book to inform the reader to always be honest so that you dont end up like them who indefentialy where overworked for the next ten years and if they had been honest they would be out of the circumstance</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The purpose of writing the necklace is to entertain because they never informed us of any information and they never tried to argue for us to believe something. The descriptive language is to help us imagine and understand the characters and setting better.</p>]]></description>
