Questions: Which word could replace winsome in the context of the text? A) Demanding B) Sorrowful C) Evil D) Charming Throughout Wuthering Heights, Brontë shows that the characters' social classes A) maintain peace in society. B) depend on their moral goodness. C) can never change. D) are a source of conflict.

The answer is D) Charming

The word "demanding" does not fit the context of the text. The character is described as having a look that can turn off bad temper, which suggests a positive and appealing demeanor rather than a demanding one.

"Sorrowful" implies sadness or grief, which does not align with the description of the character's look as one that can dispel bad temper. A sorrowful look would likely evoke sympathy or pity, not the ability to turn off bad temper.

"Evil" is the opposite of what is suggested by the context. An evil look would likely provoke fear or anger, not dispel bad temper.

"Charming" fits perfectly in the context. A charming look is one that is attractive and pleasing, which aligns with the description of the character's look as being able to turn off bad temper.

The answer is D) are a source of conflict.

Throughout "Wuthering Heights," social classes do not maintain peace. Instead, the novel depicts various conflicts and tensions arising from differences in social status.

The characters' social classes in "Wuthering Heights" are not depicted as depending on their moral goodness. Characters of various moral standings occupy different social classes, and their actions often defy moral expectations.

While social mobility is limited in the novel, it is not entirely impossible. Characters like Heathcliff experience changes in their social status, indicating that social classes can change, albeit with difficulty.

This is the most accurate answer. The novel frequently explores the tensions and conflicts that arise from differences in social class, such as the tumultuous relationship between Heathcliff and the Earnshaw family, and the struggles between the residents of Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange.
