“The Necklace” Anticipation Guide

Do not consider the truth of each of these statements; consider whether or not you agree or disagree with them, and explain your answer.

1. Lying is acceptable in some situations; you should always lie to save face.

2. Life sometimes hands you cruel situations; the best thing to do when this happens is to keep your suffering to yourself and find a way to get by.

3. Material goods, like clothing and cars, are extremely important to being happy. Money can’t buy happiness, but it definitely makes it easier to be happy.
