A summary of 'The Necklace' by Guy de Maupassant, which tells the story of Mathilde Loisel who borrows a seemingly expensive necklace, loses it, and faces the harsh consequences of replacing it, only to discover it was costume jewelry.
The Necklace is a classic tale by Guy de Maupassant that delves into themes of aspiration, deception, and the stark disparity between social classes. It tells the story of Madame Mathilde Loisel who is dissatisfied with her middle-class life and yearns for wealth and luxury. When she is invited to a high-society ball, she borrows a necklace from her friend to complement her outfit. After the ball, Mathilde discovers that the necklace is lost. Rather than admitting this to her friend, she and her husband replace it with an expensive duplicate, pushing themselves into extreme debt. Many years later, after they have worked tirelessly to repay this debt, Mathilde learns that the original necklace was not made of diamonds but rather costume jewelry, making their sacrifices unnecessary and tragically ironic.

One day, a boy named Timmy wanted to go skiing with his friends. Ever since little Timmy was a toddler, he'd watch athletes on tv skiing or snowboarding. He was always mesmerized, and wanted to be just like them. Because of that, his parents allowed him to go on this small trip with friends.
And here we are, young Timothy is skiing and doing his best. He's very inexperienced though, which is why he didn't notice the big rock up ahead. He was too busy trying to keep his balance!
He crashed right into the rock, and flew upwards! His helmet flying off of his head, crash landing about 20 feet away from him. He landed in the snow with a loud crushing noise, he was shoulder deep! He could not get out on his own.
Just as Timothy thought all hope was lost, he started hearing a Helicopter noise from above him. He was being rescued!
Men got out from the helicopter with their dogs. Timothy noticed that the dog was sniffing around the snow, in search for him. Eventually, the good doggy finally found him! The men and women working to find him pulled him out together, and carried him back to safety.
"We wouldn't have found you without good 'ol Bessy here! She caught on to your scent, sniffed you out of the snow, and found you!" said one of the workers.
Timothy felt in his heart a new sense of warmth and gratitude for human's best friend. He smiled lovingly at the furry savior of his, and thanked God for another living day.
