To answer your question based on the context provided by the passages from "Jane Eyre" and "Jane" (a modern retelling), we can evaluate the roles and characteristics described in the excerpts.

  1. For the first blank, based on the relationship dynamic present in both versions of the story, the correct option would likely be B. employer, as the character representing Mr. Rochester or his modern counterpart typically holds a position of authority or employment over Jane.

  2. For the second blank, if the passages involve discussing a character who is notable for their status, the correct option might be B. wealthy, considering that Mr. Rochester is depicted as a man of significant means both in the original and likely in the modern retelling.

So the completed statements would be:

"In both excerpts, the characters discuss their employer, who is wealthy."

The answers are:

  1. B. employer
  2. B. wealthy
