Answer:
<em>"at the bareness of the walls, at the shabby chairs, the ugliness of the curtains".</em>
Explanation:
Guy de Maupassant's "The Necklace" revolves around the story of a woman who wanted badly to be among the elite class of their society. And in her want to do that, she and her husband attended a party on borrowed 'necklace' which they lost and had to sacrifice their own money to cover up for the loss.
Mathilde's need to be along the 'beautiful, rich, elite section of the society was one of her most wanted desires. And it was because of this feeling of want that led to the borrowing of the necklace in the first place. And when they lost it after the party, they had no choice but to recoup the loss and spend their savings on paying back for the lost 'treasure'. But the irony is that they did not realize the truth about the lost necklace and thus, spent their life's savings on paying for fake jewelry while they had to suffer immeasurably to not embarrass themselves among the others.
The group of words that helps the readers get to know or understand the meaning of the word "poverty" can be found in the phrases <em>"at the bareness of the walls, at the shabby chairs, the ugliness of the curtains"</em>. All these words clearly suggest the impoverished nature of Mathilde.

There was very high unemployment during this time, particularly in industrial working-class areas in northern England, such as Liverpool - where Russell is from and where the play is set.
