a myth is something that is told for many years that u go looking for and cant find and a truth is something that u can find in real life and can be story's of for example:

mermaid's and unicorns: u can't find them at all so they can be a myth cause u hear story's about them once u go looking for them u won't find them.

dinassours(can't spell): u hear story's about them at school by ur friends and one day ur dad takes u to a museum and u find fossils of them so u realize they are real and not fake.

the narrator is saying that the old lady made her feel uncomfortable. you know this because they say "i found that rather irksome", "perhaps it was her being so upright and trim", and "i don't think it was that, because i thought that quaintly pleasant." hope this !
