"The Story of an Hour" was written by the famous author, Kate Chopin. Kate Chopin was a famous American author. She wrote many short stories and novels.

In her short story, 'The Story of an Hour', she narrates the feelings and the emotion of a wife when she heard the news of her husband's death in an accident.

The word 'absolutely' is used as procession or moving forward. When Louise Mallard heard of her husband, Brently's death she was shaken and was in grief.

I encountered this question before. The underlined idiom was "SHE PUT HER NOSE TO THE FIRE". This question also had choices. These were:

<span>She was cold as she wrote her speech, so she sat by the fire.
She worked hard to finish her speech for the assembly.
She was proud of the speech once she finished it.
She finished the speech in a very short amount of time.

The underlined idiom tells the reader that SHE FINISHED THE SPEECH IN A VERY SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME.

When you put your nose to the fire, you don't last long because of the heat. Thus, you only spend a short amount of time putting your nose to the fire.</span>
