The Dust Bowl During the 1930s, extreme drought and high winds made life incredibly difficult in the Great Plains region of the

United States. In many areas, rainfall was forty percent less than normal. The soil became extremely dry, and when strong winds blew, they created tremendous dust storms. These so-called “black blizzards” were so thick that they made daylight seem like dusk. During this terrible period, the Great Plains region of the United States was named the “Dust Bowl.” Over the next few years, the drought continued, and the winds created more dust storms. In some places, the drought and high winds lasted for eight years. Many people wondered if the black blizzards would ever end. What role does the underlined sentence serve in this paragraph? It is a fact that serves as a supporting detail. It is a statistic that serves as a supporting detail. It is an example that serves as a supporting detail. It is the topic sentence.

Which of the following excerpts from part one of Trifles suggests that Mrs. Hale believes Mrs. Wright may have had a motive for
NeTakaya

Answer:

The correct answer to the question: Which of the following excerpts from part one of "Trifles" suggest that Mrs. Hale believes Mrs. Wright may have had a motive for killing her husband, would be, MRS. HALE: She used to wear pretty clothes and be lively, when she was Minnie Foster, one of the town girls, singing in the choir.

Explanation:

"Trifles", a play that was written by Susan Glaspell, and which was first presented in 1916, narrates the story of the investigation of the murder of John Wright, and the process that takes place as his wife, Mrs. Wright is suspected of having committed the act. During the scene where the County Attorney, the Sheriff, Mr. Hale and the two latters´ wives come into the Wright home, the two women: Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters, are left in the kitchen. As they observe the scene before them, the two of them start to notice some things that seem strange to them, especially given what they know about the role of a wife. But there is a specific moment when Mrs. Hale, accompanying Mrs. Peters into the front room closet, tells the latter, after she remarks on the coldness of the room, that Mrs. Wright changed a lot after her marriage to Mr. Wright, that she used to be much happier and involved in activities in town, while now, after her marriage, she has become isolated and seems sadenned all the time. This remark from Mrs. Hale points to the fact that the woman is already observing the evidence and gathering conclusions from what she can see around her, and from what she knows about Mrs. Wright.
