This short story is called “Sweat”, written by <u><em>Zora Neale Hurston.</em></u>
Question: How does the author's characterization of Bertha help reveal Delia's attitude toward Sykes' affairs?
Answer: C. By describing only Bertha's negative characteristics, the author hints at Delia's confidence in her own desirability as a wife.
Delia had for some time already been fed up with her no-good husband and she knew that she was the breadwinner in the home, so in fact she did not need him to live happily ever after. Therefore, she was confident in her own desirability as a wife.
Honestly, I would guess C. The author compares grief to a wet mop to show that when the time for grieving ends, each person must let go of it on his or her own.
She is a wrathful woman,She is not very bright would be all that applies.
<span>C) The author provides a personal example and a reference to a movie to support his idea.

Then he references the film "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" to continue making his point.</span>
