Which details from the historical fiction piece "Marie Curie and the Discovery of Radioactivity" supports Marie's factual statem

ent?
During a particularly rigorous winter, it was not unusual for the water to freeze in the basin in the night; to be able to sleep I was obliged to pile all my clothes on the bedcovers. In the same room I prepared my meals with the aid of an alcohol lamp and a few kitchen utensils. These meals were often reduced to bread with a cup of chocolate, eggs or fruit.


(A) No one, the Curies included, had ever seen this element. Still, the husband-and-wife team had given it a name: radium.


(B) She also met the man who soon became her husband—Pierre Curie, a brilliant young physicist as promising (and poor) as Marie.


(C) A moment later, people passing by the School of Physics and Chemistry were treated to a sight not often seen on the fashionable streets of Paris in the early 1900s: a bareheaded young woman in a laboratory smock, ripping eagerly into the pile of heavy sacks and burying her hands in . . . dirt?


(D) In the winter, it was so cold that she emptied her closet, piling the clothes on the bed so she'd be warm enough to sleep.

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.
