Know the Answer?

Bridget Leonard · Answer 1

I think it would be C

Marely Galvan · Answer 2

The answer would be "B" because the passage says that she saw "a long procession of years to come." The answer would not be "A" because the passage said that Mrs. Mallard's years would belong to her, and no one else. Finally, the answer would not be "C" or "D" because the passage said she"saw beyond that bitter moment".
