    The correct answer is Parris's behavior in this section is not consistent to what we have already learned about his character.

    Explanation:

    Parris is a reverend in Salem, who has taken more than three years to earn people's respect.

    In these lines the inconsistency of their acts can be observed since we have learned that he never liked children until the crisis in Salem occurred; he asked his niece insistently if she and his daughter had done anything else that day in the forest, if they had invoked some spirit. And yet, when he is seen talking in these lines, he firmly assures that there is no witchcraft in what happened with his daughter Betty.

    His behavior is not only inconsistent, but also unethical for a reverend. Since he decides to put his personal interests first, such as the preservation of his position in the parish or the life of his daughter, instead of acting as a reverend is supposed to act.
