Answer: A

Explanation: Due to Women's circumstance during Elizabethan times, it would be surprising to see great talent emerge from a female writer.

Woolf sustained that in the Elizabethan time, a woman (Shakespeare's fictional sister in her example) could have been just as gifted as her brother but she wouldn't have received the same education or given the same chances and space to become a writer.
