It was almost time to push. Marie had never been so

scared in her life or in so much pain! The doctor said she
could push when she had dilated enough. That was at 3
a.m. It had been three hours and it was finally time! Marie
was ready to see her baby. With all her strength, she held
her breath and pushed.
What can you infer from the text?
A. Marie is in pain and is tired.
OB. Marie is young.
C. Marie is in labor.
D. Marie pushed.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The context clues in the text refer to Marie "pushing" and being "dilated" which means that she is in labor. Another clue is when the text says "It had been three hours and it was finally time! Marie was ready to see her baby."
