Answer:

B. I can kill and clean a hog as mercilessly as a man.

Step-by-step explanation:

In "Everyday Use," we encounter a mother and her two daughters, Dee and Maggie. The mother in the story is a strong and hard worker, as she explains in these lines. She compares herself to a man, and in doing so, she realizes she is equally capable than any of them. She tells us that she can kill and clean a hog in the same merciless way, which requires significant strength and hard work.
