Your question is missing the necessary options to be answered properly. I found the complete question online. It is as follows:

2.The description of Daisy's voice being "full of money" helps readers to understand that __________.

a.her voice literally sounds like money being counted into a cash register

b.she has changed from a likable poor girl into a spoiled rich woman

c.she is not someone who can be trusted to behave decently

d.her wealth is a defining and intrinsic aspect of her character

Answer:

I believe the best answer to be letter d. her wealth is a defining and intrinsic aspect of her character.

Step-by-step explanation:

Daisy is a character is F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby". The novel is narrated by Daisy's cousin Nick, but the protagonist is Gatsby, a mysterious millionaire who throws grand parties. It turns out that Gatsby and Daisy were in love in the past but, as he went off to war, she married Tom Buchanan. Unlike Tom and Daisy, Gatsby comes from a background of extreme poverty.

At a certain point in the novel, Nick notices there is something about Daisy's voice. He had already noticed her ability to mesmerize people with her talk, but now that he points it out to Gatsby, it is revealed to him what the power behind Daisy's voice really is. Gatsby says her voice is full of money. Daisy's voice, her conversation, and her mannerisms are all a result of her easy life. She does not know what it is to be concerned about money, bills, jobs etc. She knows having money is enough to conquer her a social spotlight while her flaws are ignored. It does not matter if she is not a good person, if she is selfish or cruel. Money protects her, and she knows it. Her voice conveys that certainty, the knowledge that she is safe no matter what happens. She can get away with anything.
