Question

REGINA. (to BEN) Horace would like to talk to you now.

HORACE. Horace would not like to talk to you now. I am very tired, Regina—
REGINA. (comes to him) Please. You’ve said we’ll try our best with each other. I’ll try. Really, I will. Please do this for me now. You will see what I’ve done while you’ve been away. How I watched your interests. (Laughs gaily) And I’ve done very well too. But things can’t be delayed any longer. Everything must be settled this week— (HORACE sits down. BEN enters. OSCAR has stayed in the dining room, his head turned to watch them. LEO is pretending to read the newspaper) Now you must tell Horace all about it. Only be quick because he is very tired and must go to bed. (HORACE is looking up at her. His face hardens as she speaks) But I think your news will be better for him than all the medicine in the world.
BEN. (looking at HORACE) It could wait. Horace may not feel like talking today.
REGINA. What an old faker you are! You know it can’t wait. You know it must be finished this week. You’ve been just as anxious for Horace to get here as I’ve been.

What does this excerpt emphasize about the character of Regina?

her dismissive attitude toward her husband
her anger toward her husband about his past decisions
her desire to be a traditional wife for her husband
her innate belief that she is inferior to her husband

Answer 1

her anger towards her husband about his past decisions

Answer 2

Her dismissive attitude toward her husband

Step-by-step explanation:

The text shows that Regina orders her husband to talk about something he does not feel comfortable talking about at that moment, which shows her contemptuous attitude toward her husband, because she does not care that he feels uncomfortable as long as he speaks what she wants

In addition, the text has no reference to Regina feeling angry about her husband, or Regina having a desire to be a traditional wife, or Regina feeling inferior to her husband.
