Question

Which quote supports the statement "Mrs. Blewett is unkind to her workers"?

A. "Mrs. Blewett has a large family, you know, and she finds it hard to get help" (paragraph 2)

B. "She knew Mrs. Peter Blewett only by sight as a small, shrewish-faced woman without an ounce of superfluous flesh on her bones" (paragraph 4)

C. "A terrible worker and driver," Mrs. Blewett was said to be; and discharged servant girls told fearsome tales of her temper and stinginess." (paragraph 12)

D. "Humph! You don't look as if there was much to you." (paragraph 12)

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

I think the answer choice that best supports the statement is answer choice C. "A terrible worker and driver," Mrs. Blewett was said to be; and discharged servant girls told fearsome tales of her temper and stinginess." (paragraph 12)

This is because it says in the quote that girls told fearsome tales of her temper and stinginess, and considering as well that they got discharged (fired/no longer can have the job) from their job, it makes Mrs. Blewett look bad and that she is bad to her workers.
