Question

In this excerpt from Charles Dickens’s Great Expectations, which two sentences suggest that the woman described is in some sort of transition?

A: She was dressed in rich materials,—satins, and lace, and silks,—all of white.

B: And she had a long white veil dependent from her hair, and she had bridal flowers in her hair, but her hair was white.

C: Dresses, less splendid than the dress she wore, and half-packed trunks, were scattered about.

D: She had not quite finished dressing, for she had but one shoe on,—the other was on the table near her hand,—her veil was but half arranged, her watch and chain were not put on, and some lace for her bosom lay with those trinkets, and with her handkerchief, and gloves, and some flowers, and a Prayer-Book all confusedly heaped about the looking-glass.
