The correct answer is D: People can act unpredictably when. they are betrayed by someone they love.​

Step-by-step explanation:

This text talks about Mary Maloney and her marriage where only she is committed and interested in her marriage, while her husband basically does not participate, as if he were mentally absent from their marriage.

Mary feels betrayed because of her husband's behavior, and one day she impulsively hits her husband in his head with a frozen lamb leg. Her reaction is impulsive because she is disappointed at her husband and decides to hurt him as she hurts her with his behavior.
