Answer:

B: her independence

Step-by-step explanation:

In literary works, the traits of characters can be presented either as the narrator directly describes the character or as the characters' behaviors, decisions, action, and values suggest to the reader the traits of a character. In the case of the excerpt presented, the action of Audrey to "o longer just attend meetings" and instead "act on her own" shows Audrey is independent as she opposes situations and actions she does not feel good about and instead decides to be loyal to her feelings and beliefs. Thus, the trait that is highlighted in this excerpt is "her independency".

Hope this helps!!
