Answer 1

The correct answer is B. Picasso's paintings in his Rose Period were more cheerful than those in his Blue Period.

Step-by-step explanation:

The process of inferring in reading involves using key details in a text to deduce something. In the case of the text presented, which explains the life of Picasso and artistic periods, it can be inferred "Picasso's paintings in his Rose Period were more cheerful than those in his Blue Period". This is because the author of the text explains during the Blue Period Piccasso "painted sad-looking people", and focused on the theme of Isolation, which shows the artist's paintings during this period were sad or depressive. On the other hand, in the Rose Period, he focused on pink and rose tones, and also painted acrobats, harlequins, and elements related to the circle and comedy, which shows this period was more cheerful than the previous period, even when the author does not mention this directly.
