Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

'A Good Man is Hard To Find' is a short story written by Flannery O'Connor. The story revolves around the theme of good versus evil and prospect of God's grace.

The grandmother, in the short story, is portrayed with her selfishness and superficiality about the world. This superficial view of the world of the grandmother is revealed when the family encountered The Misfits and pleades them thinking that they would not kill a lady.

The passage from the story, that supports this claim of superficial view of the grandmother is when even after witnessing the murder of her family she tried to flatter The Misfit by her words. She thought that through her flattering words, The Misfit would spare her life. She reveals how much superficial the grandmother was.

Thus option C is correct.
