Answer:

The most effective way to combine sentences 4 and 5 would be:

The umbrella was designed because Royalty demanded protection from the sun.

This way, we can eliminate the generic word "people" and avoid using "for this purpuse," which is merely a reference to the previous sentence.

In this play, the attorney is trying to find out what happened to Mr. Wright and how he died (apparently strangled, but suspected murdered). Mrs. Peters finds the bird, that was supposed to be in the bird cage, strangled. She interprets this as the preparation to the killing of Mr. Wright and hides the bird in a box. The fact that the ladies in the scene have agreed to not disclose the contents of the box and continue to hide it, let us know that the best answer here is option C.
