Answer:
C. Section 55 - Her mind was still on the ball. His mind was on work the next day.
Explanation:
As one of Maupassant's themes is the "differences between men and women", we see that option C is the only reference that actually shows the contrast.

Notice that "interception" has some extra letters: -ion. This is a suffix, that is, a group of letters added to a word with the purpose of changing it. While "intercept" is a verb, "interception" is a noun, precisely because of the addition of the suffix. "Interception" means the action of intercepting, that is, of preventing someone or something that is moving toward a destination.
