Answer 1

The correct answer is C; John does not allow her to eat more than two meals a day.

Further Explanation:

The excerpt listed in the question is from the short story "The Yellow Wall-Paper." In the story, John is the husband and is also a doctor that is caring for his mentally ill wife. She is kept in an upstairs nursery to try and use the "rest technique" to get well.

In the story, he does prescribe several things for his wife so that she can attempt to get better. He doesn't allow her to write anymore even though she wants too. She has a nanny to care for the baby they have, since she is to nervous to care for the baby herself. She can't walk in the garden because John thinks it will cause her more issues.

After reading the story, there is no statements about her eating only twice a day. The husband does speak several times about her regaining her appetite and looking better and encourages her to eat her meals even when he isn't home.

Answer 2

C. John does not allow her to eat more than two meals a day.

EXPLANATION:

John does not allow her wife to write because she is most of the time quite exhausted to write because of her medical condition “hysteria” and strict daily schedule.  And John does not permit the narrator to take care of the baby because he thinks she is suffering from a rare medical condition because of which she won’t be able to take a proper care of the child as she herself needs ample rest.

Moreover, John also restricts her from walking in around in the delicious garden outside their house as he wanted her to rest in the renovated nursery on the top floor of the house.  

The story mentions all the three points except the point of eating the meal only twice. in fact, he is seen insisting her to eat more.
