The excerpt best supports the following inference about Nora: "She is glad that she finally has money to spend on gifts for the holidays."
- We are told that she has money for these Christmas holidays, but did not have much before: "This is the first Christmas that we have not needed to economize."
- Several indicators show that she is happy about being able to buy things. She insists that it was a good thing: "we really can" and "we may be a wee bit more reckless now, mayn't we?"

Explanation:
Unlike the perfect rhyme, where both the consonants and vowels at the end of words rhyme completely, the slant rhyme is a type of rhyme where words end in similar, but not identical sounds.
In most cases, words that form the slant rhyme end in identical consonants and different vowels. We can notice this in the given poem as well. Words <em>light </em>and <em>weight</em> end in the same consonant (sound expressed by the combination of letters <em>ght</em>), but different vowels (sounds expressed by letters <em>i</em> and <em>ei</em>). This is why these words create a slant rhyme.
The rest of the words rhyme completely.
