Answer:
B. The excerpt provides background information on a character as part of the exposition.
Explanation:
Kate Chopin's "The Awakening" revolves around the story of a woman, Mrs. Pontellier, and her desire to be free to do the things she always wanted. The story is a feminist novella that focuses the main plot and theme around the desires and plans of the female character.
In the given excerpt, the author describes Mr. Pontellier, a supporting character to the main character. Richard is the husband of Edna Pontellier, and the given passage provides background information on him.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
