Question
4. PART B: Which detail from the text best supports the answer to Part A?
Answer:
If I'm not wrong sentence two " You might say that when this
happens, the rock is getting sunburned." and sentence four "But while the rock is buried underground—before running water chews it out of the desert floor—it’s shaded from cosmic rays, so no beryllium-10 develops."
is the the two examples showing personification.
Explanation:
In this sentence: "You might say that when this
happens, the rock is getting sunburned." a rock cannot get sunburned so it's using personification giving human things to non-humans.
and in this sentence: But while the rock is buried underground—before
running water chews it out of the desert floor—it’s shaded
from cosmic rays, so no beryllium-10 develops." It shows personification because it says "before running water chews it out of the desert floor" and we know that water can't chew.

Edna has the gift of recognizing her wishes and having the courage to follow and conquer them. She does not deprive herself of social concepts in relation to women and acts according to her own convictions. This is a strong gift, as it is not easy for anyone, even nowadays, to follow everything they most want without caring about society's opinion and judgments.
However, Edna's gift also causes problems for her. This is because, her attitude generates judgments not only to her, but her family, especially to her children, causing them to be harmed. This retracts Edna and is capable of causing even her death.

The mother, Lydia, decides to close the house and move to a common house, because she is concerned about the children's situation.
