Answer:

The answer is indeed letter D) She has nothing appropriate to wear to the formal ball.

Explanation:

Mathilde is a character in Guy de Maupassant's "The Diamond Necklace". She is utterly dissatisfied with her financial condition in life. She despises her own furniture, for instance, since she believes she deserves better because she has good taste. When her husband shows her the invitation to the ball, instead of being thrilled by this opportunity to mingle with the society she admires so much, Mathilde is mortified; she thinks she has nothing to wear, no fine jewelry to flaunt.

Since they can't afford it, her husband suggests that she borrow something from a friend, which Mathilde does. She then goes to the ball wearing what she believes to be an expensive diamond necklace. Mathilde, upon losing the necklace, desperately buys a new one to replace it, and gives it back to her friend. She and her husband go bankrupt trying to pay for the expensive jewelry only to find out, a long time afterward, that the first necklace was fake.
