Explanation:
In chapter 24 of "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee, the character of Scout has a turning point in her personality after seeing some realities that she had ignored so far from the word of "ladies" she had always been a tomboy and admired the behavior and interaction between man for considering it more honest but when she saw how her AUnt interacted as a lady and defend what she believed in she took her as a role model and decided to act like a lady.
The reason for this is that Aunt Alexandra is a traditional woman who cares about what other people say about her. She shows she cares about the situation, and the involvement in it.
The correct answer is <em>C, regretful</em>. This is because the narrator is talking about the past and feels bad because she couldn't do anything to change it. In fact, she regrets that she couldn't attend to the same school that her best friends moved to.
