Answer:

A. She tries to make her life more interesting.

Explanation:

Lucy Maud Montgomery's classic children's novel "Anne of Green Gables," tells the story of orphaned Anne Shirley and her mistaken 'adoption' to the Cuthberts. The story delves into the life of Anne in navigating her life with the Cuthbert siblings, the town, and in school.

Anne had been 'mistakenly' taken to the Cuthbert family who had expected to adopt a boy to help them in the farm-work. The Cuthbert siblings were reluctant to get a girl orphan, Anne, who, with her own insecurity, dreaded being rejected again. Despite her real name being Anne Shirley, when asked what her name was, she replied "I would love to be called Cordelia. It’s such a perfectly elegant name." This shows how she wanted to infuse 'color' in her life, to make it more interesting.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

C)the horses drawing the sun

Juliet is addressing the horses drawing the sun. She uses the words "gallop" and "steeds" to describe them. Also, in the background information provided, it says that Phoebus has a "horse-drawn chariot that travels across the sky each day." The sun is not a steed, nor it is plural. The same is true of Phoebus and Phoebus's chariot. Therefore, these options are all eliminated. The horses are the only possible answer.
