Mrs. Mallard's reaction to the news of her husband's death is that of a woman freed from a long prison term. She is shocked into silent disbelief, overcome with emotion, struck with a sense of relief at being free from the burden of marriage. She is now a widow who will be accepted in society, free to make choices, to have friends, to attend social events, to decide each day what she will do, according to what she wants. No more bending to the will of a husband, whom she loved most of the time.
Mrs. Mallard's reaction is not the typical hysteria, crying and grieving of a wife who has lost her husband, the man she loves. Louise Mallard sits in her room, staring out the window, imaging the life she will now have, free to choose, to explore her likes and dislikes.
Mrs. Mallard lives a lifetime in the space of one hour as she imagines what she will do with all her new freedom. She journeys in her mind, wandering free to enjoy and appreciate the life she sees through her window.
Sadly, her new life is brief, cut short by the abrupt return of Mr. Mallard, who was not anywhere near the train accident. His poor wife, so overcome by his return, along with her bad heart, is so stricken, that she dies right there on the spot. Mrs. Mallard's heart gave out, she was unable to bear the thought of living under the control of her husband, not after she imagined the life she could have alone.

. Brute strength cannot defeat faith and courage.
Explanation:
Goliath is known to be a man of stature with great strength. However, the story of David is that, with faith that he can win, and with the courage to carry out the task, he can accomplish what is thought to be the impossible feat, which is to kill the champion of the Philistine army.
Some of the other answers are correct, but is not the best summary of the THEME in itself. For example, slingshots are truly effective weapons of it's day and age, being easy to train with and effective against not only unarmored but also poorly armored individuals. Highly trained slingshotters are able to hit unarmored parts, and proved to be extremely effective in certain cases. B is correct if you are to look through the lens of Goliath rather than David. On many accounts following his death, Goliath understimated his opponent, and even taunted the Israelite army for "sending out a dog to fight". He was sorely mistaken, and that led to his downfall.
A is the only answer that is definitely not correct, as there was no kindness involved, unless putting someone to eternal sleep is the hidden kindness for the pains of this world.
