The correct answer choice is b because the sentence is about the patients
Stage directions in this excerpt from Act II, Scene 1 of Lorraine Hansberry's "A Raisin in the Sun" add to the reader's understanding of the characters by providing information about their personalities and ways of being.
From the directions we can infer that Beneatha is a woman that likes to impress and get the attention of people. She seems to be shallow and conceited. She parades in front of Ruth to show of her new dress make her jealous. She makes a big entrance so that we "can see her thoroughly robed in the costume Asagai brought".
She is arrogant and self-center and has little regard for other people and their lives. We can see this when she "promenades to the radio and, with an arrogant flourish, turns off the good loud blues that is playing". She calls Ruth's music junk, being completely rude and incosiderate.
Ruth, on the other hand, is portrayed as a working woman, since, at the beginning of the excerpt she is "ironing <em>again</em>".
She appears to be a woman easily impressed, due to her reaction upon seeing Beneath's new dress: "she puts down the iron in fascination".
She is also potraited as someone submissive that does not complain about being trated poorly. This can been seen with her reaction to Beneatha's insults to her music. She does not respond, she just "goes to the phonograph and puts on a record and turns and waits ceremoniously for the music to come".

One day, while chopping a tree near the river, the axe slipped out of his hand and fell into the river. The river was very deep and since that was his only axe, he worried.
He prayed to God for his axe. He prayed so sincerely that God actually appeared! When He asked Ram what the problem was, he told Him the whole episode. God, then put his hand into the river and took out a silver axe. The woodcutter said it wasn’t his. God continued looking and then found a golden axe.
The woodcutter refused to accept it too! What good is a golden axe to a poor woodcutter? He needed his iron axe. God finally smiled and pulled out his iron axe. The woodcutter was extremely happy and thanked God for finding his axe. God was very happy with his honesty. So, he rewarded him by giving him the silver and the golden axe too! The woodcutter was overwhelmed and jumped with joy!
