Answer:
To help the reader picture the separation between Grand Isle and the coast of Louisiana.
Explanation:
Kate Chopin's "The Awakening" revolves around the story of Edna Pontellier, a woman, and her desire of living her true self and being free to do that. The story deals with themes of independence, feminism, identity, freedom, etc.
The given passage is from the first chapter of the story where the narrator reveals the scene of the cottage at Grand Isle. The Pontelliers had come to the holiday spot to get away from New Orleans for a few days. And when the narrator reveals that the <em>"paper"</em> is a day old and that the <em>"Sunday papers had not yet reached Grand Isle"</em>, we can know that there is some distance between Grand Isle and New Orleans.
Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.
