Dear Naina,
Hope you have settled down is Mumbai and started off with your new job. Life without you quite boring out here. So a sudden thought occurred to me that why don’t I pen down a letter to you. So here I am writing to you about what’s going on in the City of Joy.
The winter season has set in soon this time so the pleasant weather has coloured the mood and feel of the city as well. Kolkata is prepping up for all the big fairs, festivals and more. Recently, the food festival “Ahare Bangla” was held in Salt Lake. Mom and I went to give our palates a treat! I missed you very much though my partner in crime! The festival had so many items. There were stalls from Japan, Russia and many more foreign countries.
Being a foodie, you know what had been my condition. I couldn’t understand where to start from. The Russian salad and the Japanese street food were my favourites. Also, last weekend the Pink ball Test match between India and Bangladesh was held in our prestigious Eden Gardens Stadium for which a day before the match most of the eminent buildings of Kolkata had dressed in pink colours to mark this historical event. Well, Christmas and New Year plus a number of fares are also coming up. I’ll keep you updated about them.
Do tell me about Mumbai and what you are up to. I will be waiting for your reply. Take care!
Your dearest friend,
Sakshi

Answer:
The correct answer is D. It characterizes the County Attorney as someone desirous of showing respect to women, even if he does not mean it.
Explanation:
The question refers to Glaspell's 'A Jury of Her Peers,' in which a woman kills her husband because of her unhappiness with the marriage. Namely, the woman felt trapped, helpless, cornered in this marriage even though the husband didn't physically or mentally abuse her. She felt as though her freedom was taken from her and it all culminated in her killing him, even though he was supposedly a good man.
The police comes to investigate the scene, along with the County Attorney and several neighbors. These neighbors, namely women, understand the motives behind the murder and are actually the ones to solve it whereas the men don't want to take them seriously. The County Attorney shows 'the gallantry of a young politician,' meaning that he pretends to respect what the women are trying to say, even though he doesn't really respect them. Politicians are stereotypically known to lie and hide their true thoughts, which is why the term is used here.
