Answer:
C. Sykes is a violent man who has killed three women
Explanation:
This is the question regarding Zora Neale Hurston's short story "Sweat".
The story tells about Delia, a wash-woman, who is married to Sykes, an abusive, unfaithful, violent husband.
The particular question refers to the scene where few local men, after seeing Delia carrying laundry on her pony, start talking about her.
They first noticd how hardworking she is and how fifteen years of bad marriage changed her appearance.
Then they start talking about her husband, Sykes, blaming him for mistreating his wife, expressing their lack of nice words for him.
However, although considering him violent, they don't state that he has killed three women; they only say the amount of beating Delia took was enough to kill three women, which can be seen from the line:
"He done beat huh ‘nough tuh kill three women, let ‘lone change they looks,” said Elijah Moseley.
