Read the following excerpt from 'The Daughters of the Late Colonel by
Katherine Mansfield:
Well, at any rate, all that part of it was over, although neither of them could possibly believe that father was never coming back. Josephine had had a moment of absolute terror at the cemetery, while the coffin was lowered to think that she and Constantia had done this thing without asking his permission. What would father say when he found out? For he was bound to find out sooner or later. He always did. "Buried. You two girls had me buried" she heard his stick thumping. Oh, what would
they say?
Which sentence best states the idea this passage helps to develop?
O A. Josephine has so completely lost her grip on reality that she does
not realize her father's body is in the coffin.
O B. The colonel had such a commanding personality that he still
terrifies his daughters now that he is gone,
OC. Josephine and Constantia fear the thumping sound their father
makes with his stick when he is angry
O D. The colonel is only pretending to be dead to test his daughters
love for him, and he will soon return hom
