It is logical to infer that Mrs. Sommers avoided "such morbid retrospection" because a) she wanted to stay focused on her daily activities.

Explanation:

In the short story ‘The Silk Stockings’ by Kate Chopin, Mrs. Sommers was a one-time rich lady born into a poor family where she had to do all her household chores and look after her children.

Though she had seen better days as per her neighbors, but then she didn’t go into any morbid retrospection as she didn’t want to think of her past days as that wouldn’t help her at all in her present life. She wanted to work hard and spend money on her family and that too economically. So option a is the right answer.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

Read the excerpt from "the love song of j. alfred prufrock." let us go, through certain half-deserted streets, the muttering retreats of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels and sawdust restaurants with oyster-shells: how is this excerpt an example of dramatic monologue? the narrator is using long, interconnected sentences. the narrator is able to see into two character's heads. the narrator is addressing the audience directly. the narrator is jumping from one topic to the next topic
