Which details from the historical fiction piece "Marie Curie and the Discovery of Radioactivity" supports Marie's factual statement?
During a particularly rigorous winter, it was not unusual for the water to freeze in the basin in the night; to be able to sleep I was obliged to pile all my clothes on the bedcovers.

(A) No one, the Curies included, had ever seen this element. Still, the husband-and-wife team had given it a name: radium.

(C) A moment later, people passing by the School of Physics and Chemistry were treated to a sight not often seen on the fashionable streets of Paris in the early 1900s: a bareheaded young woman in a laboratory smock, ripping eagerly into the pile of heavy sacks and burying her hands in . . . dirt?
(D) In the winter, it was so cold that she emptied her closet, piling the clothes on the bed so she'd be warm enough to sleep.
