Question

Emily grieves for the letters and cards she's not allowed to keep at the convalescent home, and she doesn't accept much affection or food upon her return home. What is the best inference we can make from this information?

Answer 1

I'm sorry if I'm not entirely correct, I'm going with the information given to me.

The best inference I can make is that Emily lives in an abusive/not very safe environment. The best solution to this problem would be to seek real care in a better convalescent home.

Hope I helped!

Answer 2

Answer:

D). Her months in Convalescent home were traumatic.

Explanation:

Emily is struggling with grief as she is not being allowed to keep the letters and cards at her convalescent home. She is going through a tough time. She has been confined and not provided with the liberty to possess her thoughts and actions.

The continuous detention has left her in an awful state that she loses all the concern even for food even after returning to her home. Thus, the best inference of the statements provided here would be that 'her days at the convalescent home were traumatic as it is reflected by her condition and state of mind.
