Reread the first two paragraphs-what is the author's likely purpose for including this introduction?
A To highlight just how difficult it is to properly
maintain a kitchen and household
B To compare Martha Hale's habits with Mrs. Wright's,
making Mrs. Hale's judgement seem hypocritical
c To foreshadow a similar scene in the Wrights'
kitchen and later support Mrs. Hale's idea that
something sudden must have happened
D To foreshadow Mrs. Hale's participation in Mrs.
Wright's crime, setting them as equals or mirrors of
each other
