Explanation:

Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper" revolves around the narrator and her "illness" that is post-partum depression. The story delves into what society expects or how society treats women and how that is at times the only problem that women ever want to be free of.

Since the unnamed narrator is suffering from a mental illness, her physician husband took her to an old mansion so that she can relax and heal quickly. But confined in a room and not allowed to work, the woman only began imagining all sorts of things, even believing the yellow wallpaper was coming to life. All she ever wanted was to have her freedom and power to do what she wants. But as society dictates, she is a woman and is not capable of doing things on her own.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

the answer a: perseverance !
