Read this part of the story. What does the Baroness mean when she said Amalie wants “to make herself out of some consequence”?
A) Amalie was angry that her family was once rich but then became poor.
B) The Baroness thought Amalie was trying to get them to feel sorry for her.
C) The Baroness believed Amalie’s mind had become frail and confused.
D) Amalie did not realize how sad and upset her words made the Baroness.
The correct answer is B) The Baroness thought Amalie was trying to get them to feel sorry for her.
Explanation: When the Baroness states that Amalie wants “to make herself out of some consequence,” she implies that Amalie is seeking sympathy or attention from others, possibly by exaggerating her difficulties or emotional state. This suggests that the Baroness perceives Amalie’s behavior as a way to gain recognition or pity, rather than addressing her situation authentically.
