Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

The passage clearly describes Mrs. Tilley's struggle to catch the cow, whom she calls "horned torment", and states that she's been doing it for too long to blame anyone for simply lingering in that place. At the same time, she is happy that Sylvia... or anyone for that matter, is helping her perform this task.
