Answer: She did not hear the story as many women have heard the same, with a paralyzed inability to accept its significance
Explanation:
This excerpt is from the short story, <em>The Story of an Hour</em> which tells the story of Mrs. Mallard who had just received news that her husband had passed away.
After weeping for a time she warms up to this fact and is actually looking forward to living her life without being under a man. Her joy is short-lived however as her husband did survive. She then dies from a sort of heart attack.
From the excerpt, the sentence that shows Mrs. Mallard was a sensible woman was, <em>She did not hear the story as many women have heard the same, with a paralyzed inability to accept its significance </em>because she seemed to have understood the significance of her husband dying immediately unlike, as the story posits, most women who would have been unable to accept the significance of the news immediately.
