her dismissive attitude toward her husband
Explanation:
In the excerpt Regina continuously dismisses the idea that her husband is too tired to hear Ben's news. Both Horace and Ben tell her that Horace is tired and that whatever the news is it can wait. However, Regina keeps dismissing them. She insists that it be now and that everything must be settled this week. The passage does not show her feelings about any past decisions Horace has made. It also does not show an innate belief that she is inferior or a desire to be a traditional wife.

A. her dismissive attitude toward her husband.
