C
It supports the idea that women had to fight to achieve rights.
D
It clarifies Mrs. Wright’s role as a housewife.

Explanation

The bird represents Mrs. Wright’s own lively spirit and desire for freedom. When her husband silences the bird, it reflects how he controls and suppresses her in their home. This reinforces the injustice she experiences in a male-dominated household, making B the best answer.
