Read this excerpt from "Eavesdropping" by Eudora Welty and answer the question. What they talked about, I have no idea … . It was no doubt whatever a young married couple spending their first time privately in each other’s company in the long, probably harried day would talk about. It was the murmur of their voices, the back-and-forth, the unnoticed stretching away of time between my bedtime and theirs, that made me bask there at my distance. What I felt was not that I was excluded from them but that I was included, in – and because of – what I could hear in their voices and what I could see of their faces in the cone of yellow light under the brown-scorched shade. Which of the following best describes Welty’s purpose for this narrative in the excerpt? to interpret her life with commentary to entertain with stories to educate about marriage to give a sense of place

The Answer is to interpret her life with commentary.
Eudora Welty is an introvert writer where she would describe herself as very quiet and has a hard time communicating with others. As she wants to interpret her current experiences, she would eavesdrop on the people around her get herself some inspiration for her writing.
