I get unreasonably angry with John sometimes. I'm sure I never used to be so sensitive. I think it is due to this nervous condition.

But John says if I feel so I shall neglect proper self-control; so I take pains to control myself - before him, at least,- and that makes me very
tired.
I don't like our room a bit. I wanted one downstairs that opened on the piazza and had roses all over the window, and such pretty old-
fashioned chintz hangings! but John would not hear of it
He said there was only one window and not room for two beds, and no near room for him if he took another.

What do the author's details reveal about the character of John?

A. He is very controlling of his wife.
B. He is interested in his wife's opinions.
C. He is selfless and generous toward his wife.
D. He is unconcerned with his wife's activities.
