Read the following text from an article. This excerpt is about Tituba and the Salem Witch Trials of 1692. Who was it, demanded Hathorne, who tortured the poor girls? "The devil, for all I know," Tituba rejoined before she began describing him, to a hushed room. She introduced a full, malevolent cast, their animal accomplices and various superpowers. A sort of satanic Scheherazade, she was masterful and gloriously persuasive. Only the day before, a tall, white-haired man in a dark serge coat had appeared. . . . Had the man appeared to her in any other guise? asked Hathorne. Here Tituba made clear that she must have been the life of the corn-pounding, pea-shelling Parris kitchen. She submitted a vivid, lurid and harebrained report. More than anyone else, she propelled America's infamous witch hunt forward, supplying its imagery and determining its shape.

Based on this excerpt, what can you conclude about Tituba and the Salem Witch Trials of 1692?

A) Tituba was scared of the devil

B) Tituba was the one who hurt the Paris girls

C) Tituba told her story with enthusiasm

B) Tituba was the one who hurt the Paris girls

Explanation: Tituba is one of the most important characters in the story, she is the first person to confess to the authorities that she made witchcraft. When the court reporters asked her who hurt the girls, she said it was the devil that came to her, then she started to describe everything she "saw" along with him, such as black dogs, red cats, and yellow birds. Therefore, after these illogical confessions, we can assume that she was the culprit of said accusation.
