Read the excerpt from “The Monkey's Paw.”
She ran to the door, but her husband was before her, and catching her by the arm, held her tightly.
"What are you going to do?" he whispered hoarsely.
"It's my boy; it's Herbert!" she cried, struggling mechanically. "I forgot it was two miles away. What are you holding me for? Let go. I must open the door.
"For God's sake don't let it in," cried the old man, trembling.
"You're afraid of your own son," she cried, struggling. "Let me go. I'm coming, Herbert; I'm coming."

How does Mr. White’s reaction to Herbert’s coming home compare to that of his wife’s?

He is thrilled, but she is nervous.
He is horrified, but she is excited.
He is calm, but she is angry.
He is sorrowful, but she is happy.

Answer: Second Option

Explanation: He is horrified, but she is excited.

I've read this short story before in school and saw it performed at a play. After Mr and Mrs White's son dies, they use the Monkey paw to wish him back to life. But their son (Hilbert) is something dark and unnatural and is not the son they raised. But Mrs White is excited to see Hilbert no matter what he comes back as while Mr White is horrified and knows that whatever is behind that door, will not hug them with open arms.
