Which statement asserts that the married woman cares for worldly matters to please her husband?

• A. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord
• B. The whoredom of a woman may be known by her eyelids
• C. There is difference also between a wife and a virgin
• D. The married woman careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband

Answer: (D)

In this passage, Paul's point is that marital status shapes a woman's primary focus. The married woman is described as caring for the things of the world to please her husband, highlighting how her responsibilities and priorities center on the household and marriage. This specific description matches the idea expressed in the verse that contrasts the married and unmarried states. The other statements either describe the unmarried woman's focus on the things of the Lord, or refer to different contrasts within marriage (such as the distinction between wife and virgin) or other cautions that aren’t about a married woman’s worldly concerns to please her husband. The phrase about the married woman’s focus on worldly matters to please her husband is the one that directly conveys that idea.
