How did Carine learn that her brother died?

• A. Her husband told her.
• B. From her sister.
• C. She read it in a letter.
• D. She heard it from friends.

Answer: (A)

Receiving tragic news often comes through the most trusted close contact who is immediate and present in daily life. In this case, Carine learns of her brother’s death because her husband told her. That direct, personal channel is the quickest and most intimate way someone handles such overwhelming information, helping her process the shock with support from someone she’s connected to daily. The other options—hearing it from a sister, a letter, or friends—would involve additional steps or delays and aren’t the direct source described, making the husband’s role the most plausible and fitting way the news reached her in that moment.
