In the beginning it states how some elderly people have gray hairs and wrinkles, but despite that they have sympathy and are young at heart. Then, it says how Aunt March doesn't have these abilities which helps us conclude that she is most likely a strict character. Continuing on, the text explains how she has many rules she likes to put into place. Therefore, we can conclude that the answer can't be that Aunt March is laid back or friendly. Also, the text never stated that Aunt March doesn't like Amy.

The Answer is: She is rigid

(Look in the dictionary and rigid means to be inflexible)

The correct answer is B. She is rigid

Explanation:

In the text, the narrator explains Aunt March is not like some old people that despite their age act friendly with children "But Aunt March had not this gift". This suggests on the opposite Aunt March is serious and rigid or strict, this is supported by the fact she is worried about rules "she worried Amy very much with her rules and orders" and she seems to want to control another character called Amy "the old lady felt it her duty to try and counteract". According to these details, it is possible to infer Aunt March is rigid or strict rather than friendly or laid-back.
