Question

what does mary warren admit to danforth in act iii?
a. that she and the girls were lying
b. that elizabeth proctor is innocent
c. that abigail williams is really a witch
d. that she had an affair with john proctor

Explanation:

In Act III of The Crucible, Mary Warren is pressured to tell the truth about the girls' accusations of witchcraft. She confesses that she and the other girls fabricated their stories of being bewitched. Option B is incorrect because while she implies Elizabeth's innocence, her core admission is about the girls' lies. Option C is wrong as she never claims Abigail is a witch. Option D is false, as that affair was between Abigail and John Proctor, not Mary.

Answer:

A. That she and the girls were lying
