d) To demonstrate the daily struggles of ordinary women.

Explanation:

In "The Awakening," Chopin shows the difficulties that women faced in the midst of a patriarchal society with very strict roles for women, which demanded that they suppress their desires and dreams and sacrifice their own identity in the name of family happiness .
