Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Expressing strong grief immediately does not necessarily indicate a quicker resolution of grief. Everyone experiences grief differently and there is no one "right" way to grieve. Some people may express their grief more intensely in the beginning, while others may process it more slowly over time.
