Answer
The dialogue in paragraphs 129-145 suggests that Norma's motivations for pushing the button primarily revolve around her desire to improve her life. While tiredness of arguing with Arthur may contribute to her decision indirectly, it's not the central motivation. Similarly, there's no explicit indication that Norma seeks to become more adventurous. The notion of wanting to be part of a psychological experiment is not mentioned in the provided dialogue. Thus, the most plausible option is B. Norma believes she deserves a better life.
