Solution

The events that best describe the pressures in court that eventually cause Mary Warren to change her story a second time are:

  1. Governor Danforth's insistence that she will confess to seeing spirits or she will hang. This threat of execution puts immense pressure on Mary Warren to change her story in order to save her own life.

  2. Mocking in the form of repeating everything she says, from the girls. This form of psychological pressure and bullying from her peers can cause Mary Warren to doubt her own version of events and change her story.

John Proctor's reminder about God's disapproval of liars and a true confession about what she knows is the truth to clear her conscience are not direct pressures from the court. They are more related to her personal beliefs and moral compass.
