If a glass or cup is dropped and broken, embarrassed apologies will not put it together again, but a word of sincere regret to the

hostess will relieve the awkwardness of the moment, and will be as gratifying to her as profuse apologies ... Sometimes a cup of

coffee or a glass of water is overturned at the table. This is, of course, a very serious and unpleasant accident, but there is no

necessity in making matters worse by fussing about it and offering several exaggerated apologies. A simple word or two to the

hostess will suffice.

Which would be a proper thesis for the section labeled table accidents?

A)

If a guest breaks something, he should replace it.

B)

Accidents should be dealt with quickly and quietly.

C)

One should avoid fancy dinners because of accidents.

D)

There are ways to prevent spilling coffee at the dinner table.

    Explanation:

    Immediately eliminate D and C. D is inevitable, and will eventually come. Avoiding a certain situation without a reason is rude, and not a proper response. It's either limited between A and B. Yes, accidents should be dealt with quickly and quietly. However, the host should be notified. The proper response would be A, depending on the person.
