Which of the following inferences is best supported by this passage (paragraph 14)?
The party was a grand success. Even the intensely critical small fry dancing on the pavement without to the scraping and fiddling of the string
band, had to admit that. So far as they were concerned it was all right, but what shall we say of the guests within? They who glided easily over the
canvassed floors, bowed, and scraped and simpered, "just like the big folks on the Avenue," who ate the ice-cream and cake, and drank the
sweet, weak Catawba wine amid boisterous healths to Mr. and Mrs. Hart and the Misses Hart; who smirked and perspired and cracked ancient
jokes and heart-rending puns during the intervals of the dances, who shall say that they did not enjoy themselves as thoroughly and as fully as
those who frequented the wealthier entertainments up-town.
O A The Harts couldn't afford to have ice cream, cake, and wine like parties held uptown.
B. Unlike parties held uptown, the guests at the Harts' party genuinely enjoyed themselves,
C. The Avenue is a wealthier, more fashionable area than the Harts' neighborhood.
