Read this excerpt from "The Dinner Party." Which part of the text shows Elaine's lack of self-confidence? "Well, try them. I’ll rush and tell your father to host the drawing room as everyone arrives," said Mrs. Pringle. As she rushed away, Elaine phoned the Tuppers. Less bold or forthcoming than her mother, the timid girl stammered to the end of the conversation, then hung up and put her hand to her head in dismay. "What did I just do?" she wailed. "Dunham, oh Dunham." Dunham, still reeling from the stress of having his territory invaded earlier, rolled his eyes. "What is it, dear miss?" As Elaine was about to answer him, Mrs. Pringle appeared in the hallway as if out of thin air. Near tears, Elaine explained. "I invited Ella and the family and she accepted and then she said they had two house guests—and would it be all right and of course I said it would and now we’re—sixteen!"
