Answer

**PART A:** D. The event emphasizes how much Mrs. Pringle cares about her daughter marrying a good man, and she encourages Elaine to marry Mr. Farnsworth **PART B:** D. "Didn't I always/say that Oliver Famsworth was the most considerate of men?" (Paragraph 104)

Explanation

The play satirizes Mrs. Pringle's obsession with appearances. The Prince's absence, despite her elaborate attempts to secure him as a guest, highlights the futility of her social climbing. The resolution occurs because Oliver Farnsworth, understanding the situation, sends a substitute "Prince" to save the dinner party. This act emphasizes his consideration for Mrs. Pringle's predicament, a quality she values and uses to encourage Elaine to see his positive traits.
