Question

Which sentence from the passage suggests that the father was struggling to make a decision concerning which babysitter he should hire?

A) Obviously, he hired the other woman.
B) ‘Good help is hard to find.’
C) Both women were in their forties and very pleasant, and he thought that either of them would do an excellent job.
D) A week later, the father read in a newspaper that the woman he did not hire had severely injured a little girl she was babysitting.

Answer 1

C) Both women were in their forties and very pleasant, and he thought that either of them would do an excellent job.

Answer 2

The answer should be C

The answer should be C because it gives some pretty obvious clues. Like where it says 'Both women were in their forties and very pleasant' it is very obvious that 'very pleasant' means that he likes both the women. 'And he thought either of them would do an excellent job' means he likes both of them so much it is hard to choose one.
