Question

Choose the best answer from the options given below:
Krishna walks in a shoe store. He wants to buy a pair of shoes for himself. His size is seven. Raman, the sales boy is not sure. What should be his reply?

• A. I'm not sure. I can't find them on the rack. But let me check in the storeroom.
• B. Let me see if number six fits you.
• C. Number seven is not much in demand. Try number eight.
• D. Both B and C

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

I'm not sure. I can't find them on the rack. But let me check in the storeroom.

Option B: This does not seem like a suitable reply. As it's given in the question, the person's (Krishna's) size is seven. So, offering shoes with size six isn't a suitable thing to do. Hence B is incorrect.
Option C: This reply, too, isn't appropriate. Offering a customer (Krishna) a size bigger isn't a desirable thing to do.
Hence option C is incorrect.
Since both B and C are incorrect, option D is also not the right answer.
Option A: This is the most fitting reply, as the sales man offers a proper solution, that he'd go and check in the storeroom if Krishna's size is available.
Hence, A is correct.
