Solution

The correct option is C Embarrassed and contrite
The narrator begins in an apologetic tone for the way of life of grown ups. If they do not know any answer, they show irritation and smack the child instead of admitting their inability to answer. Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the options do not express the apologetic, thereby, embarassed tone of the speaker, hence, incorrect.
