Solution

The correct option is A wisely patient
Maman-Nainaine is wisely patient with Babette (E). Maman-Nainaine does not look down on Babette, so she is not "contemptuous" (A). Nothing she says to Babette is "flippant" (B). She does not give in to Babette's wishes, so she is not "reluctantly accepting" (C). There is neither joy nor optimism in the passage (D).
