There is almost always two obvious invalid options that can be easily eliminated leaving just two to seriously consider.

Gizella52:

Still not sure :(

Hero:

Which two options have you already eliminated?

Gizella52:

D and A? Is that right?

Hero:

To eliminate, yes

Gizella52:

Okay good.

Hero:

All you're left with to ponder now is just B and D. Here's what to do: Grab a piece of paper and write "Ascribed Social Standing" one one side and "Conspicuous Consumption" on the other side. Then research and make a list of the characteristics of each under the appropriate topic. Then compare the list with the given scenario. The one that closely resembles the given scenario is the likely answer.

Gizella52:

Okay got it. It may be C

Hero:

Correct

Thank you
