One lunchtime, May Ward was doing her shopping in a local supermarket, when she suddenly slipped and fell. She was badly shaken and bruised but【C1】______ nothing serious resulted.

But the judge took a different view. He said that the accident would not have happened at all if the firm had taken【C7】______ care. It was up to the firm, he said, to provide【C8】______ , that the accident did not【C9】______ from any negligence on their part. They would【C10】______ be in a better position than the customer to establish how long the ice-cream had been spilt and explain the circumstances to the Courts.
