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. It turned out that she has slipped on some ice-cream which had been spilled on the floor. Two weeks later she wrote to the firm to claim compensation.

Since Mrs. Ward felt that she was【C5】______to compensation, she sued the firm in the Law Courts. Here the firm claimed that it did not follow, just because someone has slipped on the floor, that they must have been negligent carrying out their duties.

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. The final result was that Mrs. Ward received £137 as payment for damages.
A)reasonable B)obviously C)evidence D)case
E)innocent F)inconvenience G)derive H)maintained
