We can answer to that question by working through the options. The excerpt shows eating ethics in Elizabethan times. Option B is not correct. We can observe some etiquettes although they are limited. There is nothing related to sharing. Therefore, option C is incorrect. Similarly, we can not learn anything related to satisfaction or happiness. Answer D is not correct. The correct answer is A in which it is clearly described in the excerpt.

Karelle Stoltenberg · Answer

The correct option is this: TABLEWARE WAS RARER IN ELIZABETHAN TIMES THAN IT IS TODAY.From the passage, it can be seen that, during Elizabethan times, people has to go to invited diners armed with their own spoons and knives. During dinner, cups were notÂ  placed on the table because they were scarce, instead many guests share one cup. All these show that tableware were scarce commodities during that time.
