Question

2. Nicole was hesitant to lend Liz her tea set. Though the tea set was not worth much money, it had been in
the family for a long time and was pretty much irreplaceable. But Liz was persistent and since they were dear
friends, Nicole relented and agreed to lend her the tea set. As Nicole had feared, Liz did not handle the tea set
with the same care as Nicole. Consequently Liz broke or damaged several of the pieces. When Nicole asked
for her tea set, Liz stalled, "Uh... I forgot it at my cousin's house. I'll get it later this week. I'm so sorry." Liz
figured that she could run to the store and replace the missing pieces. When she got around to doing so, Liz
was disappointed to find that no stores carried the antique tea set. So Liz purchased a brand new tea set,
much more expensive than the old set. She then threw out the rest of Nicole's old tea set to hide the evidence
of her irresponsibility. When Liz presented Nicole with the new tea set, Nicole was extremely disappointed.
Liz did not understand why, "Look, Nicole, my cousin lost your tea set. I mean, he's still looking for it but it's
probably gone, but this tea set is much nicer." When Nicole did not accept the new tea set, Liz shook her
head in disgust. Liz told herself, "Some people don't appreciate anything."
