"Mi abuela está en el hospital."

"Qué lástima! ____"

a. No vale la pena.
b. ¿Qué te duele?
c. No lo sabía.
d. ¿Qué tienes?

D? My teacher says A, but it doesn't make sense to me.

I agree with you, and I like c. No lo sabía = I wasn't knowing it.

Sra

It has to be C because the others are:

a. It is not worth it
b. what is hurting you
c. what's wrong...

Thank you! I am going to pursue this!

To determine the correct answer, let's first understand the context of the conversation. The first speaker says, "Mi abuela está en el hospital," which means "My grandmother is in the hospital." The second speaker responds, "Qué lástima!" which means "What a pity!"

The correct answer choice should convey sympathy or empathy towards the situation.

Option A, "No vale la pena," means "It's not worth it," which does not express sympathy.

Option B, "¿Qué te duele?" means "What hurts you?" which is unrelated to the context of the conversation.

Option C, "No lo sabía," means "I didn't know that," which is a neutral response and does not convey sympathy.

Option D, "¿Qué tienes?" means "What do you have?" which is unrelated to the context of the conversation.

Based on the context, the correct answer is D, "¿Qué tienes?" This response shows concern and asks about what is wrong or what the person is experiencing, which is an appropriate and empathetic response to hearing that someone's grandmother is in the hospital.

If your teacher says that A is the correct answer, there might be additional context or a specific reason provided. It's always important to consider the context and any related information before selecting the answer.
