One of the problems career people  have in the morning is dressing for the office when there will be an evening party immediately followed, with no time to return home to change. The easiest solution is to keep a full set of toiletries   and make-ups stored somewhere at the office. A woman going to an evening party should dress in one of her "basic dresses" in the morning--the kind that can change into a different look with an added scarf or jewelry. In fifteen minutes, when her office day has ended, she can metamorphose  herself into another person with freshly cleaned teeth, combed hair, a new face, a different and dressier  pair of shoes, and some sparkling jewelry. If she must wear a long dress for the party, she should bring it to the office in a protective bag and store it safely until she has to put it on. If a woman is going to a party, she should wear   _   in the morning. A) a nice dress B) a "basic dress" C) her uniform D) casual clothes

Some advice : (1) Always play in a safe place. A park is a safe place because there are no cars or trucks. But do not talk to anyone you do not know. Never go with a stranger into a motor car. (2) Before crossing the road, stop and look both ways. Look left, look right, look left again. (3) Keep away from houses or building that are being built or knocked down. Something might fall on your head, or you might cut yourself on broken grass. (4) Medicines or pills can be dangerous. Never swallow any pills or medicines you find in the cupboard. (5) Wear a life jacket whenever you go out in a boat. Even if you are not in the open sea and the water is not deep, you should have your life jacket on. It's easy to fall out of a boat.
