参考答案
正确答案：AC
解析：
"Untenable behavior" is inexcusable behavior. Yet, the 'she' condones such behavior. Much more inoffensive behavior ('peccadillo' means a minor sin) she will find offensive.
(A) and (C) both mean to express anger.
(D), (E), and (F) all mean to express merriment, which is the opposite of what the context indicates. (B) means only to express a minor reservation.
