Question Analysis
Find the FALSE statement.
Let's look at the beginning of the call. Lacy says, Hello, this is Lacy. Can I speak to Helen, please? This means Lacy is the one who made the call.
Now, let me check option A. It says Lacy is the receiver. But we just saw that Lacy is the caller, which makes Helen the receiver. So, option A is actually false.
Let's verify the other options just to be sure. Lacy says, I have two tickets for the rock concert, would you like to join me? This confirms Lacy invites Helen to a concert. So option B is true.
