      B when the hostess smiled Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C as if she saw me before Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D No Error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Replace тАШshe saw me beforeтАЩ with тАШshe had seen me beforeтАЩ. Before is qualified by тАШPerfect TenseтАЩ. Here the sentence begins in Past Indefinite Tense, hence тАШbeforeтАЩ will take тАШPast Perfect TenseтАЩ with it. Moreover, in case of two activities of the past, the one occurred earlier takes тАШPast Perfect TenseтАЩ. Hence option C has the error.
