Which of the following statements about the mirror image rule is false?

A) No rejection is implied if an offeree merely asks about the terms of the offer without indicating its rejection.
B) In recent years,the courts tend to apply the mirror image rule in a more liberal fashion.
C) The common law rule requires that acceptance be the mirror image of the offer.
D) No rejection is implied if an offeree accepts the offer's terms while complaining about them.

The traditional contract law rule is that an acceptance must be the mirror image of the offer.Attempts by offerees to change the terms of the offer or to add new terms to it are treated as counteroffers because they impliedly indicate an intent by the offeree to reject the offer instead of being bound by its terms.However,recent years have witnessed a judicial tendency to apply the mirror image rule in a more liberal fashion by holding that only material (important)variances between an offer and a purported acceptance result in an implied rejection of the offer.Even under the mirror image rule,no rejection is implied if an offeree merely asks about the terms of the offer without indicating its rejection (an inquiry regarding terms),or accepts the offer's terms while complaining about them (a grumbling acceptance).
