B Correct answer
Explanation

This part of the sentence is incorrect. Here, an incorrect word 'appraise' has been used, which is a homonym of the word 'apprise'. To appraise is to estimate the value of something, but apprise means 'to tell'. The correct sentence would be, "You will have to apprise your father of the fact that you smashed his new car".
