a.

Elizabeth has overcome the timidity of Jane but does not degenerate into the uncontrolled physical
expressiveness of Lydia and Kitty. Eliza models herself as the opposite to Jane, priding on her
frankness and insightful opinions of others, while Jane adopts always a perfect social formality devoid
of deeper understanding.

b. In contrast to Elizabeth who always speaks her mind frankly without respect to social status,
Caroline adopts a very servile behavior with Darcy in her effort to please and endear herself to him.

c. Elizabeth lacks the shrewdness of perception that Charlotte have.

2.Yes. Mr. Bennet acts through the power of self-restraint, poise, patience and inaction. Elizabeth to
worry or dwell on circumstances that are beyond her control is an expression of her father’s poise in the
face of adverse circumstances.
3.She is entirely insensible to the shameful and dangerous behavior of her younger daughters and
actually encourages them. People from upper classes see her as a desperate mother. She is as boorish in
her own way as Mrs. Bennett, so Darcy has no call for pride in family.
4.The two novels embody each others themes. The narrative describes how the prejudices and first
impressions of the main characters change throughout the novel, focusing on those of Elizabeth
Bennett.
Elizabeth sees Darcy as proud it is not only what she believes to be pride in Darcy's character that
makes her judge him harshly, but also her prejudice against him because of the lies Wickham has told
her. Elizabeth sees Wickham as a gentleman, his good looks and his easy manner fool almost everyone,
and Elizabeth believes without question all that he tells her of Darcy.
Darcy admires Elizabeth’s capacity to analyze character, a power with which she skillfully conquers
both Bingley and Darcy in conversation. Mr. Darcy looks down on the family of Elizabeth.
5.It means that money isn't everything.
6.The socially disastrous romantic decision will Lydia make is to run away with Wickham. Lydia’s
elopement is a social shame to her sisters that will make it difficult for them to find a man to marry.
7.Mr. Darcy fell in love with Elizabeth because she is intelligent, frank, and outspoken.
8.Mr. Darcy arrives soon after with Bingley, who makes a successful proposal to Jane. Lady Catherine
unexpectedly visits and demands to know if the rumour that Darcy and Elizabeth are engaged is true.
Although Elizabeth tells her it is false, to Lady Catherine's annoyance she does not promise never to
accept if he should. Darcy is heartened when he hears of this and is encouraged to propose again. This
time Elizabeth accepts.
