Answer 2

I'm not sure, but I think there should be an options to choose. But I've read it and I can give you correct answers:

1. Early in the novel, Elizabeth bases her ideas about Darcy and Wickham on her intelligence. She was sure that she's really intelligent and knows what's going on.

2. In my view, he answer is: Mr. Collins believes he should get married because Lady Catherine tells him to marry for social reasons. He's that type of the person who has no will and he will do anything for her.

3. My answer is: While Elizabeth hopes for love and respect in her marriage, Charlotte is most interested in security. She is always interested in material benefits for herself.

4. This one is: Elizabeth is unwilling to marry Mr. Collins because she has no respect for Mr.Collins. I can understand her, he behaves like flunky and nobody loves people like that.

5. In my view, that lines given above are example of metaphor. It's the most suitable option from given above as she compares his writing to something.
