This question is about "Emma", by Jane Austen.

Answer:

C. Emma is eager to impose her ideas on someone whose social position limits her.

Step-by-step explanation:

Emma is a beautiful, wealthy, spoiled young woman who likes to promote weddings. She thinks she is a great matchmaker and loves to help women make very profitable and positive marriages. One day she meets Miss Harriet Smith, who is a girl of unknown lineage and inferior status than the people who made up society in that region. Emma knows that it will be very difficult for Harriet Smith to find a good marriage because of her disadvantaged social situation and decides that finding a good husband for her is a very motivating challenge. In this case, Emma is convinced and eager to impose her ideas on someone whose social position limits her.
