  2. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen Mr Collins is attracted to Elizabeth first of all. False! Mr Collins first thinks of marrying Jane, as she is the eldest daughter. Note that his feelings don’t really come into it: he sees it as his duty. © 2008 www.teachit.co.uk 11736 Slide 2 of 9

  3. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen Mr Collins wishes to marry Elizabeth because of her quick wit. True! He is attracted to Elizabeth’s liveliness but he also worries that it could be a problem when they are married. © 2008 www.teachit.co.uk 11736 Slide 3 of 9

  4. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen Mr Wickham is introduced to the Bennets by Mr Bingley. False! Mr Wickham is introduced to the Bennets by Mr Denny, because he is also going to become a soldier in the militia. © 2008 www.teachit.co.uk 11736 Slide 4 of 9

  6. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen Mr Darcy is thrilled to see Mr Wickham. False! Mr Darcy is not thrilled to see Mr Wickham. Elizabeth notices Mr Darcy’s cold treatment of Wickham, even in a very short meeting on the street. © 2008 www.teachit.co.uk 11736 Slide 6 of 9

  7. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen Jane tells Elizabeth about Mr Darcy’s terrible treatment of Mr Wickham. False! Mr Wickham tells Elizabeth about Darcy’s terrible treatment of him: he was not given a job (called a living) that he was entitled to, when Darcy’s father died. © 2008 www.teachit.co.uk 11736 Slide 7 of 9

  8. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen Elizabeth develops a liking for Mr Wickham. True! Elizabeth becomes more interested in Mr Wickham than any man she (and we) have encountered in the novel up to that point. © 2008 www.teachit.co.uk 11736 Slide 8 of 9

  9. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen Mr Collins is well-mannered and agreeable. False! Mr Collins is vain, pompous and a bore. A good example of this is when we hear him go on and on and on about Lady Catherine de Bourgh’s house. At this point, furnishings are his main topic of conversation. © 2008 www.teachit.co.uk 11736 Slide 9 of 9
