Jane Austen Mastery Test 2023(All are right except 1st
question)
Which lines in this excerpt from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice suggest that Mr.
Darcy is questioning his hasty judgment and has fallen in love with Elizabeth?
Occupied in observing Mr. Bingley's attentions to her sister, Elizabeth was far from
suspecting that she was herself becoming an object of some interest in the eyes of his
friend. Mr. Darcy had at first scarcely allowed her to be pretty; he had looked at her
without admiration at the ball; and when they next met, he looked at her only to criticise.
But no sooner had he made it clear to himself and his friends that she hardly had a
good feature in her face, than he began to find it was rendered uncommonly intelligent
by the beautiful expression of her dark eyes. To this discovery succeeded some others
equally mortifying. Though he had detected with a critical eye more than one failure of
perfect symmetry in her form, he was forced to acknowledge her figure to be light and
pleasing; and in spite of his asserting that her manners were not those of the
fashionable world, he was caught by their easy playfulness. Of this she was perfectly
unaware; to her he was only the man who made himself agreeable nowhere, and who
had not thought her handsome enough to dance with.
But no sooner had he made it clear to himself and his friends that she hardly had a

Which of these excerpts from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice highlights the
condescending attitude of upper-class characters?
1. Her report was highly favourable.Sir William had been delighted with him. He was
quite young, wonderfully handsome, extremely agreeable, and, to crown the whole, he
meant to be at the next assembly with a large party. Nothing could be more delightful!
To be fond of dancing was a certain step towards falling in love; and very lively hopes of
Mr. Bingley's heart were entertained.
2. Jane was as much gratified by this as her mother could be, though in a quieter way.
Elizabeth felt Jane's pleasure. Mary had heard herself mentioned to Miss Bingley as the
most accomplished girl in the neighbourhood; and Catherine and Lydia had been
fortunate enough never to be without partners, which was all that they had yet learnt to
care for at a ball. They returned, therefore, in good spirits to Longbourn, the village
where they lived, and of which they were the principal inhabitants. They found Mr.
Bennet still up.
3. They were rather handsome, had been educated in one of the first private seminaries
in town, had a fortune of twenty thousand pounds, were in the habit of spending more
than they ought, and of associating with people of rank, and were therefore in every
