The answer is indeed letter C) Miss Prism. No married man is ever attractive except to his wife.
"The Importance of Being Earnest" is a play written by Oscar Wilde. It revolves around characters who make up imaginary friends or even pretend to be other people in order to deceive those around them. The characters lie when they feel like escaping society, freeing themselves from the boring company of their friends.
"The Importance of Being Earnest" is the most famous comedy of manners of all time. A comedy of manners satirizes society, criticizing social standards and manners. There is usually a love affair or some other sort of scandal in the plot. The dialogs are full of witty remarks and sarcasm.
As for the options, letter C is the one that best supports the affirmation that this play is a comedy of manners. It's a remark made by the character Miss Prism, who has a love interest in Reverend Chasuble. She tries to convince him that he should marry, that a single man is a constant temptation to women. By marrying, according to her, he would be doing what is best for the Church. She goes on to say that older women would be a better choice (she is an older woman). Wilde probably used her character to criticize the desperation of older women of that era when it came to marriage.

Answer:
I believe the detail that best supports the inference is:
D. When he first hears the moor's silence broken, he was exultant.
Explanation:
The inference states that Holmes was expecting something to appear on the moor. If he was expecting it, he would probably be happy, excited to hear a noise, since it would be proof that he was right, that something was indeed going to show up. That's why the detail "When he first hears the moor's silence broken, he was exultant" is the best to support such inference. It mentions Holmes's reaction - a reaction that confirms his expectation. Had he not expected anything to appear, he would not have been exultant, but would have been scared or surprised instead.
