Answer:

Money is the only advantage in life.

Explanation:

The theme is a moral lesson or message that a narrative conveys about a topic, and that is not usually explicitly stated, thus, it has to be thought through. In this case, one of the topics that this excerpt deals with is "money", and one of the themes may be "Money is the only advantage in life," as Mrs. Higgins (the speaker), being outraged, points out how little opportunities or advantages have the woman only because of her condition of being poor.

Answer:

Manners are the key to success.

Explanation:

Pygmalion is the play written by George Bernard Shaw first staged in 1913.

Name of the play is derived form the ancient Greek mythology of "Pygmalion", in which Pygmalion fells in love with his own creation.

The given quote is found in Act 3 of the play. The statement was made by Mrs. Higgins while conversing with her son, Henry Higgins. Henry Higgins takes a flower girl named "Eliza" and teachers her the manners of high class society woman. In Act 3, Mrs Higgins appears at Henry's house and he tells her that how he is teaching her the manners and habits so that he can present his experiment to the society, that just with changing speaking habits, one can perfectly fit into higher class society. At this, Mrs Higgins rebuke Henry, because Eliza is a flower girl, after learning the manners and habits she won't be able to go back to her selling flowers. And she do not have any one to take care of her finances.

In the whole play we come across the theme of social class and manners, Shaw is trying to show through his play.

According to the statement provided we can say that it is manners that is a key to success. So, the correct option is C.

Charles Darwin's theories on evolution had a major impact on Victorian ideas about the world and humanity’s place in it. His the
Bad White [126]

Answer:

The Eloi lacked most of the qualities that members of the Victorian aristocratic class prided themselves on and considered superior, such as intelligence, strength, and creativity. The Time Traveller initially tries to explain away the apparent contradiction between the Eloi’s successe as the surviving species and their lack of intelligence using the theory of evolution. Being unaware of the true nature of the Morlocks, he theorizes that the Eloi have adapted to a life without danger or disease and have no need for any kind of work.

Wells explains how a human from his own time who is intelligent, strong, and had emotions would be a hindrance to the existing social order of the world of the Eloi. In this way he clarifies to the audience that evolution is just a response to the changing surroundings, which would not necessarily make a species better; evolution would only make a species better suited to its environment. He thereby strongly critiques social Darwinism, which based many of its principals on a flawed understanding of the theory of evolution. Instead, he suggest that the successful species is not necessarily the “best” species. In the same way, he suggest that the aristocratic class at the top of the social order is not necessarily better than the working class, intellectually or biologically.
