Answer:
False
Explanation:
Oedipus begs him to reveal who Laius’s murderer is, but Tiresias answers only that he knows the truth but wishes he did not. Puzzled at first, then angry, Oedipus insists that Tiresias tell Thebes what he knows. Provoked by the anger and insults of Oedipus, Tiresias begins to hint at his knowledge. Finally, when Oedipus furiously accuses Tiresias of the murder, Tiresias tells Oedipus that Oedipus himself is the curse. Oedipus dares Tiresias to say it again, and so Tiresias calls Oedipus the murderer. The king criticizes Tiresias’s powers wildly and insults his blindness, but Tiresias only responds that the insults will eventually be turned on Oedipus by all of Thebes. Driven into a fury by the accusation, Oedipus proceeds to concoct a story that Creon and Tiresias are conspiring to overthrow him.

You should take a picture of the question
Answer:
The significance of the phrase is:
C. ironically shows a rich man needing a wife, when women in those days needed one more significantly for financial stability.
Explanation:
This is the opening line in Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice"<u>. </u><u>The whole idea of a rich man needing a wife as a universal truth is ironic, and Austen's novel is proof of that. The whole plot is based on women searching for potential husbands as a means to secure their financial stability.</u> <u>Of course, that was never the purpose of the main character and her favorite sister, who would both much rather marry for love than for money.</u> Still, <u>they end up marrying extremely wealthy man who, in a sense, rescue them from being left in a dire situation once their father comes to die. </u><u>Their mother and sisters,</u><u> on the other hand, do not share their ideology, and</u><u> openly look for matches that are well settled in life to provide for them.</u>
