Read this excerpt from the novel Pride and Prejudice. Which issues listed below (A through D) are addressed in this proposal? Ch

oose ALL those issues that are specified, implicitly or directly in this excerpt.
MR. COLLINS: Thus, much for my general intention in favour of matrimony; it remains to be told why my views were directed towards Longbourn instead of my own neighbourhood, where I can assure you there are many amiable young women. But the fact is, that being, as I am, to inherit this estate after the death of your honoured father (who, however, may live many years longer), I could not satisfy myself without resolving to choose a wife from among his daughters, that the loss to them might be as little as possible, when the melancholy event takes place—which, however, as I have already said, may not be for several years. This has been my motive, my fair cousin, and I flatter myself it will not sink me in your esteem. And now nothing remains for me but to assure you in the most animated language of the violence of my affection. To fortune I am perfectly indifferent and shall make no demand of that nature on your father, since I am well aware that it could not be complied with; and that one thousand pounds in the four per cents, which will not be yours till after your mother’s decease, is all that you may ever be entitled to. On that head, therefore, I shall be uniformly silent; and you may assure yourself that no ungenerous reproach shall ever pass my lips when we are married.”

A) Mr. Collins is not motivated by money.
B) Mr. Collins has noted that there are several available young girls in his own neighborhood.
C) Mr. Collins will bequeath Longbourn to the Bennet daughter who agrees to marry him.
D) The Longbourn matter is resolved by marriage to a Bennet daughter.

Which is the independent clause in this sentence?
luda_lava [24]
An independent clause is a set of words that can hold on its own as a sentence. It has a subject, verb and complete thought, as most would say. A dependent clause on the other hand cannot stand on its own. 

The answer to this is "She can't study in France.". 

Patricia does not know French is not the complete clause, Because Patricia does not know French is an dependent clause easily identified because it starts with BECAUSE and of course BECAUSE is not a clause, it is a subordinating conjunction.
