Answer:

C. In a marriage, only one person has complete control.

Explanation:

In the paragraph seven of the "A Bachelor's Complaint of the Behaviour of Married People", Charles call marriage a "monopoly, and not of the least invidious sort" because in a marriage, only one person has complete control according to him.

He says that the person with the upper hand in a marriage always try to keep his/her privilege exclusively adamant towards his/her partner. It is not a matter of one-sided/invidious sort of control but rather a natural way of how marriages work. The one with the exclusive privilege control the other person.

I was driving my car through the drive away for about 20 minutes now and I had 1 more hour to go to be able to go to my favorite KPOP concerts(as I should) and I started speeding up and going faster when i tried to touch the break with my foot, it wouldn’t stop. The road was empty so I was lucky. I started going faster when I saw trees up ahead my direction so I started panicking. i tried unbuckling my seat but it was stuck so I screamed, the car started going faster and started lifting up and up every second. the car ended up going up and flying in the sky. it started heading to one of the tall trees and I started screaming more. the car ended up going fast and furious in the tall tree in the middle so I was stuck. I was very high up so of course I was scared to get out or even move. I started moving a little bit but the car started wiggling too. I saw someone from afar and I started squinting my eyes, IS THAT????? TXT I said. they started playing crown, blue hour, and all my favorite songs. more groups came in like ateez, Victon, itzy, nct, ace, stray kids, bts, wayv, etc, and they started dancing and singing to me. Never have I thought I would have my concert in a TREE!

Based on the passage, it is mentioned that "he taught himself speech, and wind-swift thought" and also he is training himself for a life that would involve interacting with others. So the best choice would be "knowledge".
