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.

Answer:

You don't have to be French to enjoy a decent red wine," Charles Jousselin de Gruse used to tell his foreign guests whenever he entertained them in Paris. "But you do have to be French to recognize one," he would add with a laugh.

After a lifetime in the French diplomatic corps, the Count de Gruse lived with his wife in an elegant townhouse on Quai Voltaire. He was a likeable man, cultivated of course, with a well-deserved reputation as a generous host and an amusing raconteur.

This evening's guests were all European and all equally convinced that immigration was at the root of Europe's problems. Charles de Gruse said nothing. He had always concealed his contempt for such ideas. And, in any case, he had never much cared for these particular guests.
