"Not a sensible man, and the deficiency of nature had been but little assisted by education or society". Who is being described here by Jane Austen?

  • A.Mr. Darcy
  • B.Mr. Bennet
  • C.Mr. Wickham
  • D.Mr. Collins

Answer: D

The description 'Not a sensible man, and the deficiency of nature had been but little assisted by education or society' is Austen's portrait of Mr. Collins in Pride and Prejudice, the pompous clergyman who is Mr. Bennet's cousin and heir. Mr. Darcy is proud but intelligent, Mr. Bennet is sarcastic and clever, and Mr. Wickham is charming, so none of them is described as insensible.
