The title "Great Expectations" refers to:
I. Pip's desire for Estella's love
II. Pip's desire to become a great scholar of philosophy
III. Pip's expectations to achieve great fortune
IV. Pip's expectations to inherit Magwitch's property

  • A.I and III
  • B.I and II
  • C.II and III
  • D.III and IV

Answer: A

The key is I and III. The title Great Expectations refers to Pip's hopes: he expects to win Estella's love, and he expects a great fortune, which he believes comes from a secret benefactor. The idea that the fortune comes from Magwitch, option IV, is the truth he finds out later, and it is the source of his money, not what he expected. A desire to become a scholar of philosophy, II, is not part of the novel. So I and III is correct.
