Which of the following does NOT describe Lady Catherine?

a. She is generous to those less fortunate
b. She is very rich
c. She is full of pride
d. She is used to getting her own way

A. She is generous to those less fortunate

Lady Catherine is haughty, pompous, domineering, and condescending. Her wealth and station allow her to be rude to people she considers beneath her, with little consequences, especially seen in her interrogation of Elizabeth Bennet while at Rosings Park. Because of her upbringing she expects people to follow her like sycophants, which is presumably why she enjoys the company of William Collins so much. Mr. Collins encourages these characteristics by deferring to her in every aspect. Elizabeth treats her with respect but is not intimidated. To Lady Catherine's shock, Elizabeth chooses not to answer one of her ruder questions. It's also important to note that her behavior is not necessarily exemplary of the aristocracy, and she was intentionally made to be uncouth and rude. Such question were an example of ill-breeding during the Georgian and Regency periods.

She also believes her advice to be most exceptional, and that anyone and everyone should be obliged, and grateful, to take it.
