- These are the identified topics and ideas I have analyzed while reading the Pride and prejudice.
(1) Pride - reading the book I can say that pride is a constant presence in the characters'
attitudes and treatment of each other, coloring their judgments and leading them to make rash
mistakes. Pride blinds Elizabeth and Darcy to their true feelings about each other. Darcy's pride
about his social rank makes him look down on anyone not in his immediate circle. Elizabeth, on
the other hand, takes so much pride in her ability to judge others that she refuses to revise her
opinion even in the face of clearly contradictory evidence. This is why she despises the good-

3. hearted Darcy for so long, but initially admires the lying Wickham. Yet while Pride and
Prejudice implies that no one is ever completely free of pride, it makes it clear that with the
proper moral upbringing one may overcome it to lead a life of decency and kindness. In the end,
the two lovers are able to overcome their pride by helping each other see their respective blind
spots. Darcy sheds his snobbery, while Elizabeth learns not to place too much weight on her own
judgments.
(2) Prejudice - In my perception, Pride in Pride and Prejudice refers to the tendency of
the characters to judge one another based on preconceptions, rather than on who they really are
and what they actually do. As the book's title implies, prejudice goes hand in hand with pride,
often leading its heroine and hero into making wrong assumptions about motives and behavior.
The author has gentle way of mocking Elizabeth's and Darcy's biases gives the impression that
such mistakes could, and indeed do, happen to anyone; that faulting someone else for prejudice
is easy while recognizing it in yourself is hard. Prejudice in the book is presented as a stage in a
person's moral development, something that can be overcome through reason and compassion.
The author only condemns those people who refuse to set aside their prejudices, like the class-
obsessed Lady Catherine and the scheming social climber Caroline. Though Pride and Prejudice
is a social comedy, it offers a powerful illustration of the damaging effects to people and to
society that prejudice can inflict.
(3) Family - For me, the family is the predominant unit of social life in Pride and
Prejudice and forms the emotional center of the novel. Not only does it provide the Bennet
daughters with their education and manners, but the social ranking of the family determines how
successful they may reasonably expect to be in later life. The author skillfully reveals how
individual character is molded within the family by presenting Jane and Elizabeth as mature,
intelligent adults, and Lydia as a hapless fool. The friction between Elizabeth and her mother on
the one hand and the sympathy she shares with Mr. Bennet on the other illustrate the emotional
spectrum that colors the family's overall character. The influence of Elizabeth's aunt and uncle
shows how the family works in an extended sense, with the Gardiners acting as substitute parents,
providing much needed emotional support at key moments of stress.

4. (4) Marriage - As I read the book, Pride and Prejudice is a love story, but its author is
also concerned with pointing out the inequality that governs the relationships between men and
women and how it affects women's choices and options regarding marriage. Austen portrays a
world in which choices for individuals are very limited, based almost exclusively on a family's
social rank and connections. To be born a woman into such a world means having even less
choice about whom to marry or how to determine the shape of one's life. The way that society
controls and weakens women helps to explain in part Mrs. Bennet's hysteria about marrying off
her daughters, and why such marriages must always involve practical, financial considerations.
As members of the upper class, the Bennet sisters are not expected to work or make a career for
themselves. Yet as women they are not allowed to inherit anything. As a result, marriage is
basically their only option for attaining wealth and social standing. Yet The author is also critical
of women who marry solely for security, like Charlotte. The ideal for her is represented by
Elizabeth, who refuses to trade her independence for financial comfort and in the end marries for
love.
- These are the guessed meaning from the context I understand.
“Angry people are not always wise.” she continued.
- For me, the sentence has meaning behind. Anger is an emotion that often we feel when we're
mad or triggered by something while 'wise' is a trait or can be our nature, as the two words
merged on the sentence they repelled each other's intensity because it is fact that if you are angry
you cannot think wise cause your emotion is bursting.
To be fond of dancing was a certain step towards falling in love; and very lively hopes of Mr.
Bingley’s heart were entertained.
- In the sentence, the term dancing was used to interconnect from falling in love. It basically
states if a person there is fond of dancing they could have a headstart for making someone fall in
love.

5. - The following are grammatical word classes I recognized while reading the book.
 Verb: “I am not going to run away, papa,” said Kitty fretfully.
 Noun: Mr. Bennet made no answer, and each of them, deep in thought, continued silent till
they reached the house.

- I recognized lots of cohesive devices yet the following are what I listed.
 However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a
neighbourhood.
 It was, moreover, such a promising thing for her younger daughters, as Jane’s marrying so
greatly must throw them in the wayof other rich men.
 Mr. Bennet’s emotions were much more tranquil on the occasion, and such as he did
experience he pronounced to be of a most agreeable sort
 First of all, he asked Miss Lucas.
 “I certainly shall not. You know how I detest it, unless I am particularly acquainted with my

9. - Main Points
Class is the target of much of the novel's criticism of society in general. The author
makes it clear that people like Lady Catherine, who are overly invested in their social position,
are guilty of mistreating other people. Other characters, like the suck-up Mr. Collins and the
scheming Caroline, are depicted as thoroughly empty, their opinions and motivations completely
defined by the dictates of the class system. To contrast them, Austen offers more positive
examples in Bingley and the Gardiners. Bingley is someone from the upper class who wears his
position lightly and gallantly. The Gardiners represent the honest, generous, and industrious
middle class and are examples of how to be wealthy without being pretentious.
The author does seem to respect the class system in a few ways, especially when it
operates not as a dividing power in society, but as a force for virtue and decency. Darcy is the
primary example of The author's ideal high-class gentleman. Though originally he seems to be
an arrogant and selfish snob, as the novel progresses it becomes clear that he is capable of
change. Eventually, thanks to Elizabeth's influence and criticism, he combines his natural
generosity with the integrity that he considers a crucial attribute of all upper-class people. He
befriends the Gardiners and plays a key role in helping the ungrateful Lydia out of her crisis. The
marriage of Darcy and Elizabeth shows that class restrictions, while rigid, do not determine one's
character, and that love can overcome all obstacles, including class.
V. Integration of Writing in the reading material.
- Recognized cohesive devices.
 However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a
neighbourhood.
 It was, moreover, such a promising thing for her younger daughters, as Jane’s marrying so
greatly must throw them in the wayof other rich men.
 Mr. Bennet’s emotions were much more tranquil on the occasion, and such as he did
experience he pronounced to be of a most agreeable sort
 First of all, he asked Miss Lucas.

10.  “I certainly shall not. You know how I detest it, unless I am particularly acquainted with my
partner."
- The author has no misspellings and punctuation conventions are correct
- Style appropriate to the genre and audience.
The characteristics of the book that allow it to be classified as a romantic fiction are the
elements of love and marriage, which are recurring themes throughout the novel. The romantic
journeys that many of the characters embark on provide much of the plot and the opportunity to
explore the issues surrounding marriage, societal change, gender expectations and the idea of
prejudice within society.
It also shows a part of history, and opens a door for us to see what life for young women
in England was like in the early eighteenth century, giving a glimpse at society and life for both
the rich and poor families of the time. This means that the novel, in some ways, could also be
pigeon-holed as a historical fiction.
Although Pride and Prejudice is not usually classified as a comedic novel, it is a book
written with wit and humour, which is often shown through Mrs. Bennet's determination to have
all her five daughters married, her worry about Jane and Elizabeth becoming old maids, and Mr.
Bennet's teasing to which she is mostly oblivious to. Austen's sense of humour is also shown
through Lydia and Kitty's desperate flirting and sneaky tricks that they think will get them
married earlier, and their childish, immature views on life and love, and what is important.
Austen uses various literary devices to show the hypocrisy of prejudice, and uses irony to convey
her ideas about society at the time.
Through the eyes of Elizabeth, we see her perception of the world around her shift over
time, and can see how her ideas and views on life slowly progress, develop and change. This is
the basic idea of a bildungsroman (coming of age) novel, that the protagonist embarks on a
journey of internal change, to become more mature and open-minded.

11. VI. Personal experience or practice in English Language Classroom. SENTENCE
PATTERN.
I have been reading Pride and Prejudice for at least 4 hours. I learnded that even class of
family are different there is always a hope for love. I witnessed amazing sentence patterns in the
book where they helped me understood significant message of the story.
As I read, the novel provided me a meticulous way of understanding the main points.
Reading the book helped me sharpen my ability to discern the sentences and know them well.
Viewing the novel challenged my imagination and made my feelings more affectionate to
happenings of what I am reading. Writing is perhaps the most complex of the communication
skills and takes the most time to master. As with any other skill, the craft of putting words on
paper is improved through practice and a willingness to improve on past attempts. The more you
practice, the better you will get! Moving beyond the basics, many types of writing can be used,
depending on audience and purpose. The novel is worth reading, it enhance my skills and I know
this help me someday communicating with people.
All in all, the English 200 is really a wonderful subject. It leads you to the things that you
believed you know,but, you actually don’t. The subject has a vast amount of knowledge. The
subject made me more linguistically inclined and more meticulous when readind understanding
things.
