Message: from Polson High School Michael L. Umphrey website Test over Pride and Prejudice    film studies By Michael L Umphrey Test over Pride and Prejudice These should be typed in class by the end of the period. Type your name, and “Pride and Prejudice”, and today’s date in the upper left hand corner. You may use your notes. Answer 3 of the following questions. Be sure to put the question number at the beginning of your paragraph. Each answer should be one paragraph (6 or more sentences). Each paragraph should begin with a topic sentence, and it should be unified (everything in the sentence should relate to the topic sentence). Good, clear writing is as important as the “right” answer. If you do not capitalize the first word of each sentence, your paper will not be graded. If you do not capitalize the pronoun “I” your paper will not be graded. If you do not spell check your paper, it will not be graded. 1. Describe how Elizabeth’s view of Mr. Darcy changes from the beginning of the movie to the end. Begin with a topic sentence that summarizes this change. 2. Describe the character of Mrs. Bennet. Begin with a statement about what sort of person she is, then develop the paragraph by telling about three or more incidents that support your view. 3. Explain why you think Jane Austin included the character of George Wickham in the story. Begin with a topic sentence that states his main function in the movie, then give two or more incidents that show what you mean. 4. Elizabeth is quick to judge people. State your opinion about how good a judge she is, then give three or more examples from the movie to support your opinion. Things you may want to think about: her first impression of Darcy and of Wickham, her judgments of Mr. Collins and Lady Catherine, her attitude toward Charlotte’s decision to marry Mr. Collins. 5. What is one thing you think is better about the “storyworld” created by this movie than today’s actual world? Start with a clear statementa topic sentence֖then compare two or three details from the movie with details from today’s world. Or, if you prefer, tell about one thing that is better about today’s world than the “storyworld” created by the movie. test-pride_and_prejudice.pdf
