Then Mr. Wickham runs away with her sister, destroying the entire families reputation. Now Elizabeth may never know how Mr. Darcy feels about her and what might have been.

5. Passage Picker It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife. Opening of Pride and Prejudice I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine.

6. They walked on, without knowing in what direction. There was too much to be thought, and felt, and said, for attention to any other objects.

9. Connections This story is about a bad first impression that turns out to be wrong. When I first met a new girl, I thought that she was really rude because she didn’t talk to me. It turned out that she was really shy. She became a good friend. In part of the story, Elizabeth has to take care of Jane who got really sick. It reminds me of a time that my brother had surgery and I had to help my mom take care of him. I cared about what happened to him just like Elizabeth cared about her sister.

10. Connections Mr. Wickham tells a lot of lies about Mr. Darcy to make Elizabeth not like him. It reminds me of a time that a girl in my class started a rumor about my friend so that she wouldn’t be liked by anyone. I knew it wasn’t true so I didn’t believe it. It hurt my friends feelings. The setting of the story takes place in England. I have visited England and enjoyed going to places that had ballrooms like the ones in this story.
