Answer 1

Clara believes that Victorian rules and customs are strict, but she is willing to adopt them, as option C shows.

Who is Clara?

• She is a character in "Pygmalion."
• She is a rich, rebellious and snobbish girl.
• She is a girl tired of social decorum.

Clara belongs to Victorian high society and as such she must follow extremely strict and polite social values and rules. She doesn't like to live under these rules and would like to be free of them, but she is willing to follow social norms as she doesn't want to lose her standard of living.
