Solution
The correct option is A generous "Give her orders: that's what she wants."- this convinces the reader that Higgins's is presumptuous. His entire speech reeks of arrogance and self-importance and the beginning of the passage hints at his determined character. The one thing the passage does not hint at is Higgins's generous character. So, B is our answer.
