Do they use key words from the title or question?

Do they answer the question directly?

Can you work out the question or title just by reading the conclusion?

Describe and compare the different marriages in "Pride and Prejudice". Which one do you think Jane Austen presents as the best and why do you think this?

"Conclusion From all the relationships, I believe that Elizabeth and Darcy have the best. They married for love, not money, not beauty and not security, a marriage vow, To Love and To Hold That is why we marry; we shouldn't marry for money, beauty or security. Out of all these relationships Elizabeth and Darcy are the only two that married for the right reasons. Modern Times We have learnt nothing from history; people still marry for money and beauty. These marriages usually end in divorce and heartbreak. I believe it is a relevant novel for girls and boys to read so they understand some of the situations we see in Pride and Prejudice, it also shows what and how society has changed."

Discuss the significance of the title, 'Pride and Prejudice'.

"In conclusion, I note that Jane Austen has used the two main characters to explain the relevance of the title. Jane Austen, by the end of the novel, has achieved the perfect marriage state, Elizabeth and Darcy complement each other entirely now that each has overcome the strength of first impressions and their own pride and prejudice."

Discuss Jane Austen’s methods of portraying the character of Mr. Darcy in Pride And Prejudice. Is he a wholly unattractive character?

"In conclusion, I feel that Elizabeth and Darcy is an excellent match. They both misjudged each other, but came through all their problems and worked everything out. This is why I feel both are such a good match. Even though they have many differences, is it not true, that opposites attract?"
