Select the correct answer. Which description best matches the character Algernon in Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest? A. sophisticated with strong morals B. powerful, conservative, and arrogant C. self-absorbed, witty, and sincere D. respected and admired by others

There is no fitting answer; closest to matching the description is C

Explanation:

Algernon, known as Algy, is a witty breaking-the-rules character that presents the disobedient and rebelious side of Oscar Wilde himself.

Therefore, Algy is A sophisticated but is not a morally strong character, because he goes around pretending that he is somebody else.

B He might be slightly arrogant but he is not powerful and certainly not conservative.

C self-absorbed, witty, these character traits fits both Algy and Wilde, but Algy is not sincere. See A.

D When you are arrogant, and pretend to be somebody else, you are unlikely to be respected and admired by others.
