Answer 1

Answer:

3. Describe the appearance of Eliza when she met Higgins for the first time.

Her shoddy black coat reaches nearly to her knees and is shaped to her waist. She wears a brown skirt with a coarse apron. Her boots are very old and worn out. She is no doubt as clean as she can afford to be, but compared to 'ladies' she is very dirty.

4. What did Pickering say he would do if Higgins succeeded?

Pickering is piqued by the prospect of helping Eliza, and bets Higgins that if Higgins is able to pass Eliza off as a duchess at the Ambassador's garden party, then he, Pickering, will cover the expenses of the experiment.

5. Who was Alfred Doolittle and what did he want?

Alfred Doolittle is Eliza's father, an elderly but vigorous dustman who has had at least six wives and who "seems equally free from fear and conscience."

6. What did Professor Higgins vow to do in a period of three months?

He makes a bet that in three months he can turn Eliza into a duchess or get her a job as a lady maid or shop assistant by teaching her how to speak 'better English'.
