Answer 2

The correct answer is this: HE IS CLEARLY NO MATCH FOR OLIVIA IN TERM OF TEMPERAMENT OR SOCIAL STATUS.
Malvolio is a steward to Olivia. Olivia considered him a puritan, because he hates any form of entertainment and because of this every one in the household usually make jest of him. So in term of temperament and social status, the two of them are not in the same class at all.
