Answer 1

The correct answer is "He swears and has poor manners".

Step-by-step explanation:

In the play "Pygmalion" by George Bernard Shaw, Mrs. Higgins is proud of her son's achievements, however she disapproves his manners, his language, and his social behavior. Therefore, she does not want him to be around visitors because his son swears and has poor manners.
