To determine the correct answer to each question, one would need to refer to the play "The Importance of Being Earnest" by Oscar Wilde. In the case of the first question, we need to identify which information is not revealed during Jack's interview with Lady Bracknell. To find the answer, one should carefully read Act II of the play, paying special attention to the dialogue and interactions between Jack and Lady Bracknell. The correct answer would be "Lady Bracknell's past" since it is not mentioned or explored during this particular encounter.
For the second question about Miss Prism and Dr. Chasuble's relationship, one should also refer to Act II of the play. It is necessary to analyze their interactions, role, and purpose in the plot. By disregarding certain characteristics, we can narrow down the answer. We can eliminate options such as "A subplot" and "A foil for the courtship of Cecily and Jack" as it is evident that Miss Prism and Dr. Chasuble contribute to these aspects of the story. This leaves us with the remaining options to consider: "A serious criticism of education and religion" and "A source of humor." By analyzing the context and dialogue, one can determine that Miss Prism and Dr. Chasuble do not serve as a serious criticism of education and religion in the play. Therefore, the correct answer is "A serious criticism of education and religion."
