Explanation:

First Question (Clarissa Dalloway's Status)

In "Mrs. Dalloway", Clarissa Dalloway is from the upper class. She can afford a nice house, has a servant, and arranges catering for her parties. The other options describe working - class or lower - class situations which do not match her character.

Solemnity means a state of being serious and dignified. A funeral is a serious event where people show respect for the deceased, so it calls for solemnity. A trip to an organic farm is a casual activity and does not require solemnity.

Answer:

She is a wealthy woman who can afford a nice house, a servant, and catering.
