The option that best states the purpose of the excerpt from "Romeo and Juliet" is "It foreshadows the outcome of the play," as stated in option D.

<h3>What is foreshadowing?</h3>

We call foreshadowing the technique of revealing information at some point that connects to an event taking place later in the story. Imagine you are watching a movie and you notice a knife lying on the top of a table. That same knife is then later used to kill a thief that breaks into the house. Showing the knife beforehand is foreshadowing.

The excerpt from "Romeo and Juliet" we are analyzing here does precisely that: It foreshadows the outcome of the play. According to the excerpt, Juliet and Romeo will die because of the feud between their families.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option D as the correct answer.

The complete question is as follows:

Read this excerpt from the prologue of "Romeo and Juliet."

The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love,

And the continuance of their parents' rage,

Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,

Is now the two hours' traffick of our stage;

Which best states the purpose of this excerpt?

  • It introduces the disagreement of the parents.
  • It explains who the main characters are.

ad-work [718]

The type of poetry that allows poets to experiment with techniques of style in their poetry, like experiments on stanzas, and grammar, is free verse.

<h3>What is Free Verse?</h3>

This refers to the type of poem where the poet is allowed to use poetic license and write without recognizable rhythm or structure.

Hence, we can see that when poets are allowed to experiment and write without any definite structure and use different styles, this is known as free verse.
