Answer:
The statement which best describes the literary form of "The Lady, or the Tiger" is:
D. It is a political allegory because it comments on leadership and government.
Explanation:
The short story "The Lady, or the Tiger?" by American author and humorist Frank Richard Stockton is an allegory, which means it uses symbols to convey a bigger message referring to the real world. T<u>hroughout the story, many symbols can be found and, among them, the king seems to serve as a reference to government and leadership.</u>
<u>The narrator describes the king as being semi-barbaric. That means he is selfish, impulsive, irrational. He is knowledgeable enough to come with something he considers to be a fair trial, but barbaric enough to condemn people on a matter of luck or fate. </u>
<u>Stockton seems to use this character of his to expose, in an allegorical manner, the unfairness and inequality perpetuated in society by our leaders.</u> Being in government does not necessarily mean a person is smarter, truer, or fairer. As a matter of fact, they may very well not have any of those qualities, but may have gotten there through connections and wealth. No wonder some leaders are often disqualified to serve their people, not worrying about or working for any improvements in education, health, employment, social issues, etc.
Kaya was both rude and confident. She insulted another persons instrument, but demonstrated that she could play her instrument well.
Britney was calm and confident. She didn't retaliate at Kaya's rudeness and simply took it. She also "showed-off" her talent by adding extra things to the music that Kaya was playing.

Benvolio will be right, and Romeo will forget all about Rosaline.
Romeo and Benvolio will be revealed as Montagues, and a fight will break out.
Juliet will make a decision about whether she wants to marry Paris.
The question asks about your personal opinion when it says, "What do you think". However, there are some choices that make the most sense based on what you know because of any prior knowledge you have of the story and the prologue. We know that Romeo will not be with Rosaline in the end, so it would be logical to think that she is no longer a love interest of his when he sees Juliet at the party. Also, the prologue mentions that there will be new mutiny in regards to the ancient grudge, so we can expect more fighting. Last, we know that Juliet has to make a decision about marrying Paris at the party because of the conversation she had with her mother. Of course, we know what that decision will be, but still.
