The correct answer is:

The author's purpose for the allusion is to emphasize how seriously the relationship is doomed.

Romeo and Juliet was a tragic story. Two star-crossed lovers who could not be together, and have a sustaining relationship. Comparing Sasha and Karl to this really shows how these two face a similar proposition. Their relationship is doomed. They can't be together like Romeo and Juliet could not be together.

Moral managers:
Aneli [31]

Answer: c. are dedicated to high standards of ethical behavior, see themselves as stewards of ethical behavior, and believe it is important to pursue success in business within the letter and spirit of what is ethical and legal.

Explanation:

The moral manager has a dedication towards ethical behavior in both his/her personal and work life. This manger aims to achieve business goals by following the highest ethical standards. To this manager, the end does not justify the means, the process is as important as achieving the goal and it must be just as ethical.
