Answer:

O Both Brutus and Antony ask rhetorical questions to  make points.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's "The Tragedy of Julius Caesar" is about the death of Caesar at the hands of Brutus, a close ally, and Cassius who conspired against the man. The play also deals with themes of greed, power, loyalty, appearance vs. evil, etc.

In the given monologues of both Brutus and Antony at the death of Caesar, their main point is expressed through the use of rhetorical questions. While Brutus explains his motive in giving a hand to the conspirators for the murder, Antony uses his speech to portray an image of Caesar counterclaiming Brutus's point.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
