Answer:

If you mean the excerpt from the Act II of “Romeo and Juliet”, by Shakespeare, said by Chorus, I believe that the correct answer is second statement: It reveals the conflicting feelings Romeo has for Juliet and his family.

 

Based on the excerpt from Act II of “Romeo and Juliet” by William Shakespeare, the main purpose of this prologue, said by chorus, is to present Romeo’s conflicted feelings for Juliet and her family and to recap past events that happened in the play ( Romeo forgot about his previous love, Rosaline, by seeing Juliet). The chorus also creates an ominous mood that hints at the conflicts of the play (“Tempering extremities with extreme sweet”).

lana66690 [7]
I believe its because it falls across multiple lines without obvious breaks. The line breaks are important because the first word of each line gets emphasis. So, I would say A, but one could argue C.

What did The Yellow Wallpaper symbolize in the story?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The wallpaper unmistakably stands in for the narrator's imprisoning structures of family, medicine, and tradition. Wallpaper is a lowly and domestic material, and Gilman deftly employs this nightmare-inducing paper as a representation of the household existence that ensnares so many women.

What is Yellow Wallpaper's main point?

The narrator of "The Yellow Wallpaper" feels that the wallpaper is a narrative she must decipher and that it represents something that directly affects her. As a result, the wallpaper's meaning grows throughout the narrative. It is torn, filthy, and initially appears to be a "unclean yellow," which makes it merely unpleasant. The supposedly formless pattern, which intrigues the narrator as she tries to understand how it is structured, is the worst part.
