Answer:

The answer is D): The Robert Burns poem, from which it is taken, deals with the disappointment that results when well-made plans fail.

Explanation :

John Steinbeck’s decision to name his novel “Of Mice and Men”, was inspired by a stanza from a poem written in the 18th century by Robert Burns, and titled “To A Mouse”. John Steinbeck’s title was actually relates to one of Burns’ statement (directed to a mouse) which states that it might be a waste of time for mice and men to have foresight and prepare for the future: their best plans don’t often work out; rather, plans could lead to pain and anguish—"the disappointment that results well-made plans often fail".

<h2>(HERE IS THE SUMMARY)</h2>

In Capulet’s house, Juliet longs for night to fall so that Romeo will come to her “untalked of and unseen” (3.2.7). Suddenly the Nurse rushes in with news of the fight between Romeo and Tybalt. But the Nurse is so distraught, she stumbles over the words, making it sound as if Romeo is dead. Juliet assumes Romeo has killed himself, and she resigns to die herself. The Nurse then begins to moan about Tybalt’s death, and Juliet briefly fears that both Romeo and Tybalt are dead. When the story is at last straight and Juliet understands that Romeo has killed Tybalt and been sentenced to exile, she curses nature that it should put “the spirit of a fiend” in Romeo’s “sweet flesh” (3.2.81–82). The Nurse echoes Juliet and curses Romeo’s name, but Juliet denounces her for criticizing her husband, and adds that she regrets faulting him herself. Juliet claims that Romeo’s banishment is worse than ten thousand slain Tybalts. She laments that she will die without a wedding night, a maiden-widow. The Nurse assures her, however, that she knows where Romeo is hiding, and will see to it that Romeo comes to her for their wedding night. Juliet gives the Nurse a ring to give to Romeo as a token of her love.
