If hyperbole is an exaggeration, the opposite is a type of understatement.

An exaggeration is defined as a statement that represents something better or worse than it really is. In contrast, an understatment is a statement that represents something being smaller, worse, or less important than it really is. The two are opposites.

[Chorus:] From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
raketka [301]

The answer is B: The children of two feuding families fall in love and are destined to die.

In these beautiful lines by Shakespeare, one can summarize the entirety of Romeo and Juliet. Two quarreling families give birth to two children, on one side, Romeo, on the other, Juliet. From the outset, as it was believed then, and even nowadays, people´s lives are ruled by the sign of the star that they are born under, so that, being star-crossed, Romeo and Juliet were destined not only to fall in love, but to die because of that.

I would say the theme is literary. The kid who doesn't study gets a bad grade while the one who did is the first one finished. But it isn't stated explicitly (as a direct or stated theme would be). I hope this helps.
