Question

Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 2, scene 1. Which summary of the passage is the best?

Answer 1

Answer:

The best summary of the passage is "Brutus decides that, for the good of the people, Caesar must be killed. If they crowned Caesar, they would be giving him power, with which he could do damage."

Explanation:

These lines from "Julius Caesar" by William Shakespeare show the worries of Brutus as well as the reason he uses to justify killing Julius Caesar, this is the best summary since a summary is supposed to present the general idea in a complete but brief, a summary should not include too many details that are not main points.

Answer 2

Answer:

  I believe that the correct answer is option D, the last one.

Explanation:

  The worry of Brutus toward the possible change of Caesar is shown in the excerpt "How that might change his nature, there´s the question".

  He compared Caesar with a snake by making a metaphor that in the brightest moment is when the evil comes out.
