The best paraphrase of Benvolio's lines is Once you see other beautiful girls at the party, you will see that Rosaline is not so special.  

We can see all the keywords in the lines:

At this same ancient feast of Capulet’s (fest is a synonym of party),

With all the admired beauties of Verona: Go thither; and, with unattainted eye Compare her face with some that I shall show, And I will make thee think thy swan a crow. (this part compares Rosaline with all the girls at the party and he assures him that he could surely find a so much more beautiful girls there)

The other options are not correct because:

If you go to the party you will see that Rosaline is, in fact, the most beautiful girl in Verona. (this sentence expresses the complete opposite of Benvolio's message)

Compare Rosaline with other girls from Verona and then decide whether she is worthy of your love. (It is not about deserving love or not, it is about Romeo realizing that she is not special at all)

There are many girls in Verona who are just as beautiful and desirable as Rosaline. (This sentence only talks about half of Benvolio's idea, reason why it is incomplete)

Which of the following identifies Andrew Solomon's main claim in the speech?
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

C. It is difficult to seek treatment for depression, as it is viewed as a glorified form  of sadness rather than a serious mental illness.

Explanation:

In his speech, Andrew Solomon narrated his ordeal with depression. This disease is one suffered by many who do not really recognize its difference with sadness. They see depression as a mood which is normal for all humans, and so they do not believe that it requires treatments. They believe that it is something that can be adapted to.

Andrew Solomon sees it differently. He compared sadness to an iron with little rust which can be overcome by just painting and polishing while he compared depression to an iron which has rusted by over a hundred years and has turned to "a pile of orange dust". So, depression is a serious medical condition that needs urgent attention.
