Answer:
- Creon: He is an archetypal villain because his announcement to bury Polyneices is the catalyst for the misfortune which composes the plot of the story. A stock character is an archetypal character whose purpose is to move the story along allowing the audience to quickly understand the character.
- A tragic flaw: It´s a literary device that can be defined as a trait in a character, usually the hero, that leads him to downfall. This characteristic could be the lack of self-knowledge or judgment and, as the story here analyzed, the pride.
- Ismene refuses to help her sister bury Polyneices: Ismene decides to go against the divine authority by not defending her family´s honor, but she obeys the human authorities because she´s more afraid of what they can do to her.

The correct answer is set number 1:
"VIOLA: 'Tis beauty truly blent, whose red and white
Nature’s own sweet and cunning hand laid on.
Lady, you are the cruel’st she alive
If you will lead these graces to the grave
And leave the world no copy."
Viola is telling Olivia how cruel she would be should she "lead these graces to the grave", i.e. die, "and leave the world no copy", i.e. not having had children to carry on her beauty. Thus, Viola is requesting for Olivia to get married and have offpsring, preferably with her lord and master.
