Prince Escalus appears in Acts 1 and 3 to end the duels between the families and to hand out appropriate punishments to the people who have been fighting. He is also a mechanism for the audience to know or learn specific details of the brawls that may have been missed. In both Act 1 and 3, Benvolio recounts the fights to the Prince.
Escalus gives punishments that will significantly change the fate of the characters, and, if those punishments had not been given, would significantly change the direction of the play. His ruling that anyone caught fighting again in Act 1 would be killed, makes Romeo's banishment in Act 3 necessary, thus forcing his and Juliet's actions in Acts 4 and 5.
Answer:
Prospects for Trade between Nigeria and its Neighbours is a new study undertaken by the Laboratoire d'Analyse Régionale et d'Expertise Sociale (LARES) in Cotonou (Benin), commissioned by the Club du Sahel1. Presented as a series of concise, well documented "fact sheets", this study will be of interest to public policy experts and entrepreneurs who believe that regional trade development is a necessary response to globalisation.
The study outlines the still very weak and undiversified trade in the region, the consequences of the asymmetric relation between Nigeria and the other countries as well as the important position occupied by oil products in regional trade.
It examines the recent developments in Nigeria's economic policy marked by a reduction in protectionism and the liberalisation of foreign exchange markets and its presently modest impact on regional trade. The study also highlights the role of the very informal trading networks which control the major part of regional trade and the institutional, financial and material obstacles to their development. The importance of the informal sector is underlined by the parallel foreign exchange market which operates throughout the region. Its pervasiveness illustrates both the region's development potential and the need for fundamental public policy reforms.
The answer would be A, because of its use of commas, and pauses. Hope I helped.
