This paragraph is an example of a Toulmin argument.
The Toulmin method has six elements: claim, grounds, warrant, backing, qualifier, and rebuttal. The elements are used in this paragraph are;
<u>Claim</u>: a statement that the author wants the audience to accept as true.
<em>"I believe the cost of drilling is too high."</em>
<u>Grounds</u>: information that the claim is based off of.
<em>"I agree with environmentalists who fear that drilling will disturb the migration of more than 130,000 caribou."</em>
<u>Backing</u>: additional support for the claim by addressing different points related to your claim.
"In addition, experts say that the oil in the area adds up to less than a six-month supply."
<u>Rebuttal</u>: addresses the opposing view to reinforce the original argument.
<em>"Is such a small amount of oil worth the risk drilling poses to the animals?"</em>

Foil is probably the wrong word. She really is like a mother to Juliet and Juliet (who does not really have a friend with whom she can discuss her private life), needs the nurturing that the Nurse provides. I would pick C.
Juliet is the main concern of the Nurse, who truly wishes for Juliet's happiness.
I'd pick C but it is not the perfect answer.
A violent storm rages around a small ship at sea. The master of the ship calls for his boatswain to rouse the mariners to action and prevent the ship from being run aground by the tempest. Chaos ensues. Some mariners enter, followed by a group of nobles comprised of Alonso, King of Naples, Sebastian, his brother, Antonio, Gonzalo, and others. We do not learn these men’s names in this scene, nor do we learn (as we finally do in Act II, scene i) that they have just come from Tunis, in Africa, where Alonso’s daughter, Claribel, has been married to the prince. As the Boatswain and his crew take in the topsail and the topmast, Alonso and his party are merely underfoot, and the Boatswain tells them to get below-decks. Gonzalo reminds the Boatswain that one of the passengers is of some importance, but the Boatswain is unmoved. He will do what he has to in order to save the ship, regardless of who is aboard.
