This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Read these lines spoken by Mercutio in Act III, Scene 1 after Tybalt stabs him and answer the question.
No, ‘tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church-door; but ‘tis enough, ‘twill serve: ask for me to-morrow, and you shall find me a grave man.
Of what are these lines an example?
A. allusion
B. pun
C. monologue
D. soliloquy
Answer:
These lines are an example of a:
B. pun
Explanation:
A pun is a joke that can use words that sound similar but have different meanings, or words that offer more than one possible meaning. When Mercutio says, "and you shall find me a grave man," he is making a pun out of the meanings of "grave". A grave man is a serious man, at least in most situations. In this case, he refers to grave as in "tomb", because he is about to die after being injured by Tybalt.
Paragraphs 4-5 contribute to the development of ideas in the text because they explain how the gene drive changes mosquitoes’ DNA, as stated in option B.
<h3>What are paragraphs 4-5 about?</h3>
After reading paragraphs 4-5 of the text "Gene editing wiped out a population of mosquitoes in lab tests," we can tell they contribute the development of ideas by explaining how the gene drive works.
According to the information in paragraphs 4-5, the gene drive is used to change mosquitoes' DNA so that the female mosquito will not bite or procreate. By doing so, scientists would help prevent the spread of malaria, since it is through biting that the female mosquito transmits the disease.
With the information above in mind, we can choose option B as the correct answer.
The missing paragraphs 4-5 are the following:
The researchers changed the mosquitoes’ genes with a gene drive. Gene drives use the molecular “scissors” known as CRISPR/Cas9 to copy and paste themselves into an organism’s DNA at precise locations. They’re designed to break the rules of inheritance. They can quickly spread a genetic tweak to all offspring.
The new gene drive breaks a mosquito gene called doubles∈x. Female mosquitoes that inherit two copies of the broken gene develop like males. They are unable to bite or lay eggs. Being unable to bite means they can’t spread the malaria parasite. Males and females that inherit only one copy of the disrupted gene develop normally and are fertile. Males don’t bite, whether they have the gene drive or not.

B, because the definition of literal is something that is supposed to mean what it sounds like it means.
