Question

Which statement best describes why the actions of the opening scene of

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is option D: The scene's street fight is started with an impulsive act, and the danger of such acts is an important theme in the play

Explanation:

If we first use what we already know about the play we can immediatly eliminate option c as the answer because the Montagues and the Capulets absolutely despise each other and definately don't have goodwill towards each other. Throughout the play there is a general theme going on, the street fight starting off the play shows this theme. There is danger of doing particular acts like the impulsive act of them streetfighting which is seen repeatedly thoughout the play, there is impulsive acts that are dangerous going on throughout the entire play for example Juliet and her potion, Romeo and his falling in love with someone from the family in which his despises. And of course the constant fighting.    We also can eliminate option B because the scene does not create tension. And finally we can eliminate A because his participation in the fight does not show that he is brave or loyal it is instead showing that he is impulsive and cowardly to be involved in something such as the fight. Therefore the answer is option D.
