Answer 2

Answer: The right answer is the C) Capulet reiterates to Paris his opinion that Juliet acts in a childish manner.

Explanation: At the beginning of Act 1, Scene 2, Capulet replies to Paris's request in the following terms: "But saying o'er what I have said before. My child is yet a stranger in the world. She hath not seen the change of fourteen years. Let two more summers wither in their pride / Ere we may think her ripe to be a bride." So, even though he is indeed compeling Paris to wait two years to seek Juliet's consent to marry, he specifically discourages him from courting Juliet by reiterating (since he had already said this) that she is still a child, "a stranger in this world" (of adults), and, therefore, not mature enough to become a wife and a mother.
