Here is the full passage for this question:
<span>There is likewise another diversion which is only shown before the emperor and the empress, and first minister, upon particular occasions. The emperor lays on the table three fine silken threads of six inches long; one is purple, the other yellow, and the third white. These threads are proposed as prizes for those persons whom the emperor has a mind to distinguish by a peculiar mark of his favor. . . . The emperor holds a stick in his hands, both ends parallel to the horizon, while the candidates advancing, one by one, sometimes leap over the stick, sometimes creep under it, backward and forward, several times, according as the stick is advanced or depressed.
</span>
I think the answer would be: <span>The emperor rewards his subjects for jumping over and under a stick.
The full passage basically tell the readers about the strange contest that both the emperor and the empress like to conduct. We can see from the third sentence that those who are able to finish emperor's contest will be rewarded with a thread of silk.</span>
Answer:
The correct answers are:
On wednesday night Juliet will drink the distilling liquor.
Juliet will feel A cold and drowsy humor and will fall asleep.
Thursday morning Paris will find her "dead" in her bed.
Then Juliet's family will take her to the Capulets family vault.
In the meantime, Friar Laurence will tell Romeo about her plans.
Finally, Romeo will see Juliet waking up and take her to Mantua.
Explanation:
This was Friar Laurence's perfect plan. He tells Juliet that she should go and marry Paris, that he would give her a liquor and that when she drank it she would fall asleep, but on the outside she would seem dead for 42 hours. Enough time for Paris to find her "dead" in her bed and the family can take her to the family vault. Once there, Juliet would wake up from her dream and her great love, Romeo, would be waiting for her to be able to escape to Mutua together.
The plan seemed perfect, except that Romeo received the news of Juliet's death before receiving the letter from Friar Laurence, which caused him to kill himself, and by the time Juliet woke up and saw him dead, she also decided to kill herself .
