I need some help with a few questions on a Romeo and Juliet assignment.
1. The purpose of the humor arising from the nurse’s comic character is to
a. furnish relief from the tragedy
b. display Shakespeare’s wit
c. suggest that love has its funny side
d. indicate that her servants are foolish
2. Mercutio can be described as a foil to Romeo because
a. he comes from a different social class
b. he is much older than Romeo
c. he is a Capulet and Romeo is a Montague
d. unlike Romeo, he does not take love seriously
3. Juliet quickly admits her love to Romeo because
a. she wants to marry him
b. she is sure his love is true
c. she is not a flirt
d. he overhears her musing about her love for him
Thanks!
1.a.
2.d.
3.a.
That’s what I believe, though 1. is tricky.
-Hope I helped.
