Explanation:

1. From the excerpt, when Cinna asks to win Brutus to their party, Cassius immediately gives Cinna a paper (an inciting/incriminating letter) to take to Brutus, matching the second option.
2. Cassius also tells Cinna to meet him at Pompey's Theatre, showing he trusts Cinna with this task and the plan, matching the third option.
3. Cassius does not reconsider including Brutus, seek new conspirators, or postpone the meeting, so the other options are incorrect.

Answer:

• Cinna's request makes Cassius ask him to take an incriminating letter to Brutus.
• Cinna's request makes Cassius trust him to return to Pompey's Theatre and meet Cassius there.
