Question 6

• Option A: In "Romeo and Juliet", Juliet’s push for marriage makes their love stable (not just secret) and legitimate (via marriage).
• Option B: The Nurse supports but doesn’t pressure Juliet into marriage.
• Option C: Juliet’s focus is on love, not escaping family immediately.
• Option D: Juliet trusts Romeo’s emotions; she’s eager for their relationship to progress.

• Option A: Romeo overhearing Juliet is emotional (he hears her feelings).
• Option B: Juliet questioning Romeo’s name is part of emotional exploration of their relationship.
• Option C: Romeo praising Juliet’s beauty is an emotional expression.
• Option D: Juliet proposing marriage conditions moves from emotion (expressing love) to action (planning marriage), driving the plot forward.

• Nighttime setting: Creates mystery/tension (secretive meeting).
• Romeo’s secrecy at the start: Makes Juliet (and audience) curious, building tension.
• The Nurse interrupting: Adds urgency/pressure, increasing tension.
• Juliet’s repeated exits and returns: Builds anticipation (will they resolve things?); heightens tension.

All these elements contribute to dramatic tension.

Answer:

A. She seeks stability and legitimacy for their love
