Question 1 • NC-English Language Arts 9 CR
Juliet’s tragic flaw is her tendency to act impulsively when she faces a crisis. To avoid marrying Paris, she accepts Friar Laurence’s dangerous plan and takes a potion that makes her appear dead, rather than seeking a safer solution. This extreme response supports choice B; her independence alone, as described in choice C, is not the flaw.
