Question 11 • GA-Literature and Composition I

Read the excerpt from Act I, scene i of Romeo and Juliet.Romeo: Well, in that hit you miss: she’ll not be hit With Cupid’s arrow; she hath Dian’s wit;And, in strong proof of chastity well arm’d,From love’s weak childish bow she lives unharm’d.

Answer
A
longing for the woman he is describing.
B
disdain for Benvolio’s intrusive questions.
C
wish that Benvolio could also experience love.
D
skepticism about the idea of being in love.

Explanation

Romeo says the woman is protected from Cupid’s arrows and lives unharmed by love, suggesting she will not return his feelings. His description of her as chaste and unattainable shows his longing for her. The passage does not show disdain for Benvolio or skepticism about love itself.
