Question
Juliet finally agrees to marry Paris because ahe is wealthy bhe is handsome cThe Friar advised her to pretend that she agrees dshe cannot resist her father
Solution
The correct answer is c) The Friar advised her to pretend that she agrees. In Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," Juliet is in love with Romeo, not Paris. However, Friar Laurence comes up with a plan for Juliet to avoid marrying Paris. He advises her to pretend to agree to the marriage, and then gives her a potion that will make her appear dead. The plan is for Romeo to then rescue her from her tomb, but the plan goes tragically wrong.
