Petruchio changed the way Kate acted by

• letting her act like a shrew.
• treating her with tenderness.
• treating her like she treated others.
• poking fun at her.

First, everyone sat down to eat.  Then, the women went to the parlor while the men gathered in another room.  Next,

• the men sent for their wives.
• the women sent for their husbands.
• Petruchio placed a bet with the other men.
• Katherine gave a speech to the other women.

The man who won the bet would receive

• one hundred crowns.
• twenty crowns.
• one million dollars.
• a crown.

Baptista, pleased with the change in Kate, increased the amount of Petruchio's winnings by

• twenty thousand dollars.
• twenty thousand crowns.
• thirty cents.
• seventy cents.

Bianca told her husband that he was foolish

• for having all his friends over.
• for losing his sense of duty.
• for being so headstrong.
• to have made a bet that required (needed) her obedience to win.

Katherine now showed great respect for her husband.  This pleased

• her sister.
• the widow.
• the women.
• the men.

Bianca and the window

• objected to Kate telling them of a woman's duty to her husband.
• objected to Kate's headstrong manner.
• were shocked to see Kate so angry.
• were shocked at Kate's lack of honor.
