Romeo and Juliet - Act I, Scene 5 Review

As Scene 5 starts, the servants are getting ready for...

• Romeo and Juliet's wedding

• Another big fight between the Montagues and Capulets

• Capulet's big party

Romeo spots a beautiful lady and describes her using figurative language. He uses...

• Metaphor ("So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows / As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows")

• Simile ("It seems that she doth hang upon the cheek of night / As a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear")

• Metaphor ("Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!")

• Simile ("What lady doth enrich the hand of yonder knight?")

Who recognizes Romeo, and how?

• Lord Capulet sees his face because he takes his mask off.

• Tybalt recognizes his voice when he talks about Juliet.

• Lady Capulet recognizes his outfit.

• Juliet asks him if they've met before.

Who protects Romeo, and why?

• Juliet, because she loves him.

• Tybalt, because he wants to kill Romeo himself.

• Lord Capulet, because he doesn't want any fighting at his party.

• Mercutio, because they're best friends.

When Romeo speaks to Juliet, their lines together make a

• poem

• sonnet

• pun

• ballad

The way Romeo and Juliet talk to each other at first shows that

• sonnets were really trendy back then, but it doesn't mean anything.

• They're really vibing - they are connected on a deep level.

• They're both enormous nerds who are obsessed with poetry.

• Shakespeare likes sonnets and will take any excuse to put another one in this dumb play.

When Romeo asks Juliet if he can kiss her, she says "Saints do not move, though grand for prayer's sake." That means...

• she doesn't want him to because she's supposed to be with Paris.

• she would rather kiss him first.

• she wants him to kiss her, but she's not going to make the first move.

• she will kill him if he tries it.

How does Juliet react when she finds out Romeo is a Montague?

• She slaps him because he didn't tell her who he was.

• She's confused because she thought he was Paris.

• She's happy because she hates her family.

• She's upset because she already loves him and now she knows he's an enemy.
