My words seemed to exasperate him. He seized a rope, caught me roughly, and tried to tie me. I resisted with all
my strength, but he was the stronger of the two, and after a hard struggle succeeded in binding my hands and
tearing my dress from my back. Then he picked up a rawhide, and began to ply it freely over my shoulders. With
steady hand and practised eye he would raise the instrument of torture, nerve himself for a blow, and with
fearful force the rawhide descended upon the quivering flesh. It cut the skin, raised great welts, and the warm
blood trickled down my back. Oh God! I can feel the torture now--the terrible,excruciating agony of those
moments. I did not scream; I was too proud to let my tormentor know what I was suffering. I closed my lips
firmly, that not even a groan might escape from them, and I stood like a statue while the keen lash cut deep into
my flesh. As soon as I was released, stunned with pain, bruised and bleeding, I went home and rushed into the
presence of the pastor and his wife, wildly exclaiming: "Master Robert, why did you let Mr. Bingham flog me?
What have I done that I should be so punished?"

Ответ:
1. mood and tone - C
Mood and tone are feelings created by the author. Despite the violence in the opening scene, the play starts off with a comedic, lighthearted, romantic mood. This quickly changes, however, to one of dark tragedy as loved ones are killed.
2. figurative language - A
Figurative language is the use of figures of speech to add description and depth. Figurative language can use everyday words to create meaning that is more than what is literally written. Puns and word play are frequently used by Shakespeare to create comedic dialogue between characters.
3. symbolism - D
A symbol is when a concrete object represents and idea. In option D, the poison is not just the tool of death Romeo chooses but it can also represent the feud between the families. This feud is really what caused Romeo and Juliet to feel that death was the only option for them to be together.
4. themes - B
A theme is the author's main idea or message. In Romeo and Juliet, a common theme is that love and hate are two sides of the same coin. Romeo and Juliet love each other even though they are supposed to hate each other. After Tybalt's death, Juliet feels as though she should hate Romeo for killing her cousin, but her only feeling for him is love.
