Sc. 1, lines 1–28: how do the words and tone of their speech illustrate the differences between benvolio and mercutio?

Benvolio is a cheerful and out-going person.  He is also a good friend and is in the mood for a party.  Mercurio is a very eloquent, talented and full of imagination.  He also likes to tease Romeo to humor him.  Both men though look out for Romeo and want nothing but to see him happy.

everyone is bound to live life

life is full of thick and thins, one can have freedom and suffering in life

its always full of ups and downs. with those sufferings people now learn how to live life in a better way

i hope this helps
