Question 2 • Common Core ELA 9 B-IC
Romeo’s intense, all-consuming love contributes to his downfall, especially in the speed with which he falls in love with Juliet and reacts to their circumstances. He also acts impulsively, as when he kills Tybalt and later takes poison without checking whether Juliet is truly dead. His emotions often overwhelm him, so A, C, and D are the traits that apply; he is not mainly characterized by indecision or by calming others.
