Read the excerpt from Act I, scene I of Romeo and Juliet . Romeo: Well, in that hit you miss: she’ll not be hit With Cupid’s arrow ; she hath Dian’s wit; And, in strong proof of chastity well arm’d, From love’s weak childish bow she lives unharm’d. She will not stay the siege of loving terms, Which is the best meaning of the phrase "she’ll not be hit with Cupid’s arrow”?
Answer
A
She loves Romeo but does not want to marry him.
B
She is too young to understand the meaning of love.
C
She does not want to fall in love with anyone.
D
She believes Romeo does not really love her.
Explanation
Cupid’s arrow represents falling in love, while Diana was associated with chastity and choosing not to marry. Romeo says the woman is protected from love’s “weak childish bow” and will not respond to his attempts to woo her. This means she does not want to fall in love with anyone.
