Explanation:
The romantic tragedy of William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" revolves around the tragic love story of a pair of lovers led to their deaths due to their family issues. Romeo and Juliet had to die in order for their family feud to be dissolved.
The character of Tybalt is the cousin of Juliet, a short tempered man and also proud of his fighting skills. Throughout the initial scenes in the play, there are various instances of foreshadowing for his death. Some of the lines are as follows-
-Capulet: [to Tybalt] You are a saucy boy – is 't so indeed? – / This trick may chance to scathe you.
-Tybalt: I will withdraw; but this intrusion shall / Now seeming sweet convert to bitter gall.
-Benvolio: Tybalt, the kinsman of old Capulet, / Hath sent a letter to his father’s house. . . . [Romeo] will answer the letter’s master, how he dares, being dared.
The first two lines are from Act I scene v where Tybalt saw Romeo attending the feast at the Caopulet's home. This scene shows him being reprimanded by his uncle Capulet, for trying to kick out Romeo from the party. Capulet's speech seem to be a warning about him getting 'scathed' for his 'saucy' temper while Tybalt himself promises to "convert [this intrusion] to bitter gall", suggesting he's not gonna let go of Romeo's actions.
The third line is from Act II scene iv where Benvolio had admitted to Mercutio about the letter that Tybalt had sent to Romeo's father's house. This challenge of Tybalt's will definitely be accepted by Romeo, which further suggests that it will not end well for Tybalt.
The sun, warm and sunny, were shining on the lake.
B.
A slim chance at success was my only hope for the future.
C.
Muddy shoes and a rain-soaked jacket was in a heap on the floor.
D.
Don't a combination of oil and vinegar make a good dressing on the salad?
I would also have to say B is the correct answer. Your verb is was and it agrees with chance, which in this case is your noun because at success would be a prepositional phrase. Small is an adjective that describes chance.
Hopefully this helps and good luck!! :)
to mock the reasons for quarrels and feuds
to illustrate the close friendship between the men
Read the excerpt from Act III, scene i of Romeo and Juliet.
Mercutio: Thou! why, thou wilt quarrel with a man that hath a hair more or a hair less in his beard than thou hast. Thou wilt quarrel with a man for cracking nuts, having no other reason but because thou hast hazel eyes. What eye, but such an eye, would spy out such a quarrel? Thy head is as full of quarrels as an egg is full of meat, and yet thy head hath been beaten as addle as an egg for quarrelling. Thou hast quarrelled with a man for coughing in the street, because he hath wakened thy dog that hath lain asleep in the sun. Didst thou not fall out with a tailor for wearing his new doublet before Easter? with another, for tying his new shoes with old riband? and yet thou wilt tutor me from quarrelling!
Benvolio: An I were so apt to quarrel as thou art, any man should buy the fee-simple of my life for an hour and a quarter.
Mercutio: The fee-simple! O simple!
Benvolio: By my head, here come the Capulets.
Shakespeare in the play Romeo and Juliet, includes this comic speech by Mercutio in order to illustrate the close friendship between the men.
Mercutio accuses his fellow Montague Benvolio of not picking up fights and being hypocrite suggesting pair to go inside to avoid the fight. Mercutio is neither totally Montagues nor Capulet. Due to his close friendship with Benvolio and Romeo, he is considered to be Montagues and he is the cousin of the prince. To not let Benvolio deter him, in this scene he picks up the fight with the Capulets. Through his tone of quarrel, it is clear that his attitude is none-too-serious, taking it as a joke. His fight in the above passage is clearly ridiculous and non-sensical. Through this, mirrors the fight between Capulets and Montagues is equally baseless and unnecessary. Here, they fight because they have fought and they are 'quarrelsome' like Benvolio.

Answer:
He
Explanation:
"He" is a subject pronoun, and "Him" is an object pronoun, in order to understand why one fits in the sentence and the other does not, it is important to differentiate between these two.
Subject pronouns are the pronouns that perform the action in a sentence or the pronouns that are being discussed and deal with within the sentence. In this case, "His partner and he" are the main focus on the sentence, and they are the ones who perform the main action which is to be best dancers. (It is important to note that "He and his partner" sounds much better than "His partner and he").
As for object pronouns, they are pronouns receiving the action in the sentence.
For a better understanding of these concepts, check the following sentence:
She gave him a book.
Who does the main action (to give a book)? "She", therefore, "she" is the subject pronoun.
Who does receive the main action, or who are given to the book? "Him", therefore, "him" is the object pronoun.
