A. It shows that Cassius thinks that Brutus is too optimistic.
Explanation:
Shakespeare's use of triumph instead of victory in the excerpt in the passage affects its meaning because it shows that Cassius thinks Brutus is too optimistic, that is, Brutus expect they would win the war.
Cassius is trying to ask Brutus if he could face the humiliation of losing the battle and be led through the street of Time as trophy.
This means that there are two consequences of fighting a war, either to lose or to win.
Loosing means to be paraded as trophy and winning means to parade the losers as trophy.

Explanation:
The most grammatical and natural sentence is "Today, the Tomato and Stone Fruit Growing Society held their annual meeting in Queensland, Australia".
In the first option, writing "the Tomato Growing Stone fruits society" is incorrect.

Explanation:
<em>Samuel Johnson's </em>"A Dictionary of the English Language" was regarded as the best dictionary of its day. It was published in 1755, thus this makes the first choice (It was published in the late 1800s) incorrect.
I<u>t has around 42,773 words with their meanings</u>, thus this makes the second choice (It includes over forty thousand definitions) correct. The dictionary which "only" contained 40,000 words was prepared by <em>Nathan Bailey.</em>
The dictionary only shows the<u> meaning of the words and "not their origin."</u> Thus, this makes the third choice (It includes information about word origin) incorrect.
The meaning of the words are illustrated with the help of quotations (excerpts) relating to literature. So, this makes the last choice (It offers excerpted examples of the words in literature) correct. Examples of the quotations comes from Shakespeare, Dryden and Milton.
However, the dictionary doesn't have a preface written by William Shakespeare. Thus, this makes the fourth choice (It has a preface written by William Shakespeare) incorrect.
