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.
The correct answer is C. The first example cannot be correct because the colon simply doesn't fit there - a comma would fit better. The second one is also incorrect as you don't need to put a colon after every word, just once before the first word. The last example also doesn't need a colon, you can just enumerate these various states without the use of colon. So naturally, we are left with only one option, and that is C.
