Read the last line of the prologue of Romeo and Juliet. What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend. Which best restates
Vilka [71]

The play we are about to read will fill in the details of this story.

The line is basically saying: What is missed here, our play should fix. Of the response choices, Option A, What is lacking in this description is lacking in our play, is not a correct statement, so this answer is simply wrong. The rest are all correct statements, but only one is the best restatement. B is a correct statement but it adds the idea that there are "juicy details". The line does not hint at whether or not the information is juicy. Option D is also correct, however, the line doesn't say that the prologue is an introduction and it can't include the whole story. Option C is the best choice because it accurately restates the line without adding extra information.
