"Yes, all those points are true about Shakespeare, but most of them are true of other authors as well" (B) is the comment that best illustrates the technique of drawing comparisons during a discussion.
In this discussion, people were apparently talking about Shakespeare and his work or his life. The speaker who delivered this comment brought up other authors into the conversation, inviting the other speakers to consider a comparison between Shakespeare and these authors. By doing so, the speaker is also giving his opinion on the comparison: he thinks Shakespeare and the other authors are alike in some aspects.
The correct answer is that he uses half-lines like in old English poetry. He doesn't mimic the capitalization nor does he uses popular names as the names were really used in that form, he didn't invent a new name with which he would mimic old names. In addition, the syllables are not unstressed.
The correct answer is set number 1:
"VIOLA: 'Tis beauty truly blent, whose red and white
Nature’s own sweet and cunning hand laid on.
Lady, you are the cruel’st she alive
If you will lead these graces to the grave
And leave the world no copy."
Viola is telling Olivia how cruel she would be should she "lead these graces to the grave", i.e. die, "and leave the world no copy", i.e. not having had children to carry on her beauty. Thus, Viola is requesting for Olivia to get married and have offpsring, preferably with her lord and master.
