Without having the excerpt, I can only help you find the answer. As you read the passage, what would you say is the main idea? In other words, what is the entire excerpt about? Once you have an idea, read through the answer choices. Which closely matches what you considered to be the main idea? Also, which makes more sense for the time period? Keep in mind that in Shakespeare’s time, women were completely different than they are today.
