Answer:

D: It captures both the original tone and meaning

This is the best analysis of the adaptation

Explanation:

The adaptation “Wow, she is really beautiful “, describes both the original tone and the meaning of the line Romeo says in the scene. He is describing Juliet’s beauty in the given line. He says that she is so beautiful that she teaches the torch how to burn bright. The torches appear dim before the glow of her face.

So, the correct answer is Option D. Other options mention that either of them is missing in the adaptation, so they are incorrect.
