Answer 2

The correct answer is option B.because Romeo's superficial attraction to Rosaline is contrasted with Romeo's deep love for Juliet

Step-by-step explanation:

The love that Romeo feels for Rosaline is a superficial and sickly love.

Rosaline does not give back that love and Romeo only suffers and refuses to meet other women, always blinded by the love he feels towards her.

While meeting Juliet, Romeo realizes that with her, he does recognize true love, and that despite the problems that exist between the two families, the love of Romeo and Juliet is pure and fully reciprocated.
