Answer 2

Answer: It reveals Cassius's sense of optimism.

Step-by-step explanation:

This passage is from Shakespeare's play, Julius Caesar. In the play, Cassius, Brutus, and their followers kill Caesar to stop him from becoming even more powerful.

In Act V, Brutus and Cassius gather an army and prepare to fight against Mark Antony and his army. Antony and his men want to revenge Caesar's death.

Cassius begins to notice bad omens: ravens, crows and similar birds circling over the army. When he confesses this to his friend, Messala, he gives Cassius an advice not to believe in those signs. Cassius replies that he does not fully believe them, because he is optimistic and ready to face all dangers.
