Romeo and Julietby William ShakespeareEnter Capulet, with Juliet and others of his house, meeting the Guests and MaskersCapulet.Welcome, gentlemen! ladies that have their toesUnplagu'd with corns will have a bout with you.—Ah ha, my mistresses! which of you all 1 of 4Shame the Starsby Guadalupe García McCallBefore us was the most extravagant birthday party I had ever attended. Lupita’s parents weren’t rich, not by any means. It was obvious her parents had called in many favors from friends and family. The live music was not being provided by the usual conjunto group, but a long-tailed band. The músicos were Mexican, but they weren’t local, certainly no group I’d ever seen before.The decorations were beyond extravagant. The whole room was swathed in wide colorful ribbons. The swatches of cloth extended from the ceiling at the center of the room, billowing outward in every direction. At the edge of the ceiling, the giant ribbons were fastened with enormous bows and dropped downward, elegantly draping the walls until they dusted the floor. Every table had a different-colored skirt, and on every runner lay a huge elaborately decorated chest with bedazzled fans; long beaded necklaces; and assorted jewels the guests could crown and pin on each other, layering them on one after another until they looked like royals.1 of 2QuestionUse the passages to answer the question.Romeo and JulietWhich statement is true about both passages?(1 point)ResponsesBoth feature older characters reminiscing about youth.Both feature older characters reminiscing about youth.Both describe a wealthy family giving a party.Both describe a wealthy family giving a party.Both narrators marvel at the extravagance of the room.Both narrators marvel at the extravagance of the room.Both take place during a masquerade.Both take place during a masquerade.Remaining Attempts : 3

The statement that is true about both passages is: Both narrators marvel at the extravagance of the room.

In the excerpt from "Romeo and Juliet," Capulet welcomes guests to a gathering that hints at a festive atmosphere, while in "Shame the Stars," the narrator describes the excessive decorations and lavishness of Lupita's birthday party, expressing wonder at the elaborate setup. The other options do not accurately reflect the content of both passages.
