Be able to define and give examples of - dramatic foil, oxymoron, direct metaphor, implied metaphor, extended metaphor, personification, soliloquy and monologue.

Be able to outline the plot (up to where we are in the play - the falling action).

From ACT III:

List and explain one allusion.

List two foreshadows from Act III.
Why does Juliet use a bunch of oxymorons to talk about Rome in Act III scene ii lines 73-85?
How does Romeo betray Juliet in Act III.
Why didn't the Prince sentence Romeo to death?
Why is their no world without Verona's walls?
What is worse than Tybalt's death?  What does Juliet mean when she says "Romeo is banished - to speak that word is father, mother, Tybalt, Romeo, Juliet all slain all dead. Romeo is banished - there is no end, no limit, measure bound, in that word's death."
