Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. A slapstick comedy

Explanation:

Let's define each of the terms in the answers:

A. "Romantic comedy"

A rom-com is a type of comedy that includes romance in its plot. Nowhere in the description of the film does it mention love or romance, so eliminate A.

B. "Slapstick comedy"

A slapstick comedy is a type of comedy that over-exaggerates the physical activity of the characters. So, here, we see actors purposely falling down or running into things in "humorous ways", and those are examples of such over-exaggeration that characterises slapstick comedy. So B is the answer.

C. "Buddy comedy"

A buddy comedy is a type of comedy where two characters with totally different personalities are paired together to solve a crime or mystery. Here, nothing points to characters of opposing dispositions, so eliminate C.

D. "Physical comedy"

A physical comedy is when characters use their body parts for humour. It includes slapstick comedy. While here, the actors are using their bodies in physical actions, D isn't as specific as B. So eliminate D.

The answer is thus B.

Answer 2
B. Slapstick comedy

Group of answer choices The Elizabethan theater as we know it develops slowly. In 1562 the play Gorboduc, the first English play to include blank verse, is performed in front of the queen at the Inner Temple in London. This is written by two gentlemen, Thomas Sackville (the future earl of Dorset) and Thomas Norton, and leaves a lasting impression. Its tale of a kingdom torn between two heirs has great significance for the audience of the day. Other plays follow, drawing on classical themes as well as on ancient British and medieval history, written by (among others) John Heywood, John Pickering, and Lewis Wager. A sign of their success is the construction in 1567 of the first purpose-built theater, the Red Lion, built by John Brayne in Whitechapel.
