- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The word "fair" is used differently in the two statements. In the first statement, "fair" means just or impartial, indicating that Egeus is being reasonable by allowing Demetrius to pursue Hermia. In the second statement, "fair" is used to describe Helena's physical appearance, meaning beautiful or attractive. Therefore, the use of the word "fair" is not the same in both statements.
