    Explanation
    Puck is the fairy who assists Oberon in putting potions into the young couples' eyes. This is evident from the popular Shakespearean play "A Midsummer Night's Dream," where Puck, also known as Robin Goodfellow, is depicted as Oberon's mischievous and loyal servant. Puck's role in the play involves carrying out Oberon's commands, including the task of putting love potions into the eyes of the young couples to create chaos and confusion.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given statement is false because Egeus is not marrying Hippolyta. In Shakespeare's play "A Midsummer Night's Dream," Egeus is the father of Hermia and wants her to marry Demetrius, not Hippolyta. Hippolyta is actually engaged to Theseus, the Duke of Athens.

    A. Lysander and Hermia

    Explanation
    The given answer is correct because it lists all the couples mentioned in the question who are human. Lysander and Hermia, Demetrius and Helena, and Theseus and Hippolyta are all human couples. Oberon and Titania are not mentioned as human in the question, so they are not included in the correct answer.

    Who wants Hermia to be with them? (check all that apply)

    • Lysander

    • Demetrius

    • Egeus

    • Oberon

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Lysander
    A. Demetrius
    Explanation
    Lysander and Demetrius both want Hermia to be with them. This is evident from the context of the question, where it is mentioned that the question is asking about who wants Hermia to be with them. Lysander and Demetrius are both interested in Hermia and compete for her affection throughout the play "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by William Shakespeare. Egeus is Hermia's father and he wants her to marry Demetrius, not be with him. Oberon is the king of the fairies and does not have any romantic interest in Hermia.
