Question

Which of the following options is NOT true about the citizens:

Options

• They were eager to know why Caesar was murdered.

• They were eager to attack Brutus as soon as he goes up to the pulpit to speak.

• They were eager to listen from Brutus the reason why Caesar was assassinated.

• They wanted to listen to Brutus as he was honourable.

Answer 1

They were eager to attack Brutus as soon as he goes up to the pulpit to speak.

Explanation:

The citizens do not immediately attack Brutus when he comes to speak. They are anxious to hear his explanation and respect him as an honourable Roman. Their anger develops later, after Antony manipulates their emotions.
