Read the excerpt from act ii of romeo and juliet. benvolio: romeo! my cousin romeo! romeo! mercutio: he is wise, and, on my life, hath stol'n him home to bed. benvolio: he ran this way, and leapt this orchard wall. call, good mercutio. mercutio: nay, i'll conjure too. which adaptation best maintains the original meaning and tone of the underlined part of the excerpt? he is probably pretty tired he snuck out of here he has gone off to sleep he went to take a rest

The correct answer is C. he has gone off to sleep.

Explanation:

This is the only answer that maintains both the meaning and the tone. Option B "he snuck out of here" is too informal, and options A and D do not maintain the meaning. They impli that Romeo was tired or that he went to take a rest, but what Mercutio is actually saying in the excerpt is that he bets Romeo went home to sleep. Thus, the correct answer is C. he has gone off to sleep.
