Question

read the paragraph on william shakespeare.
many students study william shakespeares plays today, though shakespeare lived nearly 400 years ago. in his day, shakespeares plays were performed in london at small playhouses and at large, open - air amphitheaters such as the globe theater. audiences in the late 1500s eagerly attended the performances of the bards comedies, tragedies, and histories (kline 110).
this writing requires a works cited page because
○ shakespeare lived so long ago.
○ researched facts are included.
○ the subject is controversial.
○ terms need to be defined.

Explanation:

A works - cited page is needed when researched facts (like details about Shakespeare's play performances, audience attendance, etc.) are included as these facts come from research sources (here, Kline 110 is a citation - like reference). Shakespeare's time of living, a controversial subject, or needing to define terms don't directly relate to the need for a works - cited page. So the correct option is the one about researched facts being included.

Answer:

B. researched facts are included.
