Answers
The correct answer is Option C. Antonio is in love with Shylock’s daughter, Jessica.
Let us analyse the other options:
A. Antonio lends money without interest, which damages Shylock's business-
This is indeed a reason why Shylock hates Antonio. Christianity prohibits the lending of money on interest. So, Antonio lends money without charging interest. That is why people prefer to go to him rather than going to Shylock who charges interest on loans.
B.Antonio has insulted Shylock in the past-
This is also a reason for Shylock’s hating Antonio. Antonio has, in the past, publicly insulted Shlock at the Rialto and called him names.
D.Antonio Hates Jews-
This is another reason that Shylock gives for hating Antonio. Antonio, like most Christians of his time, was not fond of Shylock.
Therefore the correct answer is Option C. Antonio is in love with Shylock’s daughter, Jessica. This is not a reason for Shylock hating Antonio. It is not Antonio who is in love with Jessica, but Lorenzo.
