The purpose of paraphrasing shakespeare’s text is to ? (a)change the setting to modern day.(b) make the language easier to understand. (c)correct possible mistakes in the original plays.(d) outline the relations among the characters.

Make the language easier to understand

A paraphrase of the text requires the writer to look carefully at the text. After reading the text closely a paraphrase needs the writer to restate the meaning in his or her own words. When one uses their own words, they have a better understanding of the text. The purpose of a paraphrase is to keep the original meaning of the text the same so nothing should change. This eliminates A and C as possibilities. D is also wrong because it's not focused solely on the characters.
