Explanation:

The correct excerpt from Act 2 Scene I:

Brutus. It must be by his death: and for my part I know no personal cause to spurn at him but for the general. He would be crowned: how that might change his nature, there’s the question. It is the bright day that brings forth the adder,* and that craves wary walking. crown him that, and then i grant we put a sting in him that at his will he may do danger with.

*an adder is a snake

From the above excerpt, it is clear that Brutus doesn't have a personal reason for killing Caesar. But he feels that when Caesar gets the crown, it might change him and give him the power and licence to do damage.

Therefore, last option is the correct answer.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
