Need help with this question please

First, which do you think, please?

I am torn between a misunderstanding of another person or situation
or
two lovers prevented from being together.

I am leaning more towards "torn between a misunderstanding of another person or situation" since two lovers prevented from being together is really solely about Romeo and Juliet and not other tragedies? Not sure if I am on the right track though and I obviously could b

It's a poorly worded question. Tragedies don't have motives. People have motives. Tragedies have causes

The choices are also poor, in my opinion. A is the best of the four, but it is trite and misleading to say that tragedies are caused by misunderstandings.

If you are seriously interested in this topic, it would be a good idea first to decide on a good definition of 'a tragedy'

Thank you Clive
