7

×2+4 = 18

18 ×2+6 = 42

42 ×2+10 = 94

94 ×2+16 = 204

Similarly,

4

The last sentence in the paragraph clearly gives support for the idea that the interest in Shakespeare is due to the development of his characters. Choice a is incorrect because the writer never makes this type of comparison.

Choice d is wrong because there is no support to show that most New Yorkers are interested in this work. There is no support for choice e either.
