Read the lines from act ii scene ii of romeo and juliet.
enter nurse and peter
mercutio: a sail, a sail
benvolio two two a shirt and a smock
nurse: peter
peter anon!
nurse: my fan, peter
mercutio good peter to hide her face for her fan's the
fairer face

which is true about the scene?

mercutio uses a pun to complain about his clothing
mercutio uses puns to make fun of nurses appearance
nurse uses puns to request her fan from peter
nurse uses puns to mock benvolio and mercutio

Mercutio uses puns to make fun of nurses appearance

Mercutio uses puns to make fun of Nurses appearance

The whole idea of this part is that Mercutio and Benvolio are making fun of Nurse's appearance. You can tell this in the like "Good Peter to hide her face for her fan's the fairer face."

Knowing this you can eliminate the option of Mercutio complaining about his clothing.

All Nurse says in this piece is "Peter," and "My fan, Peter." She is not using puns to request her fan, she is simply asking for it. She is also not mocking Benvolio and Mercutio.
