The three correct options are:

B. Caesar asked Cassius to jump into the river with him.

C. Cassius leapt into the river and Caesar followed.

E. Caesar needed Cassius to save him from drowning.

Explanation:

Below is the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 1, scene 2.

[CASSIUS.] For once, upon a raw and gusty day,

The troubled Tiber chafing with her shores,

Said Caesar to me "Darest thou, Cassius, now

Leap in with me into this angry flood,

And swim to yonder point?" Upon the word,

Accoutred as I was, I plungèd in

And bade him follow. So indeed he did.

The torrent roared, and we did buffet it

With lusty sinews, throwing it aside,

And stemming it with hearts of controversy.

But ere we could arrive the point proposed,

Caesar cried 'Help me, Cassius, or I sink!'

Below are the options:

A. Cassius and Caesar were wearing bathing suits.

B. Caesar asked Cassius to jump into the river with him.

C. Cassius leapt into the river and Caesar followed.

D. Caesar and Cassius argued about the river.

E. Caesar needed Cassius to save him from drowning.
