What is William Shakespeare's favorite sport?
There is no way from the texts of the plays or the sonnets to obtain personal information about Shakespeare, conspiracy theories to the contrary. It is a 20th Century conceit, based on modern psychology, to expect authors to inject personal information into their art.
Why did Shakespeare write Julius Caesar?
One of the themes of Julius Caesar is the method of selection of a leader. At the time when the play was written, Elizabeth I, the English Queen, was too old to bear children and did not have an heir. Shakespeare's selection of themes reflected the interests and concerns of his times. Of course the real reason Shakespeare wrote the play was that he wanted to make money. He had been writing plays about the problems of transition of power for seven or eight years already by the time he got around to Caesar. He wrote two more after Queen Elizabeth was dead and King James was firmly installed as her successor. (Which sort of squashes the interests and concerns of the time theory.) What is interesting is that Julius Caesar does not have anything to do with the succession. It has to do with the effectiveness of the use of violence to return a society to an earlier time. One would therefore expect it to be written at the time of the Gunpowder Plot. But it wasn't; it was written five years earlier.
What does Shakespeare's prolouge of Romeo and Juliet inform the audience about?

Which of these best compares the time frame of brookes poem and shakespeare play?
You can't just plunk down a question from your exam without even thinking about it first and expect us to answer it when it starts with "which of these" and you don't list the alternatives. Read the question. Think about it. Do you know when Arthur Brooke's poem was written? (1562) Do you know when William Shakespeare's play was written? (1595) If you know these things and have a brain you should be able to figure it out.

Why does Caesar call out ET brute as Brutus stabs him?
"Et tu, Brute?" means, "You too, Brutus?" Brutus was a favourite of Caesar, "Caesar's angel", who was even named as a contingent beneficiary in his will. Caesar has seen all of the other conspirators stab him, but last comes Brutus, who he did not expect to betray his trust and love. As Antony says, "This was the most unkindest cut of all."

Did Shakespeare expect his plays to be studied or even published?
As he died in 1616 and the first folio of his work wasn't collected and published until 1623, it seems safe to say that he didn't expect his work to be published, let alone studied.
