{#, Attributes[#]} & /@ {Plot, ListPlot}
{{Plot, {HoldAll, Protected, ReadProtected}}, {ListPlot, {Protected,
ReadProtected}}}
Plot has the attribute HoldAll. As always you need to use Evaluate to
override the HoldAll.
opts = {Frame -> True, GridLines -> {{1}, {1}}};
Plot[x, {x, 0, 1}, Evaluate[opts]]
