Answers

Answer:

(Act 1) Macbeth and Banquo run over the three witches in the heath near the battle zone. The witches uncover to Macbeth that he is to be the Thane of Cawdor, and in the end ruler. Macbeth doesn't confide in them. Regardless, by then the Thane of Ross appears and uncovers to Macbeth that he is indeed the Thane of Cawdor.  

(Act 2) opens with Banquo and his youngster, Fleance, progressing toward bed in Macbeth's château. Macbeth ascends out of the fogginess, and addresses Banquo. Close to the completion of this scene, Macbeth hears a ringing of a ringer, which is Lady Macbeth's sign that they should start their murder plans. ...  

(Act 3) The executioners butcher Banquo, who kicks the bucket asking his child to escape and to fight back for his passing. One of the executioners extinguishes the light, and in the murkiness Fleance move away. The executioners leave with Banquo's body to find Macbeth and notice to him what has happened.

That I did always love I bring thee Proof That till I loved I never lived—Enough— What is the effect of the use of the word "enough" in this quotation? It shows the speaker's insecurity about love.

Answers

Answer: It shows the speaker's insecurity about love. It emphasizes the speaker's desperation.

Explanation:

Answer:C) it reveals the speaker’s profound emotion towards her love.

Explanation:She emphasizes that she has always loved, but perhaps she did not have enough time to give all that love she had to give. However, she is so desperate to give her love, that even after death she still comes back to her love to continue showing her attachment and devotion. “I bring thee proof” This is that she brings the proof that she has always loved. She later mentions in the poem that love is life and love has immortality. This means that while we live, loving gives life and light to our hearts, and that after we die it remains in the hearts of the people who were with us.

WHAT TO THE SLAVE IS THE FOURTH OF JULY?
By Frederick Douglass
Extract from an Oration, at Rochester, July 5, 1852

Fellow-Citizens—Pardon me, and allow me to ask, why am I called upon to speak here to-day? What have I, or those I represent, to do with your national independence? Are the great principles of political freedom and of natural justice, embodied in that Declaration of Independence, extended to us? and am I, therefore, called upon to bring our humble offering to the national altar, and to confess the benefits, and express devout gratitude for the blessings, resulting from your independence to us?

But, such is not the state of the case. I say it with a sad sense of the disparity between us. I am not included within the pale of this glorious anniversary! Your high independence only reveals the immeasurable distance between us. The blessings in which you this day rejoice, are not enjoyed in common. The rich inheritance of justice, liberty, prosperity, and independence, bequeathed by your fathers, is shared by you, not by me. The sunlight that brought life and healing to you, has brought stripes and death to me. This Fourth of July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn. To drag a man in fetters into the grand illuminated temple of liberty, and call upon him to join you in joyous anthems, were inhuman mockery and sacrilegious irony. Do you mean, citizens, to mock me, by asking me to speak to-day? ...

Fellow-citizens, above your national, tumultuous joy, I hear the mournful wail of millions, whose chains, heavy and grievous yesterday, are to-day rendered more intolerable by the jubilant shouts that reach them. If I do forget, if I do not faithfully remember those bleeding children of sorrow this day, "may my right hand forget her cunning, and may my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth!" To forget them, to pass lightly over their wrongs, and to chime in with the popular theme, would be treason most scandalous and shocking, and would make me a reproach before God and the world. My subject, then, fellow-citizens, is AMERICAN SLAVERY. I shall see this day and its popular characteristics from the slave's point of view. Standing there, identified with the American bondman, making his wrongs mine, I do not hesitate to declare, with all my soul, that the character and conduct of this nation never looked blacker to me than on this Fourth of July. Whether we turn to the declarations of the past, or to the professions of the present, the conduct of the nation seems equally hideous and revolting.

Why does Douglass say he feels distanced from the people to whom he is speaking? (5 points)

They have families, and he does not.
They identify with free people, and he identifies with slaves.
They have personally insulted him that morning.
They did not want him to speak at all.

Answers

Answer:

They identify with free people, and he identifies with slaves.

Explanation:

In the excerpt shown above, we can see how Frederick Douglass says it is disrespectful to be invited to speak to an audience of white people about the freedom of the 4th of July, when his people (the black people) do not have access to freedom . Douglass reinforces the idea that he has no reason to celebrate, because those with whom he identifies are enslaved and are not celebrating, but suffering. So there is no freedom in America as long as blacks are in prison and Douglass as a black man does not identify with the audience that is listening to him.

What does this excerpt foreshadow? Benvolio and Mercutio will get sick from the heat. Benvolio and Mercutio will be jealous of the Capulets’ travels. Benvolio and Mercutio will stop working soon. Benvolio and Mercutio will fight the Capulets.

Write a 250-word essay in which you explain the theme of women's strength and bravery in "Women".​

Answers

Answer:

(This isn't mine, these were two somewhat essays I found and put together, changing a few words. Depending on your grade level and level of writing change around the words to make it as if you wrote it.)

Throughout Alice Walker's literary works she uses her characters and her stories to help show the strength of women as they overcome the abuses men and society place on them. Walker shows this theme through her diction, literary devices, and imagery. These women have suffered physical and verbal abuse from men and from society. They have been discriminated against for the color of their skin and also for being females in a male-dominated society. Walker uses this theme to comment on social injustices during that time. Not only are blacks considered to be the lowest in society, but women are even lower than black men. Walker comments on the mistreatment women deal with, they are used to sex and pleasure, raising children, keeping the house, farming the land, cooking meals, and are also punching bags for men. Women were expected to do what they were told and keep quiet. They were meant to be seen working but never heard. Women did not have a voice during this period in society, but Walker showed the reader what women really wanted to say during their lives. This story is a prime example of how women are oppressed by men in this society and far from discussing their strength and bravery it shows how they just become pedestals for the men in their lives and useful only to ride like kids riding a wooden rocking horse until the men are satisfied.
