Explanation:

When a word has more than one syllable, the stressed syllable determines which part of the word is more emphasized than any other of the syllables. We pronounce that syllable longer, louder, and with changed intonation.

We could also say that the stressed syllable represents a non-written accent of the word.

The stress will always fall on just one of the syllables that obligatory contains a vowel.

In general, We use the symbol /'/ to mark the stressed syllable. This symbol appears before the stressed syllable.

To recognize the stressed syllable it is necessary to divide word on syllables. After that, we should pay attention to a syllable that produces a longer vowel, that is, where do we raise the pitch to a higher level by raising our voice or create a more distinctive facial movement.

What evidence from the text support the idea that Macbeth has decided he will start taking immediate action instead of being so

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

D. And even now, /to crown my thoughts with acts, be it thought and done.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's Macbeth revolves around the life of Macbeth and his rise to power courtesy of the three witches' prophecy of his supremacy in the kingdom. And in this zeal to achieve his intended power of being king, he did numerable murderous deeds just to get to the top, which also led to his downfall.

As seen in the speech of Macbeth in Act IV scene i, he seems greatly disturbed at the prophecy of the three witches and demanded they tell him more. But then when he got the warning that Macduff is getting away, he decided to immediately pursue the man and kill him. He decided that instead of being indecisive, he will act instantly on any occasion so as to achieve his aim and mot give it a second thought. And this is perfectly supported in the line "and even now,/ to crown my thoughts with acts,/ be it thought and done".
