Which lines in this excerpt from act IV of Shakespeare’s Romeo and juliet reflect the conflict of person versus the unknown?

Lisa [10]

Answer:(JULIET wakes)

JULIET: O comfortable friar! where is my lord?

I do remember well where I should be,

And there I am. Where is my Romeo?

FRIAR LAURENCE: I hear some noise. Lady, come from that nest

Of death, contagion, and unnatural sleep:

A greater power than we can contradict

Hath thwarted our intents. Come, come away.

Thy husband in thy bosom there lies dead;

And Paris too. Come, I'll dispose of thee

Among a sisterhood of holy nuns:

Stay not to question, for the watch is coming;

Come, go, good Juliet,

(Noise again)

I dare no longer stay.

JULIET: Go, get thee hence, for I will not away.

(Exit FRIAR LAURENCE)

What's here? a cup, closed in my true love's hand?

Poison, I see, hath been his timeless end:

O churl! drunk all, and left no friendly drop

To help me after? I will kiss thy lips;

Haply some poison yet doth hang on them,

To make die with a restorative.

(Kisses him)

Thy lips are warm.

Answer:

I didn't realize that the new standard for passing a high school credit is 50.

Explanation:

I think it makes sense that they raised it because otherwise you could fail the class and still get a credit. But on the other hand, I think it's important that you have enough credits.

Write an argumentative essay in which you state and defend a claim about whether Dr. Jekyll is responsible for the crimes commit

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

In the final chapter, Jekyll's letter highlights one of the main themes of the novel, the dual nature of man. It is this concept that caused him to pursue his disastrous experiments that led to his downfall. Hyde, the personification of Jekyll's purely evil characteristics, revels in the freedom of an anonymous existence. Although he successfully distills his evil side, Jekyll still remains a combination of good and evil. Thus, when transforming back and forth, his evil side grows stronger and more powerful after years of repression, and is able to take over completely. In this way, Jekyll's experiments are the opposite of what he hoped. Interestingly, as is repeatedly mentioned throughout the novel, Hyde is a small man often called dwarfish, while Jekyll is a man of large stature. Thus, the reader is left to assume that Jekyll's evil side is much weaker and less developed than his good side. However, appearances can be deceiving. In fact, Hyde's strength far out powers Jekyll's.

In his letter, Jekyll clearly states that he felt no guilt about Hyde's actions, as "Henry Jekyll stood at times aghast before the acts of Edward Hyde, but the situation was apart from ordinary laws, and insidiously relaxed the grasp of conscience. It was Hyde, after all, and Hyde alone, that was guilty." To the reader, this explanation seems ridiculous, because Hyde is in fact part of Jekyll, and a being that Jekyll created. Therefore, clearly Jekyll is responsible for the man's actions.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

1. He decides to bestow it to his daughters

2. Goneril says that she loves him like she loves life and even more, Regan says that she loves him more than she loves Goneril.

3. Cordelia says that she loves him just as much as a daughter should love her father and that she loves him because he is her father.

4. He argues because he knows that Cordelia loves him and that she is Lear`s favorite child.

Explanation:

King Lear written by Shakespeare is a tragedy in which a king who considers himself old enough to pass the throne and all of his lands to his daughters (Regan, Goneril, Cordelia) who are first asked how much they love him. As Cordelia`s answer is not satisfying, he no longer considers her as his daughter. Regan and Goneril begin treating him disrespectfully which drives him mad and finally leads to conciliation with Cordelia, but as this is a tragedy, there is no happy ending.
