Answer:

having a damaged reputation

Explanation:

discredited means to lose your respectability.

Using context clues, why would the witness have left the courtroom in humiliation? It can't be because they have good judgment or that they were honorable. That leaves "sorrowful" and "having a damaged reputation." Having a damaged reputation is more tied to humiliation, but if you didn't pick up on that, credited means of respect and the opposite most closely means having a damaged rep.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The above question wants to assess your writing ability and persuasiveness. In that case, I can't write the speech for you, but I'll show you how to write one.

First, you must know that a loyalist was a person who supported the British government during the American Revolution. In this case, one loyalist was against the independence of the colonies and thought that Americans should continue to be subjects of the English crown.

To write your speeche, you must imagine yourself as a loyalist and look for reasons that would make someone support England during the American Revolution. Also, you should search for information that confirms that these reasons were valid.

You can find this in an articles that talks about the loyalists and the American Revolution.

After that, you can write your speech in the following structure:

  • Introduction: Introduce yourself as a loyalist and present the political moment you are living.

  • Body: Write the reasons that lead you to defend British rule, and show evidence that confirms that these reasons are valid. You can write as many paragraphs as necessary, but write at least two paragraphs. Also, be convincing and show logical, emotional, and ethical reasons that are persuasive and make your listeners believe and share the same thoughts as you.

  • Conclusion: Show your final thoughts and reinforce your opinion on defending the rule of England in America.

“Without the witches’ predictions, do you think Macbeth and Lady Macbeth would have been satisfied with their place in life? Exp
Molodets [167]
BTW MY SIS WROTE THIS
Probably not. Ambition, at the time of the play, was not taken in good light, obviously because it ruined the Great Chain of Being. Those in the chain were meant to stay in their place. What Macbeth and Lady Macbeth did were gravely wrong as they tried to get ahead and take the place of Duncan, which explains the constant unusual weather throughout the play.

Macbeth, only after constant badgering, antagonizing, and plotting from Lady Macbeth, could perform the murder. If you remember, when going to kill Duncan, what appeared in the hands of Macbeth was an imaginary dagger. What I have concluded about this scene (and I've certainly struggled over it) is that the dagger could be portrayed as a manifestation of his guilt. As he grapples in a soliloquy heading over to Duncan's room, the bloody dagger represents his wrongful ambition.

<span>The manifestation of his guilt is also represented after he kills Banquo. He says an extremely striking line to one of the murderers right after. </span>

<span>MACBETH
(aside to FIRST MURDERER) There’s blood upon thy face.

FIRST MURDERER
'Tis Banquo’s then.

MACBETH
'Tis better thee without than he within.
</span>
<span>What Macbeth is saying is that the blood of Banquo is better on the murderer's face then within Banquo's veins. We see a sudden twist in Macbeth's intentions and personality showing his character development and change throughout the play. But alas, his initial guilt comes to light when he suddenly is the only one who can see Banquo's ghost at the dinner table. Yes, another manifestation of his guilt. </span>

<span>We see that no matter how many murders he commits, he will always be human and feel guilty for his actions. The turning point in all this, is actually Lady Macbeth, not even the witches. Without the constant persuasion of Lady Macbeth to push Macbeth to the character he became, he wouldn't have committed any murders. </span>

<span>Another point to make is that when Banquo and Macbeth first received the prophecy from the witches, one can say that Banquo was more ambitious than Macbeth. He says to himself, </span>

<span>MACBETH
(aside) If chance will have me king, why, chance may crown me
Without my stir.
</span>
<span>If fate puts kingship in my lap, only then I will take it. </span>

<span>If Lady Macbeth was your stereotypical wife, not a crazy psychopath, Macbeth probably would not have killed Duncan, and subsequently Banquo. Therefore I would blame Lady Macbeth, not particularly the three witches.</span>
