Ophelia's death could be understood - as Gertrude contents - as being an accident. According to this view, Ophelia's branch snapped and she drowned in the river below. According to this viewpoint, Ophelia's death is tragic because it was a meaningless accident; her life is lost not by her own design or in response to the events transpiring around her, but because of the whims of chance and accident. On the other hand, Ophelia's death can be understood as being a suicide: Ophelia died, then, due to being driven mad because of her unrequited love for Hamlet and society's unreasonable expectations for women and their behavior. This understanding of her death is tragic because it shows the extent to which Ophelia was wounded and oppressed.

Faust made a pact with the devil for a period of 24 years. He began a life of pleasures , but at some point, after many years, he was sorry for the decision he had made and for his condition, so he desired to cancel the pact, which the devil didn´t accept. He continued to live that way until the end of the term. When the 24 years had passed, knowing that Satan wanted to take his life, he talked with his friend and tried to encourage them to repent and live their lives in a way that honors God.

Yes, George's mercy killing of Lennie neatly parallels the events of Chapter Three, when Candy allowed Carlson to shoot his malodorous old dog. Steinbeck is even careful to involve the same Luger in each killing. Whereas the meek and passive Candy proved unable to do the job himself, George shows no such weakness. As has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt at this point, Lennie's lethal innocence is not compatible with the world. He cannot learn to change his ways - he cannot even understand why the "bad things" he has done are bad. The fate he would meet at Curley's (mutilated) hands - likely a drawn-out, vengeful lynching - is enough to convince George that his only real option is to make Lennie's death as quick and painless as possible.
