In this excerpt from act I, scene II, of Macbeth, what can be inferred from Banquo’s response to the witches’ prophecy? BANQUO:

That, trusted home, Might yet enkindle you unto the crown, Besides the Thane of Cawdor. But 'tis strange: And oftentimes to win us to our harm, The instruments of darkness tell us truths; Win us with honest trifles, to betray's In deepest consequence.— Cousins, a word, I pray you.
1-Banquo is wise enough to understand that the witches represent evil.
2-Banquo believes the witches and is ready to do anything to make his children kings.
3-Banquo suspects that Macbeth plans to kill Duncan to seize the throne.
4-Banquo supports Macbeth’s plan of murdering Duncan to get the throne.

In the scene where Macbeth and Banquo were revealed with the prophecy that Macbeth shall be King and that Banquo's children will also be kings, Banquo's response to the witches' prophecy was doubtful and full of suspicion. It implied that they must not believe too much, for they might fall to their demise.

I believe the correct answer is <span>1-Banquo is wise enough to understand that the witches represent evil.
The witches have prophesied that his children would be rulers, and even though he would like that to happen, he understands that the witches are evil and should not be trusted. He also saw that Macbeth believes them completely which unfortunately led him to his demise.</span><span>

It was a sunny afternoon<u> </u><em><u>in late October</u></em><em> </em>(prep=adv). Muriel and I had decided to check properties for sale in the countryside. We had always enjoyed toying with the idea of<em> </em><em><u>finding</u></em><u> </u><u>(np)</u> the perfect place<u> </u><u><em>to live </em></u><em>(</em>inf=adj). So we got into the car <u><em>to start as soon as possible</em></u><u> </u>(inf=adv). <u><em>After driving</em></u> (part) for hours we reached the spot, a stretch of fields forgotten <u><em>in the middle of nowhere. </em></u>(prep=adj).

Answer:

act 1

The play is set in a one-room apartment at the top of an old Victorian house. When the curtain rises, we see Jimmy Porter and Cliff Lewis, seated on opposite sides of he stage and reading newspapers. There are others beside them and between them, forming “a jungle of newspapers and weeklies.” Jimmy is smoking a pipe. A tattered stuffed bear and squirrel sit on a chest of drawers at the end of a double bed, which takes up most of the back wall. The furniture is simple and somewhat shabby.
