Answer: <em><u>Brainliesss plssssss</u></em>

- O heavy lightness! serious vanity!

- Mis-shapen chaos of well-seeming forms!

- Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health!

- Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms!

Explanation:

The lines demonstrate Romeo's inner conflicts and contradictions toward his beliefs or opinions about love and how he is feeling at the moment.

Option 1: Should, without eyes, see pathways to his will.

This line states Romeo's belief that love is "blind", however, regardless of this "ability", it still sees pathways to his will, meaning that it is able to decide and determine a lover's path as it pleases.

Option 3: O heavy lightness! serious vanity!

Option 5: Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health!

These lines outline the duality of love: good and bad, and sometimes both features are all intertwined to the point it could make no sense. Rome is in emotional conflict, for him love is heavy and light, bright and dark, hot and cold, sick and healthy.

Option 4: Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms!

The contradiction again: The chaos has no shape, nor order, but apparently, at the time, it has "well-seeming" forms, the chaos has some kind of order in it.

The leaders of the US, USSR, and Great Britain said they wanted to cooperate, so why were negotiations at the Yalta and Potsdam

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: Each country had its own agenda about the post-war world.

Context/explanation:

Churchill in particular, along with Roosevelt, pushed strongly for Stalin to allow free elections to take place in the nations of Europe after the war. At that time Stalin agreed, but there was a strong feeling by the other leaders that he might renege on that promise. The Soviets never did allow those free elections to occur. Later, Winston Churchill wrote, "Our hopeful assumptions were soon to be falsified." Stalin and the Soviets felt they needed the Eastern European nations as satellites to protect their own interests. So one key point of disagreement between Stalin and the other two was over the direction things would take in Eastern Europe after the war.

While Winston Churchill and Franklin Delano Roosevelt were on the same page in many ways, there were also key differences between them. As noted by The Churchill Project of Hillsdale College, "FDR, ever the optimist, believed (or wanted to believe) that Stalin could be convinced that the West was not committed to destruction of the Soviet regime." Churchill had a much more skeptical view of Stalin and the Soviet Union and approached the relationship in a firmer fashion. Roosevelt had hoped to continue cooperation with the USSR. That changed under Truman, who took over the US Presidency after FDR's death. Truman was strongly anti-communist in his stance.

Another difference between Roosevelt and Churchill pertained to colonialism and imperialism. Again as noted by The Churchill Project: "Over colonialism. Roosevelt firmly believed European colonialism had been a major cause of World War I, and that it had continued to be a source of international disputes and tensions before World War II. Churchill had sworn defend the realm, which, when he took office, included the British Empire." As it happened, after World War II, colonialism's days were numbered and independence movements broke out around the world where imperial powers had dominated.

How did the Boxer Rebellion ultimately benefit the United States?

Tresset [83]

The Boxer Rebellion was an anti-foreign and anti-christian movement in China. This was the result of western missionaries arriving in China in the 1860's to convert the locals to christianism, in a country of a predominant taosim and confucionism population. This strong anti-foreign movement was created by a group called "The Boxers" and they seeked rebellion against western powers.

The Boxer Rebellion positively affected USA-Asian relations because of the U.S. suppression of the rebellion which resulted in the end of dynasties and the initiation of the Open Door policy in China, which stopped any country from imperializing China. This event helped to take a country that had been long resentful of foreigners and open it up, overall strengthening the relationship between them and the U.S.
