Why do Romeo's parents not ask Romeo directly why he is sad?
poizon [28]

Answer:

Romeo's relationship with his parents is somewhat typical. Romeo's mother and father seem to care about his well-being, but Romeo is a teenage boy who keeps secrets; the family is caring but distant. Romeo's father knows Romeo is depressed. He has observed his son's behaviour and is aware that Romeo's condition is serious (he says that Romeo's state may prove "black and portentous" if it can't be remedied). He also has tried to find out what is wrong with Romeo both on his own and with the help of friends, to no avail. So Montague is caring but incapable of bridging the distance between himself and his son, even with assistance. Lady Montague appears even more disconnected than her husband. Again, she cares--she is pleased to hear that Romeo hasn't been fighting--but seems oblivious to the deeper  problems Romeo has. In this, she appears to be even more removed from her son than her husband, for her concern seems misplaced (at least initially), for Romeo is more of a lover than a fighter.

Neither parent functions as a confidant or a guide for Romeo. He shares neither the source of his sorrow nor the source of his joy with them. He does not consider going to them for advice, but instead shares his troubles with the friar and Benvolio, neither of whom give him particularly good counsel.

Which excerpt highlights the theme of the fleeting nature of life? ​
hoa [83]

The correct answer is:

But at my back I always hear

Time's winged chariot hurrying near;

And yonder all before us lie

Deserts of vast eternity.

(Andrew Marvell, “To His Coy Mistress”)

These lines highlight the fleeting nature of life. The author argues that he can hear the "winged chariot" of time, meaning he can feel time passing, and "hurrying near." He knows that before us, there lies a desert of eternity. This is likely to refer to death. He believes that death is fast approaching, and that after death, lies an eternity.

We are required to write a letter to your elder brother abroad telling him about your new house and the prestige the house has accorded to your family

Plot 5B, Mary Street

Lagos State,

Nigeria,

13th September,2021

Dear Maxwell,

How are you doing over there and how is studies? It's so good to write to you again after about 6 months.

Guess what? Dad just built a new house and I'm so happy about it. You should have seen a change from the address above, we moved into the new house last week.

Remember Dad's land that he inherited from Grandpa, yes the house was built on the land. The house is a 4 bedroom apartment having a big sitting room, dining area, kitchen and a store room. Dad and mum are to take the master bedroom while we both have each room to ourselves. The other room will be used by visitors.

The compound is so big and it has a swimming pool and a basketball court. The house is painted white which makes it unique among houses in the environment. It's so beautiful and lovely. The environment is also clean and quiet compared to our old house.

I will ensure I send pictures when next I'm writing to you. I look forward to seeing you soon. Take good care of yourself.

Love,

your dearest brother.
