Answer:

Macbeth has endured over the centuries for the following reasons: (1) the emphasis on Western world literature in English-speaking education (2) the veneration of Shakespeare that has been traditional in studies of English literature (3) the undoubted genius with language that Shakespeare (or whoever, if you want to quibble) employed in his tragedies leading to many frequently quoted passages:

"Life is a tale told by an idiot/full of sound and fury/signifying nothing"; "Lead on, MacDuff!"; Lady Macbeth's lament that no ocean will wash the blood from her little hands (4) the supernatural elements that lend themselves to great stage effects such as the witches and their cauldron, the ghost of Banquo, Lady Macbeth's sleep-walking (5) the universality of the theme of a good man brought to destruction by his own weakness and the influence of a woman, as well as his hubris (overweening pride).

Answer:

For the first picture, it should be "it's" instead of its. For the second, Memorial is spelled wrong. For the third, I believe "driver's" should be changed to "drivers." For the fourth, I'm not sure, maybe instead of "Washingtonian" its "Washington. " For the fifth, the sentence isn't quite right. It should probably be something like, "The couple of 12 years set aside a night each week for a family night."

Explanation:

Just either grammatically wrong or somethis is spelled wrong.

Which statement best describes Swift's use of understatement in this excerpt? He states that "roasting pigs" is more difficult t
m_a_m_a [10]

The excerpt is the following:

<em>As to our City of Dublin, shambles may be appointed for this purpose, in the most convenient parts of it, and butchers we may be assured will not be wanting; although I rather recommend buying the children alive, and dressing them hot from the knife, as we do roasting pigs.</em>

Answer:

He states that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs."

Explanation:

An understatement is a figure of speech that consists of intentionally representing something less important or smaller than it really is. This is what Swift uses when he suggests that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs." The author employs this figure of speech to catch the readers' attention and to criticize Irish society and its attitude toward the condition of poor farmers and laborers who can not feed their children due to the high rent they have to pay to their landowners. In order to improve the poor's economic situation, they'd better sell their children off as food to feed the wealthy.
