Answer and explanation:

Mrs. Mallard is a character in the short story "The Story of an Hour" by author Kate Chopin. Mrs. Mallard has a heart condition that makes her susceptible to dying in case of a great shock or surprise. Thus, when a friend of hers finds out that her husband has died, he asks Mrs. Mallard's sister to break the news in a gentle way.

Mrs. Mallard is obviously sad about her husband's death. She cries for some time and then goes to her room, locking herself in. However, she leaves the window wide open and stares out of it, realizing that the world is still the same, that nothing has stopped due to her husband's death. She also realizes that she is now a free woman. Even though she loves her husband very much, not having him around means she can do as she pleases without having to worry about justifying herself.

Unfortunately, the whole thing was just a mistake and her husband is still very much alive. When he comes home, Mrs. Mallard's heart can't take the disappointment, and she dies from the shock of no longer being free.

What was prophesied over the life of Banquo?Macbeth? Act 1 scene 3
MakcuM [25]
<span>Ross arrives and announces that Macbeth is to be the new Thane of Cawdor, thus confirming the first prophecy of the Witches. Banquo and Macbeth are struck dumb for the second time, but now Shakespeare contrasts their responses. Banquo is aware of the possibility that the prophecies may have been the work of supernatural dark forces, as exemplified in his lines "What? Can the Devil speak true?" (108) and "oftentimes, to win us to our harm, / The instruments of Darkness tell us truths . . . — (only) to betray us" (123-125). Macbeth is more ambiguous. His speech is full of what will now become his trademark — questioning, doubting, weighing up, and seeking to justify: "This supernatural soliciting / Cannot be ill; cannot be good" (130-131).</span>
