What dramatic effect does Shakespeare create by pairing the emotions of love and hate in the first act of the play?
aliina [53]

Answer:

Love, hate and honour

Explanation:

There are many components of Shakespeare’s classic, ‘Romeo and Juliet’, which mainly consist of love, hate and honour. This is the story of the incessant love of two young people, which crosses the borders of family and convention. It encompasses love, hate and tons of emotion, tragically ending with the harsh reality of death.

There are many imperative events leading up to various other events that take place in this specific scene. Possibly the most important and the utmost obvious fact that the audience discern about is about the two families, The Capulets and The Montagues.

Can someone please answer this for me... Which inference can a reader make based on the information in the excerpt? A.) Mr. H. K
kykrilka [37]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read the excerpt from The Dark Game.

Mr. H. quickly began talking to his contacts in the city.  Soon he heard of a British printer in Mexico City who had  been falsely arrested for printing counterfeit money. Mr.  H. Intervened with the British minister, who got the  frightened printer released from custody and the charges  against him dropped. The printer, overjoyed to be free,  told Mr. H. that he would welcome the opportunity to  repay the agent for his intervention. As a matter of fact,  Mr. H. told him, there was a favor the printer could do for  him

 Which inference can a reader make based on the  information in the excerpt?

A. Mr. H. knew the printer would help them upon release  from prison  B. Mr. H. was very concerned for the falsely imprisoned  printer.  C. Mr. H. and the printer had known each other for a long  time.  D. Mr. H. originally had not intended to employ the  printer's help.

Answer:

A.) Mr. H. Knew the printer would help them upon release in the prison.

Explanation:

In the text above, we can see that Mr. H. needed the services of a printer and when he heard of one who was imprisoned, unfairly, he went to great lengths to free the printer. He did this with second intentions, because if the printer was falsely accused and someone released him, the printer would be very grateful and would not refuse to help that someone out of gratitude.

In other words, we can say that this excerpt shows us that Mr. H. knew that the printer would help them after their release in prison.

How should a reader analyze indirect characterization? Check all that apply.
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

By noticing how the character interacts with other characters.

By noticing details about what the character says, does, and thinks.

By noticing how the other characters perceive the character.

By noticing the context, and use it to make inferences about the character.

Explanation:

Indirect characterization is the process by which the writer presents the personality of the character through different methods except for directly describing it. That is to say, the character is identified by the way he/she acts, talks and looks like, and this is how the reader determines what kind of person the character is.
