Macbeth is a tragedy by William Shakespeare. Macbeth of being made Thane of Cawdor, he writes to his wife about it and that what he has been tempted by the three weird sisters. Being excited about being king, also he is disturbed by "New honors" and the working of the supernatural world where "Nothing is/But what is not."

Macbeth deliberates about killing Duncan in scene 7.

"If it were done when 'tis done, then 'twere well

It were done quickly...

But this blow

Might be the be-all and end-all--here,

But, here, upon this bank and shoal of time,

We'd jump the life to come..."

Thing that Macbeth is concerned about is regicide being a serious crime and a grievous offense. It can upset the Chain of Being, for whom the king was God's deputy on earth. Macbeth is reluctant to kill King Duncan and he is host to the king and should prevent from any kind of harm to the king. In a fear of being punished by heaven to kill a king who is virtuous, Macbeth decides not to murder Duncan and concludes it as his "vaulting ambition."

Therefore, the passage which best explains Macbeth's reasoning for not murdering Duncan is B.Duncan is such a good and popular king; it would be cruel to kill him and make the country sad.

A paragraph about What motivates him to help Romeo and Juliet to defy their parents?

kaheart [24]

The Friar also hopes to force the parents to realize how much they love their daughter as they believe her dead. Friar Laurence hopes that when Juliet is "returned to life" Lord and Lady Capulet will be so overjoyed that she is alive that they will be reasonable about her marriage and seek to ameliorate their relationship with the Montagues. He promises Juliet that he will send for Romeo that she may return to Mantua with him when she awakens.
Now, to return to the first interference of Friar Laurence. It is stated by him that the Friar does, indeed, not want the couple to commit mortal sins by having sexual relations outside of marriage However, it also stands to reason and is consistent with his thinking in the second situation that the Friar also hopes that if the chldren of the feuding families marry, then the parents may feel compelled to live amicably for the sake of their children's happiness as well as for that of possible grandchildren. He tells Romeo, One of the contrasts between Friar Lawrence and most of the rest of the city is that he is supposed to be loyal to his parishioners, regardless of which family they are in, etc. He is also protected to a certain extent from the politics of the city because he is of the church, something held sacred by both families.
Because of this, I believe he acts mainly out of a genuine desire to see what is best happen for Romeo and Juliet and without a great deal of concern to the consequences of that union. He is of course also interested in their salvation so he is certainly willing to marry them before they commit a serious sin like fornication, which he must have known they were wont to do! Hope I helped :))))

Answer:

okay so I think the best answer choice would be "Many new bicycles have begun to appear in stores, and we'll show you the best ones."

It makes sense because the article is supposed to be about COMPARING bicycles and this is the only one that really implies that there will be a comparison of diff bicycles. hope this helps.

I believe the answer is a noun.
Explanation: Verbs usually come after nouns (they describe them). In this situation, it said desire was radiating from the lion’s skin, so radiating is describing the lion’s desire.
