Read the passage from Black Boy. From the white landowners above him there had not been handed to him a chance to learn the mean

ing of loyalty, of sentiment, of tradition. Joy was as unknown to him as was despair. As a creature of the earth, he endured, hearty, whole, seemingly indestructible, with no regrets and no hope. He asked easy, drawling questions about me, his other son, his wife, and he laughed, amused, when I informed him of their destinies. I forgave him, and pitied him as my eyes looked past him to the unpainted wooden shack. What does this excerpt suggest? As an adult, Wright has a strong positive regard for his father and wants to get to know him. As an adult, Wright believes he will never fully accept the way his father treated him. As an adult, Wright is disgusted with his father’s ignorance and his flippant manner. As an adult, Wright has a different perspective of his father than he did when he was a child.

As an adult, Wright has a different perspective of his father than he did when he was a child.

In the passage the speaker talks about his father when he says, "there had not been handed to him a chance". This makes it seem as though the speaker understands that his father did not have much of a choice. Then at the end of the passage the speaker says "I forgave him, and pitied him as my eyes look past him to the unpainted wooden shack." These details show that there has been some type of change in the speaker in regards to his father. At one point he may have blamed his father and been angry with him, but this frustration or annoyance is no longer there for the speaker. The way the speaker views his father has changed since he was a boy.

1. Do you think Macbeth or his wife is responsible for his willingness to kill for power? Why do you feel this
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

1. Macbeth is responsible for his willingness to kill for power.  If you kill for power, you cannot absolve yourself of responsibility.  If your family urges you to commit evil, refrain and restrain them.  Never act on their urgings.  Remember, Eve also led Adam to eat from the forbidden fruit.

2. Pressure from family or friends can potentially lead us to make dangerous or harmful decisions when we listen to and act on their advice.  You must prove yourself a person by not being swayed by pressure.  Know at whose altar you worship!

3. Macbeth was not ordinarily a successor to the throne of Scotland.  It was his wife, Lady Macbeth, who had the right to ascend to the throne before her marriage to Macbeth.  To achieve power and authority without sacrificing or harming others, one should learn to be patient.  If anything will be yours, it will surely come to pass.  Allow time to pass.  Do not hurry time by committing atrocities.

4. Greedy ambition unrestrained by morality is devastating both to the ambitious and others around them.  Macbeth and Lady Macbeth could not hold the throne after murdering Duncan.  Therefore, I must apply moral principles to my ambitions in life.  If no one is adversely affected by my ambition, I will then pursue it relentlessly.  But, if somebody will be adversely affected by any of my ambitions, I will try as much as humanly possible to curtail and control such ambitions.  God helping me with His grace!

Explanation:

Macbeth is the title of a tragedy written by William Shakespeare.  It chronicles Macbeth's killing of Duncan, his cousin and King of Scotland, and the subsequent destruction that erupted in and around the kingdom following Macbeth's destructive madness after ascending the throne.

What does "The great calm has ceased, The quiet sands have run" mean. This is from poetry.
AleksAgata [21]
It is simply saying that all is now in chaos. I am assuming the part that is confusing is "the quiet sands have run." It could easily be alluding to the way that during a sandstorm, the calm sands of the surface are no longer there as the chaos of the storm casts them about.
