This is a taunt. Here MacDuff is telling MacBeth to yield and show himself to be a coward as well as a monster. People will come to see you, and you will be painted on a pole and underneath will be written "Here may you see the tyrant."

Act 5 Scene 8.
This is one of those multiple guess things that the correct answer is in the mind of the asker. You could argue all of them to be true. He does blame Lady MacBeth who went mad bearing that blame.

He (hypocritically) befriends Duncan even offering him protection and hospitality, only to betray both and this betrayal is certainly one of the worst possible crimes.

He murders the king.

And he does refuse to listen to the witches which are practically his only true friends throughout the play. They say what he needs to hear.

I see why this question is so hard. There is no answer that is easily eliminated.

His most villainous act is the betrayal of his lord and master, a king that ruled over him. I see subtle implications in B which likely is not what your teacher would choose.

C is probably what you are looking for, although I'm not sure anyone in the play has full knowledge of what he has done. Most would believe the concocted version that the guards were responsible.

Be prepared to get this marked wrong, but I would argue it politely and firmly, because all the choices are possible.

Answer: I would contend that the right answer is the C) It suggests the narrator traveled without thinking of the time.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that in these introductory lines from "The Fall of the House of Usher," which Poe first published in 1839, it is possible to infer that the narrator had been traveling for a while ("during a whole day") and, suddenly, he found himself near his destination, his friend's house. There are no indications of him being lost or angry, so options B and D can be discarded. In addition, the syntax does not suggest a magical component, since he uses adjectives such as "dull," "soundless," and "dreary" to describe his journey and what he encountered along it, and those words do not suggest a magical setting.

Answer: I'd choose

'Tommy is an imaginative boy who yearns or adventure.'

Explanation: My reasoning is he goes into more depth about wanting to be on the ship and what adventures he'd have and how he'd seek his fortune and his more 'imaginative' wording instead of talking about his hometown, or knowing more about ships at his age because it does not mention other boys his age, and Tommy spends to much time at the rivers edge watching ships isn't exactly what your supposed to get from the paragraph, I mean yeah you could, but it isn't the best answer/the one they are looking for.
