"If the Party could thrust its hand into the past and say this or that even, it never happened—that, surely, was more terrifying than mere torture and death" (Orwell 126)

Explanation:

I found this quote in my packet that my teacher had made for us a couple years ago. I hope it helps! Her quote may be on a different page though, the book pages vary.

This quote is personification because it gives the Party human characteristics ("thrusting its hand" is the characteristic.)

Smirnov asks for his money back.

In the beginning of “The Bear,” by Anton Checkov, the readers are introduced to two characters—Luka and Popova. All of the information (possible choices/responses) for this question is presented. Readers do find out that Popova’s husband was unfair to her. Readers do find out that Popova’s husband has died. Readers do find out that Luka has lost his wife. And, readers do find out that Smirnov asks for his money back. However, the fact that Smirnov asks for his money back does not immediately occur in the play, and readers find this information out only after the play establishes itself. As such, this bit of information does not occur during the exposition (beginning/background information) of the play.

Act 1 scene 2 of the tragedy of Julius Caesar What moral dilemma does this excerpt express?

JulsSmile [24]

Answer: Brutus has to decide between loyalty to Caesar and his own honor.

Explanation:

This excerpt expresses the main dilemma of the whole play - that is, the conflict between being a loyal friend and one's own honor.

In Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, a group of conspirators decides to murder the roman general, Caesar, because he has assumed too much power. They do not want him to become a king. In Act I, Scene II, Brutus, a friend of Caesar's, confesses his true feelings. As he hears that people want Caesar to assume this position, he makes a confession to Cassius, one of the conspirators, that he would not like this to happen. As he puts it, he does love Caesar, but loves his honor more. He is not even afraid of death, if that is the price he has to pay.
