Macbeth, General of war of King Duncan from Scotland, was very much appreciated in the court by his skills in the combats:

"SCENE II. A camp near Forres.

Alarum within. Enter DUNCAN, MALCOLM, DONALBAIN, LENNOX, with Attendants, meeting a bleeding Sergeant

DUNCAN

What bloody man is that? He can report,

As seemeth by his plight, of the revolt

The newest state.

MALCOLM

This is the sergeant

Who like a good and hardy soldier fought

'Gainst my captivity. Hail, brave friend!

Say to the king the knowledge of the broil

As thou didst leave it."

One day, back from a victorious battle, accompanied by his friend Banquo, he is surprised by three witches with the next prophecies: Macbeth would be Thane of Cawdor and king of Scotland, and the descendants of Banquo would inherit the crown. The witches vanish on air, leaving the two characters thinking about the foresight of the supernatural power.

Surprisingly, a messenger of the king informs him about his nomination as Cawdor's Thane, making true so, one of the prophecies of the witches. In view of that, Macbeth glimpses the very position of reign, which dominates his soul and brings his perdition.

So, seized by a deep and furious sense of ambition and encouraged by Lady Macbeth, wife ruled by the same vile values, Macbeth kills the king Duncan, in search of the possession of the crown:


SCENE V. Inverness. Macbeth's castle.

Enter LADY MACBETH, reading a letter

(...)

MACBETH

My dearest love,

Duncan comes here to-night.

LADY MACBETH

And when goes hence?

MACBETH

To-morrow, as he purposes.LADY MACBETH

O, never

Shall sun that morrow see!

Your face, my thane, is as a book where men

May read strange matters. To beguile the time,

Look like the time; bear welcome in your eye,

Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower,

But be the serpent under't. He that's coming

Must be provided for: and you shall put

This night's great business into my dispatch;

Which shall to all our nights and days to come

Give solely sovereign sway and masterdom.

Which quote from the passage BEST conveys Frankenstein’s desire to kill the creature?
suter [353]

After reading the quotes, we can choose the following as the best one to convey Frankenstein's desire to kill the creature:

C. "Come on then, that I may extinguish the spark which I so negligently bestowed."

Dr. Victor Frankenstein, one of the characters in Mary Shelley's novel "Frankenstein," puts together body parts from different corpses and gives life to a horrendous creature.

Although the creature's appearance and existence is repulsive, it does have feelings, like a human.

However, Frankenstein is incapable of loving it. He soon begins to desire to kill the creature, especially when it  starts to destroy the things and people Frankenstein loves the most.

That is what is shown in the passage "Come on then, that I may extinguish the spark which I so negligently bestowed."

What he means is that he wants to take away the life he has given to the creature.

With that in mind, option C is the best choice.

How do the events in "Water Never Hurt a Man" change John by the end of the story?
Tems11 [23]
<span>The events in "Water Never Hurt a Man" changed John by the end of the story because: 

He becomes more confident in his ability to be a driver boy on the canal.

From a boy who is constantly afraid of being scolded and doing his tasks wrong, John becomes more like his father. He became more confident in doing his tasks and his mindset changed which has been evident in him saying "</span><span>"Water never hurt a man; it keeps his hide from cracking."</span>

HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!
Lerok [7]

Answer:

I agree with this statement because it is true. Those who do not learn history won’t know how things happened or who or what was affected. Therefore they are “destined” to repeat. You cannot become better at something without knowing how you failed or succeeded the last time. By understanding our past faults, we are able to connect the dots, so to speak, and create a better future for ourselves and future generations.

( I suggest running it thew a paraphrasing app so you don't get flagged)
