Answer: The sentences that use definition 3 of the word "baste" are "The maids were ordered to baste the quilt to keep the layers in place" and "Before stitching the gown, Marie learned to baste the seams of a dress for a fitting".

Explanation: In sentences 2 and 4 ("The maids were ordered to baste the quilt to keep the layers in place" and "Before stitching the gown, Marie learned to baste the seams of a dress for a fitting")<u> the word "baste" means to sew with long stitches in order to hold something together</u>. In the case of sentence 2, what is meant to hold together is a quilt, while in sentence 4, what are held in place are the seams of a dress. In that way, <u>both sentences use definition 3 of the word "baste".</u> In contrast, sentence 1 uses definition 2, and sentences 3 and 5 use definition 1.

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Explanation:

The most valuable resource that we as living beings have is "Time". Everyone has a very finite amount of time to live our lives. This makes every second incredibly valuable. Being able to travel larger and larger distances faster than ever before gives us the gift of time (in a way) by allowing us to spend less time travelling and/or waiting to get to our destinations. This makes travelling at faster speeds invaluable and the process of achieving this a great use of our time.

balandron [24]

Answer:

Spoken by Macbeth in Act V scene v, after Seyton brought the news of Lady Macbeth's death, implying at the meaninglessness of one's life.

Explanation:

These lines are a quote from the tragedy play "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare. Taken from Act V scene v, these words are said by Macbeth after he hears of the death of his wife, lady Macbeth.

Macbeth at first seemed to be shaken with the news brought by Seyton that "the queen, my lord, is dead." But then, Macbeth began talking of the inevitability of death for everyone. He accepts that "she should have died hereafter", and that "Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player/ That struts and frets his hour upon the stage

/ And then is heard no more. It is a tale

/ Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,

/ Signifying nothing." This could also be taken as his acceptance of the meaninglessness of human life, which also indirectly made his act of murdering King Duncan an insignificant act. He is in a way, justifying his murderous acts and seems to imply their insignificance. After all,  life is just a shadow cast by a brief candle.

NikAS [45]
This is a part of his supreme ordeal. His return home is much broader and includes his supreme ordeal which is what you described in the question. He fought them because he wanted to stop them from taking his wife Penelope. This was during the competition where they had to prove themselves.
