1. August 15 may also be the day on which he became King after his forces killed King Duncan near Elgin probably on August 14, 1040.

2. Shakespeare’s play, ending in Macbeth’s death, takes place over a year whereas in reality, Macbeth ruled for 17 years.

3. Macbeth calls Duncan “cousin” in the play though it is not certain they were first cousins.

4. Chroniclers of the time described Macbeth as a “liberal king” with “fair, yellow hair and tall” and having a “ruddy countenance”.

5. Scotland was so peaceful under his rule that Macbeth made a pilgrimage to Rome in 1050.

6. The name “Macbeth” (or MacBheatha or Mac Bethad) means ‘son of life’ in Gaelic.

7. Macbeth is the only play by Shakespeare that includes the word ‘rhinoceros’.

8. Nancy MacBeth was leader of the Alberta Liberal Party in Canada from 1998-2001.

9. The origins of the superstition against saying “Macbeth” in a theatre are unclear. One idea is that Shakespeare took some lines for his three witches from a real coven who cursed the play.

10. The role of Macbeth is 719 lines long, which is only half the length of Hamlet.

What challenge do presidents in particular face when persuading an audience?
natta225 [31]

The correct answer is: Option C. Must appeal to several different groups.

In the majority of the countries - especially in the United States -, there is an abundance of distinctive cultural, religious, and ideological groups with different needs and opinions.

For a president, as the face of the country and national identity, it is challenging to search for ways of satisfying a singular group's needs and desires without jeopardizing ties with those of another.

To explain how chemotherapy is administered to cancer patients
lbvjy [14]

The answer to eliminate is C: to inform the public about the health benefits about the benefits of eating fruits & vegetables. Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables has been associated with a reduced risk of developing many types of cancer. This point is no longer valid to a person that has already developed cancer, and must now receive chemotherapy as treatment. The more useful points would be to explain the role of an oncologist and to have a young survivor speak to their experiences. An Oncologist will be the doctor in charge of prescribing and overseeing treatment, so it is important that patients know what issues can be addressed via this route. A cancer survivor will give insight as to what to expect during chemotherapy, how to best deal with side effects and how to navigate the healthy system.
