2 answers:
pav-90 [236]3 years ago

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.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Valedictory speech

Explanation:

Valedictorian is an academic title of success used in the United States, Canada, and other countries for the student who delivers the closing or farewell statement or a Valediction at a graduation or convocation ceremony. The chosen valedictorian is traditionally the student with the highest ranking or highest Grade Point Average, among their graduating class. The valedictory address generally is considered a final farewell or goodbye speech to classmates and the school before they disperse to pursue their individual paths after graduating. From the question since Frances GPA is very high and she graduated with honors, she is also to speak during the convocation ceremony, she is most likely giving a valedictory speech.

Match each analogy to the type of word relationship it illustrates. part-to-whole relationship item-category relationship cause
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

part-to-whole relationship: tail:mouse / scale:crocodile

item-category relationship: Monday:weekday / Saturday:weekend

cause-and-effect relationship: cut:bleed / burn:irritate

Explanation:

In an analogy, we find a relationship between different things, something that connects them. Let's analyze the analogies above.

  • A mouse is a whole that can be divided into several parts: ears, tails, paws, etc. The same goes for a crocodile: teeth, scales, stomach. Thus, with tail:mouse and scale:crocodile, we have a relationship of part to whole.
  • There are different days in a week: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, etc. Those days can be divided under different categories. Monday, for instance, can be categorized as a weekday. However, Saturday would be categorized under weekend since it is not a weekday. Thus, with Monday:weekday and Saturday:weekend, we have an item-category relationship.
  • Finally, if you cut yourself, you will most likely bleed. Bleeding is the effect of being cut. Cutting is the cause of bleeding. The same goes for getting burned (cause) and the skin getting irritated (effect). Thus, with cut:bleed and burn:irritate, the relationship is of cause and effect.
