Think Questions

Molodets [167]

1. We can infer from the details of the passage that true or romantic love is more complex than lust because: it's more complex because we have no control over it and it is permanent.

2. The inferences that one can make about the types of subjects she has studied in addition to psychology is that she has studied "Philosophy".

<h3>What is inference?</h3>

Inference refers to the conclusion that one arrives as a result of observation and evaluation. Inference tends to be the final conclusion of an experimentation.

Sentence Frames:

1. In paragraph 2, the physicist Jim Al-Khalili states that lust is "is a

temporary passionate s**ual desire" and that it increases the release of a few chemicals in the body. On the other hand, true love "love is a powerful neurological condition like hunger or thirst, only more permanent" and is a condition he describes as "permanent" which shows that true love is more complex than lust.

In paragraph 3, the psychotherapist Philippa Perry refers to "love". In paragraph 4, she mentions "Aristotle" and lists "the philosophical saying of Aristotle".

Therefore, I can infer that Perry has studied "Philosophy".

3. In paragraph 7, the romantic novelist Jojo Moyes explains that love can be like "an obsession" and be "all consuming" so I can infer she is likely to include characters who were obsessed by love. Moyes also says that what "fascinates" her is "what separates love." Therefore, I can infer the plots of her books probably contain the incidences that led to separation of love.

Tybalt is portrayed as a villain in the play, and yet his death is not a positive event. Why is Tybalt’s death bad for Romeo and

SashulF [63]

Well.... Tybalt is Juliet's cousin. Although he is mischievous and a bit of a rogue, he is still well-loved by Juliet and the rest of her family (the entire Caulet clan).
Romeo is now a murderer (forcing him into a rapid departure), and a murderer of a member of Juliet's family to boot! If things weren't already against him in blood alone, this act would certainly sour any advancements he could have possibly made in asking Juliet's father for her had in marriage.
