Which Character in the Diary of Anne Frank do you dislike the most? What have the playwrights written to make you feel this way
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

The characters I like least are Mr. and Mrs. Van Daan.

Explanation:

"The Diary of Anne Frank" is a play that seeks to reproduce the events lived by Anne Frank and her family while they were hidden during the second world war to get rid of the Nazi concentration camps. The play is based on the book 'The Diary of Anne Frank. "

In this play, the characters I least like are Lord and Mrs. Van Daan, another Jewish family that was hidden with the Frank Family. That's because, playwrights introduced them as very selfish and quarrelsome people. Ms. Van Daan criticizes Anne and Ms. Frank all the time, while Mr. Van Daan is bitter and dishonest, as he was caught stealing food. In addition, they are shown to be very disarming when Mr. Dussel arrives at the hideout and are hypocritical at times, which makes them very difficult characters to be admired.

dlinn [17]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read the excerpt from Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.

You are mistaken, Mr. Darcy, if you suppose that the mode of your declaration affected me in any other way, than as it spared me the concern which I might have felt in refusing you, had you <u>behaved in a more gentleman-like manner.</u>

Which type of phrase is the underlined portion of the sentence?

A.  adverbial phrase

B.  verb phrase

C.  absolute phrase

D.  adjectival phrase

Answer:

D.  adjectival phrase

According to the sentence underlined in the question above, we can see that this sentence aims to convey a characteristic that Mr. Darcy lacks. The phrase refers to the lack of delicacy, which represents that Mr. Darcy behaved in a rude and rude manner. This phrase, therefore, refers to a characteristic of Darcy and is therefore an adjective phrase.

Is the ending of Romeo and Juliet a tragedy or a triumph? Defend your answer with examples and reasons from the play
Annette [7]

Answer: Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy.

Explanation:

The prologue of this play establishes it as a tragedy by using key words like "fatal", "piteous", and "strife". Shakespeare lets the audience know from the very first lines that this is a tragic tale.

"From forth the fatal loins of these two foes

A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life,

Whose misadventured piteous overthrows

Doth with their death bury their parents' strife."

Of course, he further elaborates on the tragedy through the scenes just foreshadowed. Romeo and Juliet, our protagonists both die. In a triumphant ending, we would see the protagonist achieve their desires.

There are subtle examples of the tragedy as well. In Act 2 Scene 2, Juliet laments on their unfortunate circumstance. "O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?" She isn't asking where he is, but why he has to be a Montague. Though it is a romantic scene in which they reveal their desires, it is inherently tragic. They can never truly be together.
