A. He is nervous that he will be angered to see Montague.  Shakespeare's famous tragedy has many characters that play key roles in different parts of the play. Benvolio is a character, who is one of the closest to Romeo and here, he is nervous about Romeo seeing his father.  

Explanation:

He is trying make peace between the protagonist and his parents. The protagonist, son of Lord Montague lives away from them.

Here, he is trying to talk to Lord Montague and his wife who came to meet the protagonist and help him understand the consequences about his actions. The protagonist, being a person ignorant of these facts, cannot understand or even listen to what his parents are worried about.  

He is the closest cousin, as mentioned by Shakespeare in the play, tries to mold and mend thoughts of the protagonist as per the norms followed by Montague family. He acts as a mediator between his cousin and his parents in this scene stating that he will try to know what he feels and know his plan. He does not want his closest mate to get into an argument with his parents, who are genuinely worried about him.

Give me the meaning of these two adages thanks!
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer

"Look before you leap." means you shouldn't act without first considering the possible consequences or dangers. "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" means that it is challenging to teach a person something new things. Most likely that person has been doing things a certain way for so long that they're too stubborn to learn how to do it differently.

How does Prufrock's intellect affect his ability to interact with others? Does his intelligence help or hinder him?
GalinKa [24]
Prufrock has all the normal desires of a young man, but he is ultimately incapable of doing anything. He is compelled to think everything through, but it doesn't help him at all. The thoughts just can't transform into actions, in part because he is afraid, in part because he lacks confidence, and in part because he can see no sense in all of it. He doesn't "dare disturb the universe" by asking "an overwhelming question". He is only capable of entering trivial, petty interactions with the world obsessed with material, "the cups, the marmalade, the tea, / <span>Among the porcelain, among some talk of you and me". This matter renders Prufrock's existence futile, and he is all too aware of it. His intelligence doesn't help him at all, because it locks him into a self-indulgent, passive world, rendering him aware of all the impossibilities.</span>

You will complete your character study of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth by writing about their development from the beginning of the
Gwar [14]

One of the main motifs of the play is the decay of corruption. The development of both characters mimics the development of a disease. In a sense, Macbeth is a remake of the play Hamlet that has somewhat of a “happy ending” though centered not on Hamlet but on the usurper, Claudius.

The disease motif is quite evident as the play starts with a storm over a Scottish moor. The storm is like a feverish disease that attacks the body of the Scottish land and it foreshadows the decay and putrefaction that Macbeth’s ambition will bring upon Scotland. This is further exemplified by the introduction of the three witches; they are old, ugly, haggard and dirty. Macbeth is introduced as a courageous hero who kills a traitorous Scotsman. In other words, Macbeth is symbolically healthy, in his prime, both physically and morally. The infection occurs when the witches address him as Thane of Cawdor, and it is interesting to note that Banquo is NOT infected by the prophecies, just like some people are more vulnerable to diseases than others (usually because of a genetic predisposition). Macbeth resists contagion for a moment but quickly starts succumbing to it. Then his wife, Lady Macbeth (why is she unnamed?) is infected as well and she definitely has no “antibodies” for she succumbs very quickly to the disease. Due to the fact that she is the one that pushes Macbeth to regicide, she is like a personification of the Biblical Eve. Macbeth still tries to resist, but Lady Macbeth taunts him about his manhood and he finally falls. In act II there is even an interesting comic conversation between Malcolm and a porter about how alcohol provokes sleepiness, red noses and peeing further. In other words he is describing the symptoms of a disease and foreshadowing the effects of Macbeth’s contagion on Scotland. During the banquet, Macbeth sees Banquo’s ghost, though nobody else does, like the feverish hallucinations of a sick man. The sickening corruption will be further personified by Hecate, the returning witches and later by Lady Macbeth’s sleepwalking which is an actual disease, as she finally evolves into madness. There is even a doctor at the hall of Dunsinane which further emphasizes the disease motif by his mere presence. Lady Macbeth dies by killing herself and Macbeth dies by the sword of Malcolm. The infected lady Macbeth kills herself to escape her disease and Malcolm uses a symbolic scalpel to extirpate the cancerous Macbeth from Scotland.
