1.) According to Holinshed, what was Duncan like as a king?

English
1 answer:
Maru [420]3 years ago
4 0
The correct answer for 1 is b. Duncan is characterized as mild-mannered and altruistic, wanting only the best for his kingdom. Unfortunately, this makes him an easy target for those who want the throne. 

The correct answer for 2 is d. Macbeth is a brave and well-respected warrior. In fact, his victory on the battlefield brings him great honor. However, Macbeth demonstrates his cruelty in Holinshed's account after he ascends to the throne and rules over his kingdom. 

The correct answer for 3 is c. Banquo is initially Macbeth's ally during war, and then becomes an accomplice when Macbeth plots the murder of King Duncan (this is different from Shakespeare's interpretation of Banquo, who becomes Macbeth's rival for the throne).

The correct answer for 4 is a. As discussed in Question 1, Macbeth is a brave, valiant warrior, while Duncan is a more passive king. Macbeth, then, is confident that war will stop the rebels.

The correct answer for 5 is b. Holinshed repeatedly uses the word "women," and although he describes them more as fairies or nymphs rather than witches, he never actually uses these supernatural words to define them.

Read the following quote and write a reflection in which you connect it to one or more of the characters in the novel. “If you m
artcher [175]

Answer and Explanation:

The quote shown above reflects on how people position themselves in the way their peers behave in relation to it. In a simpler form, the quote indicates that if a person feels devalued by his peers, he will tend to isolate himself and distance himself from them, as a way of self-protection and conservation of his well-being.

In the novel "My sister's keeper" we can relate this concept to both Kate and Anna Fitzgerald. That's because, Kate feels that her life is tiring for her family, especially for her sister; in that case, as a form of protection, she wishes to die. Anna, on the other hand, feels that her family uses her for interests that are not hers and therefore, as a form of protection, she wants to separate from the family.

What are the five guidelines to scansion?​
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

The last foot (the anceps) always consists of two syllables so mark it so immediately. You can

regard the very last syllable as an unknown vowel length and mark it as an X (it will normally be

pronounced long no matter what)

2. The second to last foot is almost always a dactyl so mark it so immediately

3. The first syllable of every line of poetry is long no-matter-what so mark it so immediately.

4. The thesis (first syllable) of a foot is always long

5. The arsis (the second half) of a foot will either be one long or two shorts: there can be no

mixing and matching in the second half of the foot
