The lines in the above excerpt from Act V of Shakespeare's “Romeo and Juliet” which reflect the conflict of person versus the unknown are:

“Of death, contagion, and unnatural sleep:

A greater power than we can contradict 

Hath thwarted our intents.”

When Juliet rises from her 'unnatural sleep' and asks Friar Laurence about her beloved Romeo she comes to know that Romeo had died after drinking the poison. Frair Laurence tells her that 'a greater power' which is death has shown its supremacy and had occurred.

The stretch that reflects the conflict of the person versus the unknown is  "Of death, contagion, and unnatural sleep:

A greater power than we can contradict  

Hath thwarted our intents."

In this passage Frei Laurence is explaining to Juliet that "a greater power" took the life of Romeo and that they can do nothing about it, because this greater power is more powerful than them.

And this is a perfect example of conflict between a person and the unknown, because until then the "greater power" which the friar was referring to was something unknown to them who are people.

Answer:

In this bizarre new world we live in, expect the unexpected. The normal chronology of life has been altered. After the epidemic, the Organization had to instill an embargo on unnecessary travel. It was for our own good. Their catchy slogans filled with alliterations and analogies to make us remember .By "staying inside at all costs" we were keeping each other alive.  Local scientists believed that strange antibodies mixed with the chemicals made these zombie-like creatures. Some of us were lucky enough to not carry them. The Organization believed it was deign to talk to anyone outside our walls, that they could be infected too. At the time, everyone was an exponent of their ideas because we all wanted to survive. But Now? I am ready to boycott.  As I step outside for the fist time in years, covered in green camouflage and overly enthusiastic, I am ready to reunite with the world.  

hope this helps more than the former

Which of the following may be used as counterarguments against the argument that nature can repair all things? Check all of the
Ierofanga [76]

The death of a loved one is a disaster that nature cannot heal.

Answer: A

Explanation

Nature will not heal that wound that is left after losing a loved one.

Even though nature creates fascinating patterns, it will not close the wound left.

However, time will be the determinant of the healing process.

This is because the effect of losing someone is eternal, and it is time that will heal the wounds.

Ultimately, nature will only create shorter healing, but once the one forgets about life, the injuries will be still fresh.

Therefore nature does not repair everything.

What was Ray Bradbury's political views?
yarga [219]
Ray Bradbury was disturbed by the future of America. He was afraid for the fate of the whole earth, he acutely felt the threat of fascism. His political views are reflected in his works. That's why he received a special distinction: his name was included in fascists' list of those who was sentenced to death. On a day when they will come to power... But that day will never come because Ray Bradbury is not alone in America.
