How does capulet change the wedding plans? what implication does this have?
Bond [772]
Lord Capulet moves up the wedding plans This results in Juliet needing to fake her death sooner than expected. Because of this change, the letter from Friar Lawrence to Romeo does not make it to him on time. Romeo is unaware of Juliet's fake death and thinks that she has died for real. Of course, this results in his own suicide.

Read the excerpts below and answer the question.
Vladimir [108]

The correct option is option 1 (at the time the Spartans had dominion over Athens) and the selected words that apply are <u>authority</u> and <u>power</u>. Given that the definition of the noun "dominion", which is an uncountable noun, is "control, or the right to rule over something", the words mentioned before (authority and power) are the ones that are related to the topic developed in the first excerpt from Jefferson's Virginia Statute for Religious. In order to get the meaning, one can replace the word "dominion" for the word "control" in the phrase "men have assumed dominion over the faith of others" (men have assumed <u>control</u> over the faith of others). These two words contribute to the coherence of the text to get a better understanding of it.
