Answer: C. The events of the Inferno take place before Dante was exiled from Florence.

Dante Alighieri was an Italian poet, writer and political thinker. He is the author of <em>The Divine Comedy</em>, considered one of the greatest works of Mediaeval literature. The work draws on Dante's experience of exile from his native city in Florence. However, the events of <em>Inferno</em> take place before Dante was exiled from Florence. Inferno is the first section of this epic poem, the other two being <em>Purgatory</em> and <em>Paradise</em>.

In the play Romeo and Juliet, study the characters Benvolio and Mercutio, including the meaning behind their names. What are the
prohojiy [21]

The name Benvolio means "one who makes peace". this meaning is an omen about Benvolio's role in the narrative and its importance within the story. Benvolio was a friend and cousin of Romeo, as well as being a great opponent of the enmity between the Capulets and the Montagues.

Benvolio assumes the role of peacemaker between the two families, he wants the enmity between him and Tybalt to end and that this does not generate fights between the two. He is also responsible for animating Romeo, at the beginning of the story, when Romeo is depressed by a loving and peaceful heart, he tries to free Romeo from the death sentence and is portrayed as a calm, peaceful, pious and kind boy.

The name Mercutio means "for of mercury", and refers to the quick, shrewd and explosive nature of this character. As we know, Mercutio is also a friend of Romeo, but unlike Benvolio, he has an expansive, temperamental and warm personality. Mercutio's main role in the plot is to be the opposite of Benvolio and to be an emotional character who acts on impulse and the impetus of his emotions. This causes him to indulge in a conflict with Tybalt, who ends up taking his life and causing Romeo's banishment.

The different endings between these two characters, shows how personality interferes in the development of their lives. Benvolio for being calm and rational helps his friend and has a long life ahead of him. Mercútio, being temperamental and emotional, causes one of the main problems of his friend and ends up losing his life in a brutal way.

Which underlined verb is in the passive voice? The veterans gave us a lecture about the Vietnam War. The lecture about the Vietn
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The lecture about the Vietnam War was given by veterans.

Explanation:

Among the options given, the only one in the Passive Voice is "The lecture about the Vietnam War was given by veterans."

In the Passive Voice, the focus of the sentence is on the action itself, not on who or what performed the action. Thus, the subject of the sentence is not the person, thing, or animal etc. who actually carried out the action. That would be the agent. The structure is:

subject + auxiliary verb (if necessary) + verb be + main verb in the past participle + agent (if necessary).

So:

The lecture about the Vietnam War - subject

was - verb be

given - main verb in the past participle

by veterans - agent
