Answer:

B.  The death of Caesar

Explanation:

“Beware the ides of March," from William Shakespeare's tragedy "Julius Caesar" is one of the most famous examples of a phrase foreshadowing an event.

In Act I, Scene ii, the soothsayer warns Caesar to “beware the Ides of March!” which foreshadows Caesar's assassination on 15th March.  The Elizabethan audience of Shakespeare's age would like have known that Caesar was assassinated on 15th March 44 B.C. So this phrase served the purpose of foreshadowing for them. The phrase appears again in Act III, scene i on 15th March, when Caesar tells the soothsayer that see ides of March has come, and the soothsayer warns again, that it is not gone yet.

In the Roman calendar the ides of March corresponded to 15th March. It was an important day for Roman for several religious observances and for settling the debts.

Which of the follow best describes how the man in the box on the sled
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

A reminder of what the characters face.

Explanation:

Jack London's novel "White Fang" revolves around the story of a wild wolfdog named White Fang. The story delves into the life of the wolf-dog, a mix breed offspring and his survival, and eventually ends up as a domestic pet in California.

The given passage is from Part 1 of the story where two men, Henry and Bill were passing through the snowy wilderness, in a sled pulled by their six dogs. The author includes a certain detail about one man who had died and was kept in a box on the sled, <em>"a man whom the Wild had conquered and beaten down until he would never move nor struggle again"</em>. The narrator continues, <em>"It is not the way of the Wild to like movement. Life is an offense to it, for life is movement; and the Wild aims always to destroy movement [...] man who is the most restless of life, ever in revolt against the dictum (law) that all movement must, in the end, come to the cessation of movement"</em>.

This statement seems suggestive of the obstacles or force of nature that the characters have faced. The Wild represents the conflict they are met with, and thus, make the dead man a representation of what the other two characters are to face in their journey.

Which statement is true? Cassius is considered the protagonist because he orchestrates the conspiracy, which restores honor to R
Sholpan [36]
I am sure it is the last statement where Brutus and Cassius are the antagonists. Only because Caesar isn't a traditional antagonist or protagonist.
