A. brief examples
B. synthetic examples
C. repetitive examples
D. enumerated examples
E. informative examples
Answer:
The kind of supporting materials being used in the excerpt is:
A. brief examples
.
Explanation:
<u>The purpose of using brief examples is to simply further illustrate or demonstrate something to the audience that they may not know, that is not so obvious to them. That is precisely what we have in the excerpt we are analyzing here. The speaker merely wishes to show his/her audience that there are several couples in Hollywood who have been married for quite some time. There is no need to used, for instance, an extended example here. What has been said so far is not so complex as to demand a lengthy example</u>. Notice that the speaker is not necessarily enumerating the couples, nor is he/she providing two much information about them. Their names and how long they've been married are briefly stated, which is enough for the purpose of illustrating the affirmation that "Not all Hollywood marriages are doomed to quick failure."
1) The witches predictions foreshadow what might happen because they are predictions that are at the beginning of the play and in the middle too, so the tension is building up as to why the witches said them.
2) Macbeth's reactions to the first 3 predictions were no other than shocked and confused. The other 3 predictions, he didn't care because he thought he was unbeatable and nothing and nobody can stop him!! But his ambitions so go down hill as his ambitions take control over him. He is a 'brave solider' at the beginning of the play, but turns into a 'dangerous' criminal near the end of the play. Macbeth's ambitions are his biggest weakness of everything.
3) Lady Macbeth is a clever, but deep down she is cruel as her husband is. She influenced her husband to kill Duncan, even if Macbeth didn't want too. The term 'coward' was used to make Macbeth have the courage to kill Duncan. Also Lady Macbeth wanted to change from being a woman to being a man, 'Come to my woman's breast and take my milk for gall' and 'unsex me here' meaning she want to have the courage to kill Duncan. She wants man power because women were know as the 'weak' ones and Lady Macbeth wanted to be the strongest one.
4) I don't know about this one, but I have some ideas about some thought.
- Macbeth feels guilty, remorse, from killing Duncan. (He has a guilty conscience).
- He starts having hallucinations, especially after the death of Banquo. He hears voices after the murder of Duncan, 'Macbeth does murder sleep' and this creeps him out. And the dagger that leads him to the kings room.
- His kingship was bad to begin with.
- Macbeth's Fate and Free will change throughout the play.
I hope this helps as much as it will help me!!! I'm sorry if I didn't help with question 4, I didn't know that one, but I did the other 3!!
Reading Jane Eyre's Education, the most striking positive outcome of her engagement in education is the desire for self-education. This certainly contributes to her prospect for future life, because such a developed character helps throughout the whole life in various newly emerging circumstances. Furthermore, the ability to read gives her a sense of the world, and develops her imagination, improves the use of language, as well as the invocation to say and to fight for what she thinks. What she develops as a tool for achieving what she thinks, which is the result of reading and developing imagination, intuition, and strong attitude, is creating strong preferences and antipathies to what she considers to be unjust. Thus, she develops a strong sense of justice and hatred for oppression. All this is certainly preparation for future life.
On the other hand, a school with a rigorous and rigid Christian morality constantly reminds them of a dependable status, and it implies female non-generative nature and uses rudeness to suppress their natural behavior. This fact always limits personality, and it never reflects well on future life. What also fails to prepare for future life is the fact that education teaches them basic musical performances, basic art skills and a little foreign language. They teach them to be cultivated but do not make them useful for anything other than teaching. Education is a safe haven, because it does provide emotional satisfaction in a protected area separate from the world's hardship. That is partly good, but education should teach how to cope with all the difficulties of the world.
