Answer:

The missing options available for this question are:

  1. . He knows that he is a much better swordsman than Malcolm.
  2. He knows that Malcolm would not be able to approach the castle from Birnam Wood.
  3. He is overconfident in his ability to fight against Malcolm and his army.
  4. He believes the witches’ prophecy that no man born of a woman can harm him.

<u>The correct answer of the question is option 4. </u>

Explanation:

The Tragedy of Macbeth is a play written by William Shakespeare first performed in 1606. This play is also known as 'Macbeth'. This is the shortest of Shakespeare's tragedy written without subplot in Five acts. The play is about Macbeth's blind ambition of becoming a king.

The story is foreshadowed with the appearance of three witches or weird sisters. They prophesy for Macbeth and his friend Banquo:

  1. Macbeth will become thane of Cawdor.
  2. king of Scotland
  3. And, descendant of Banquo will be kings.

Macbeth in his ambition of becoming the king, plans to murder the now king, King Duncan and eventually executes it and becomes the new king of the Scotland. Worried with the third prophesy of witches, he kills his friend Banqou also. After Banqou's death, his ghost scares Lady Macbeth and is driven into madness. Then three witches comforts Macbeth who is fearful that he will not be killed by a man born of a woman. So, in Act V, when Malcolm approaches his kingdom, Macbeth remains unafraid that Malcolm can harm him because he is a human. But, Malcolm was born of 'cesarean section', meaning 'not born of a woman'.

so, the correct option is 4.

Answer:

First, be sure the anecdote you have in mind is relevant to the context. If you are writing about dogs, for example, an anecdote about a cat is irrelevant. Ask yourself, “Why do I want to use this anecdote? What point does it illustrate?”

Next, consider these questions:

Who was involved in the story?

What happened?

When did it happen? Is this relevant?

Where did it happen? Is this relevant?

Explanation: that tells you how to write the paragraph.. here is an example paragraph:

(p.s do not copy this, try to use your own words for these paragraphs)

A female boss I worked under years ago didn’t like hiring young women, “They’re just going to get married and move away or have babies, and then we have to give them maternity leave,” she would say. This illustrates that women are sometimes also guilty of gender discrimination.

You can also use anecdotes to amuse or entertain. Not all anecdotes are serious! If something really funny happens to you today, you’ll tell your friends, won’t you? That’s an anecdote! Here’s one of my favorites:

My brother used to have an absolute obsession with answering the phone in time. He would get quite agitated if it stopped ringing before anyone picked up. One day, the phone started ringing while he was in the bathroom. He called out in a panicky voice, “Ring the phone! It’s answering!” The phone didn’t get answered. I was laughing much too hard for that!

hope this helps plz mark me brainliest
