Answer:

B). Lady Macbeth's ambition to see her husband become king.

Explanation:

The tragic flaw also known as 'hamartia', is demonstrated as the inherent flaw or defect in a character's personality that brings his/her downfall. It may include desire, guilt, or any other attributes taking the character towards destruction. For example, Dr. Faustus' desire to gain supreme knowledge led him to dam-nation. Similar happened with Macbeth where his desire to gain power and authority led to his tragic downfall while Hamlet met his tragic end due to his impotence to take action.

As per the given question and options, the option that exemplifies hamartia(tragic flaw) is option B(Lady  Macbeth's ambition to see her husband become king) marking the beginning of her tragic downfall and leaving Macbeth in an utter state of despair and hopelessness. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

Which phrase or sentence in this excerpt from Kurt Vonnegut's "Report on the Barnhouse Effect" demonstrates the use of irony?
ycow [4]
<span>General Barker bustled about the house like a woman preparing Thanksgiving dinner for twenty.

This is the best example of irony. The excerpt describes General Barker, who occupies a traditionally very masculine profession, preparing for the demonstration of the most destructive weapon in the history of mankind as if he were a woman bustling about the house preparing Thanksgiving dinner. This juxtaposition creates a sense of irony. </span>

Look at this image from a passage about different types of volcanoes.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

C. To show a real-life example of a volcano

Explanation:

If the purpose was (A) to show how a volcano works, it would probably be shown in greater detail and from a clearer perspective. It the purpose was (B) to show the different parts of a volcano, than the image would not be so small or merely shown from the top. If the purpose was (D) to show the destructive power of a volcano, then it would likely show lava and its damage. Hence, the most probable answer is (C) to show a real-life example of a volcano.
