English

Answer:

Ophelia gives the rosemary to her brother Laertes.

She gave the flowers to him to most probably means she wants him to never forget her even after her death. it could also mean that she wants him to never give up on until he avenged their father's death.

Explanation:

In Act IV scene v of the play "Hamlet" by William Shakespeare, the scene projects the event where Laertes had arrived back to the kingdom to try to avenge the death of his father. He was given the rosemary flower by his "mad" sister Ophelia who had supposedly gone insane after being torn by the death of their father Polonius.

In her 'mad' scene, Ophelia uses the different flowers to present her inner feelings through them. She gave Laertes rosemary "for remembrance", signifying that she wants him to remember her (most probably). This flower which stand for fidelity, lover and romance 'lasting memory' is given to Laertes so that he may never forget to take revenge on their father's killer. Or it could also act as a foreboding act of what is to happen in the coming scenes, meaning she wants him to remember her after she dies.

Answer:

character versus self

Explanation:

We can see that the character shown in the text above is in conflict with himself, as he, in order not to disobey the God he believes, he will have to disobey the government that he was responsible to obey. This shows two natures, of the character, in confrontation, because, while one does not want to hurt his religious concepts, the other does not want to hurt his professional responsibility. This shows that the character has an internal conflict, within his own thoughts.

Which statement, if added to the passage, would BEST support the idea that insects are dangerous?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

I can't see the statements so I can't give a definite answer. However, think of it this way: We know the statement needs to add to the idea that insects are dangerous. So you need to chose the option that presents insects in a negative light or gives a specific reason to fear them. A neutral or positive fact about insects would not support the idea.

In the gift of magi what is dellas problem in the story
ANEK [815]
"The Gift of the Magi" tells the story of a young couple Jim and Della. Christmas is coming, and each wants to buy the other a present. The problem is that they really cannot afford to spend a lot of money on presents. Jim treasures his gold pocket watch, which has been given to him by his father. Della treasures her long, beautiful hair. 

As the story progresses, the two struggle to think of ways to buy a Christmas present for each other. Finally, on Christmas Eve, Della realizes she has next to no money left for her husband's Christmas present. What will she do??? 

At this point, she goes into town to search for something to buy with the little money she has. She knows that her husband's most prized possession is his pocket watch. She thinks that maybe she could buy him a chain for it, but they are all too expensive.

That's when Della realizes she has a way to EARN the money -- her hair. She runs out and has it cut short. She is able to sell the hair for enough money to buy the chain for her husband's watch.

Her husband comes home with a present for Della. When he sees her, however, he is shocked. She tells him she cut her hair for his present. When Jim hands her his present, we can see why he was so shocked. He had bought her a pair of really expensive hair combs. How could he afford such a gift? He had sold his most prized possession -- his watch -- just to buy his wife a present. 

Of course, now that Della has short hair, she cannot use the combs. And, now that Jim has sold his watch, he has no use for the chain. That aside, their love for one another is the greatest gift of all.

And so, Della's problem was how to buy a gift for her beloved husband. She solves this problem by selling her most prized possession, her hair.

Which two excerpts from Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis show how Gregor’s sister, Grete, transformed in the story?
Ad libitum [116K]

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

  • <em>"Father. You've got to get rid of the idea that that's Gregor. We've only harmed ourselves by believing if for so long.  "</em>
  • <em> "Grete was becoming livelier. With all the worry they had been having of late her cheeks had become pale, but, while they were talking, Mr. and Mrs. Samsa were struck almost simultaneously, with the thought of how their daughter was blossoming into a well built and beautiful young lady."</em>

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

Grete Samsa is the sister of Gregor of the story in Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka. Confronting the change of his sibling into a cockroach, Grete develops from being a modest young lady to a solid young lady, in the initial segment of the story Grete has a powerless identity and gives other a chance to abuse her however as the story proceeds with Grete's identity ends up more grounded.

Grete is the main person from Gregor's family that comprehends Gregor and can confront him as a cockroach, and her new obligations are what influence her certainty to develop, she is the one that understands that Gregor needs to go, and her folks see her change into a functioning and friendly young lady.
