pop culture.


It's referencing Superman.


You could argue that Superman stems from a body of famous literary work (that is, the source comics), but that's probably not what they're looking for. As Superman is best known from a combination of comics, cinema, TV and merchandise, it's basically a pop culture reference.

In a ten-sentence paragraph, explain how the story “By the Waters of Babylon” would change if it were told from John's father's
Veronika [31]

By the Waters of Babylon” would change if it were told from John's father's point of view as it'll reveal the perspective of the father.

<h3>How to explain the story?</h3>

The plot follows John as he travels on his initiation quest to prove himself to his tribe as a man and a priest. John bases his journey decisions on visions and his interpretation of the signs he sees in the natural world. John breaks many of his tribe's laws because of his thirst for knowledge.

John learns chants, spells, and other mysteries from the priests. He picks up wound-healing techniques as well as the "old method" of reading and writing. John explains that although if a lot of the priests' work isn't actually magic, his father feels it's okay to let other people think it is.

Which lines in this excerpt from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet foreshadow the tragic fate of Romeo and Juliet? (FAN&amp;MEDAL)
Marina CMI [18]

The correct answer is lines 3 and 4. What those two lines are saying is that Romeo's love for Juliet is so powerful that its is overcoming all of his other emotions and that if he doesn't control it soon then it will be the death of him. So pretty much its just saying that they are both in way over their heads and they should chill out before someone gets hurt.

So smile the heavens upon this holy act,

Do thou but close our hands with holy words,

<u>Then love-devouring death do what he dare; </u>

<u>These violent delights have violent ends </u>

Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
