Answer:

The cyclops is compared to a mast because of his size.

Explanation:

"...but Cyclops went on filling up his belly with manflesh...then lay down like a mast among his sheep."

A mast is a giant shaft, usually on a ship that carries the sail. It is large to withstand the stress of the wind against the sail. The cyclops is also large and he fills up on the flesh of men making him larger. Laying amongst the sheep implies that he is quite full, and going for rest.

Cheers.

What does lady Macbeth ask for when learning of the king's appearance in her home

Allushta [10]

Answer:

Actually, Lady Macbeth questioned them to do this (or wishes they could) somehow or because she wants to help her husband kill Duncan and do the other things that he needs to do in order to become king. Her suggestion or request is based on the idea that women, by their nature, are unsuited for doing brutal things like that.
