Answer:

The full question is:

Read this excerpt from Frankenstein.

It is impossible to communicate to you a conception of the

trembling sensation, half fearful, with which I am preparing

to depart. I am going to unexplored regions. ... Shall I

meet you again, after having traversed immense seas, and

returned by the most southern cape of Africa or America? |

dare not expect such success, yet I cannot bear to look on

the reverse of the picture. ... Remember me with

affection, should you never hear from me again.

Which words best describe the overall tone of this passage?

A. Calm and contemplative

B. Excited and cautious

C. Tentative and curious

D. Resentful and angry

The answer is B. Excited and cautious.

Explanation:

Going through the text, the writer's excitement is communicated with words like "trembling sensation". He is excited about the journey he is about to take but he is also aware of the dangers, therefore cautious.

So as he writes, he takes care not to expect much success. He also anticipates that he may not return, hence the line "should you never hear from me again".

He is clearly excited about his journey but cautious about the dangers and cautious enough not to ignite hope about his return to whoever he is writing to.

Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet depicts the lives of two lovers and the events of their lives as they hide their love from their parents. The personalities, attitudes, and emotions of Romeo and Juliet mimic those of teenagers today.

<span>These similarities occur in the way Romeo and Juliet and teens today act. The first likeness is in the word choice they all use. In the play, Juliet chooses her words carefully while talking to Count Paris so that she doesn’t commit herself to him or say that she doesn’t want to be his wife. This deceiving word play is copied by teenagers in the present day. They also talk themselves out of a tuff situation by misleading whoever they are talking to. The word used to describe this is equivocal, meaning that there could be many interpretations of what is being said.</span>

These lines are:
<em>Parting is such sweet sorrow</em><em>That I shall say good night till it be morrow.

</em>Neither Romeo nor Juliet want this night to end because they don't want to leave each other's side. They want to stay together the entire night, but given that they are unable to, Juliet speaks those famous parting words, wishing to meet Romeo again in the morning.
