Answer: The best summary of this monologue is A. Portia says that if Brutus were simply sick, he would do something to get better. As his wife and other half, she pleads with him to tell her what is on his mind. Then she inquires about the men who were sneaking around their house.

Explanation: This excerpt has been taken from Shakespeare's <em>Julius Caesar. </em>In the play, Brutus is one of the conspirators who plans to murder Caesar in order to save the people of Rome. In that way, before getting involved in the conspiracy, Brutus is described as an honorable man. However, he is also depicted as a victim of the manipulation of Antony, Cassius and the other conspirators, which leads him to hide the conspiracy from his wife Portia. In this excerpt,<u> Portia asks Brutus to stop excluding her and tries to convince his husband to tell her what is going on with him by saying that two married people should not have secrets. </u>

2. Read the following excerpt from Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven":
madreJ [45]

The use of rhyme and repetition in "The Raven", by Edgar Allan Poe, are meant to affect the reader in the following way:

It causes the reader to sense how desperate and devastated the speaker is.

Since the raven is a symbol of death and loneliness, as well as of a somber state of mind, the speaker wants it to leave his house. The presence of the animal affects the speaker in an unbearable way, since it reminds him of the loss of his significant other.

The rhymes make it for a feeling of frantic desperation, whereas the repetition, particularly "nothing more" and "nevermore", shows how strongly mourning affects the speaker, how devastated he is.

We can see how badly the speaker wants the bird to leave in the following passage:

"Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my

door!"

Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."

Read the excerpts from " The Royal House of Thebes " and " The Story of a Warrior Queen ."
Kipish [7]

The excerpts from "The Royal House of Thebes" and "The Story of a Warrior Queen"  are similar because both express the theme that women are as capable as men.

Both stories present the idea that <u>women are as fearless and determined as men</u>.<u> Antigone and Boadicea are two female characters that are convinced of what they want and they know how to reach it</u>. Furthermore, they are both tragic heroines. In "The Royal House of Thebes", Antigone sacrifices her own life by disobeying Creon and burying Polyneices, her brother. Moreover, in "The Story of a Warrior Queen", Boadicea, the great queen, decides to poison herself before being attacked by her biggest enemies: the Romans.
