Answer: In Merchant of Venice, Portia is a beautiful woman and obedient daughter, while Jessica is defiant and unreliable.
Explanation:
<em>The Merchant of Venice</em> is a comedy written by William Shakespeare. The main heroine of the play, Portia, is wealthy, beautiful, and so loyal that even after her father passed away, she respects the lottery protocol for potential suitors that her father set forth in his will. Jessica, on the other hand, disappoints her Jewish father (Shylock) by running away with a Christian (Lorenzo) and stealing his ducats, thus also abandoning her religion.
Answer:
About this time there occurred a strange incident which hardly anyone was able to understand. One night at about twelve o'clock there was a loud crash in the yard, and the animals rushed out of their stalls. It was a moonlit night. At the foot of the end wall of the big barn, where the Seven Commandments were written, there lay a ladder broken in two pieces. Squealer, temporarily stunned, was sprawling beside it, and near at hand there lay a lantern, a paint-brush, and an overturned pot of white paint. The dogs immediately made a ring round Squealer and escorted him back to the farmhouse as soon as he was able to walk. None of the animals could form any idea as to what this meant, except old Benjamin, who nodded his muzzle with a knowing air, and seemed to understand, but would say nothing.

In creative writing, point of view is the eye through which you tell a story.
There are three primary types of point of view:
First person point of view. In first person point of view, one of the characters is narrating the story.
Second person point of view. Second person point of view is structured around the “you” pronoun, and is less common in novel-length work.
Third person point of view.
