Answer:

The natives did not care about the elephant destroying their homes.

Explanation:

This is the irony that the speaker tries to highlight in the passage. In this text, the speaker feels concerned and overwhelmed at the idea of shooting the elephant. He does not want to do it, but feels forced to because the natives demand it. However, ironically, there does not seem to be any good reason to do so besides the spectacle, as the natives did not seem particularly upset when the elephant was destroying their homes.

Act II, Scene ii opens with a series of soliloquies before Romeo and Juliet speak to each other. What is the best description of
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The answer is indeed C) The soliloquies create a romantic, intimate mood

Explanation:

A soliloquy takes place when characters speak their thoughts out loud, usually believing they are alone and, therefore, not being heard. In the famous Shakespearean tragedy "Romeo and Juliet", those very characters fall in love with each other even though they come from rival families.

In Act II, scene II, Romeo begins to speak to himself as he sees Juliet up in a balcony. His soliloquy expresses how romantic his feelings are toward her; he talks of her beauty and innocence, claims the moon envies Juliet, and her eyes shine brighter than the stars. Juliet also begins to speak her thoughts, not knowing Romeo is listening. She expresses her love for him as well, and wishes he would change or let go of his name (his family) so that the two of them can be together. As we can see, their soliloquies are romantic, and end up creating more intimacy between the characters. After hearing Juliet's thoughts, Romeo talks to her, saying his love for her is enough to make him face her family.

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day
