Duncan (the King of Scotland), his two sons (Malcolm and Donalbain), and Lennox (a Scottish nobleman) hang out with their attendants at a military camp in Scotland.
Lost? Check out this nifty map of major locations in the play.
King Duncan's forces have been busy fighting against the King of Norway and the traitor, Macdonwald.
A wounded Captain arrives, fresh from the field, where he fought to help Duncan's son, Malcolm, escape capture. What's the news?
Well, says the Captain, the battle was going south fast until brave Macbeth fought through the "swarm" of enemy soldiers and disemboweled the traitorous Macdonwald.
There's some gab about Macbeth's great courage in the face of seemingly impossible adversity and the Captain continues his story: after Macbeth spilled Macdonwald's guts all over the ground, the battle flared up again when the "Norwegian Lord" brought new men to the field, but even this didn't daunt Macbeth and Banquo, who just redoubled their efforts.
Oh, but could someone get the Captain a surgeon? He's kind of bleeding all over the place.
The Thane of Ross arrives from another battle, where Macbeth was also kicking serious butt. Sweno, Norway's king, is not allowed to bury his men until he hands over ten thousand dollars to the Scots.
Duncan then proclaims the traitorous Thane of Cawdor will be executed, and Macbeth, responsible for the victory, shall have his title.
Ross is sent to announce the news to Macbeth.

According to this excerpt, the two brothers represent C. good and evil.
As you can see in this passage, the right-handed twin represents good - he lives in heaven, and watches over men, providing them with the help they need. On the other hand, we have the left-handed twin, who represents evil - he lives among men, and rejoices when he sees warfare and suffering.

‘Nowadays there should be no differences in the ways that boys and girls are raised
uysha [10]

Answer:

While I don’t believe this should be debate in a school setting (no matter the grade) because this is a serious thing for most people, I think that they should be taught and raised the same.

       Evry child, boy or girl,should have the same resources and upbringing asone another. I get that there are some sensitive topics that are reserved for one one rather than the other however, teaching these things to both can reduce insensitivity toward the other. If they understand it better they won’t make fun of it as much. This is similar to the Dunning-Kruger effect. People who have less ability at something only judge others rather than themselves. For example, only girls learning about certain hygiene and other facts are helpful and can make then feel more comfortable talking about it. However, boys make fun of/teasse girls when they go throught those things often because they dont go throught it or dont understand it.

      Some kids can’t have the same upbring based on their parents or other causes, may it be economic or domestic, however in public (places like schools or daycares) we should still teach the same values. Every kid should know right from wrong, to be kind and helpful and how to properly express themselves.

AHH I'm sorry I forgot I had an appointment. This is 213 words, I didn't have time to proofread as I went. Hope this helps at the very least!
