For the first question the best quote emphasising the power of his music would be “His songs were so sad that no human could bear to listen to them”. As in they moved people to the point it hurt them to listen, because his music was that powerful. The first and second answer choice are just saying he’s skilled but not necessarily that it’s powerful and then the last answer choice isn’t saying anything about the music just that he was singing.
The other one I’m not as sure of but I believe it would be showing the strength of his love for his wife, it could be the second one but I would say it wasn’t. The last answer choice is to literal and it can’t be comparing his life to a life without his wife’s love because it isn’t a simile or a metaphor which are for comparisons.
The sunrise is quick and unexpected. Because it is so easy, I would suggest you try to answer this yourself. :)
The verb "looks" would be in this case a linking verb, since it is helping the reader understand the point of view of the observer. The weather itself is of course not "looking" anywhere.
In lines 29-34 Shylock gives his reason.
"Yes, to smell pork; to eat of the habitation which your prophet, the Nazarrite, conjured the devil onto! I will buy with you, sell with you talk with you, walk with you and so following; but I will not eat with you, nor pray with you."
Shylock's reasons are to do with his own religious beliefs.
Answer:
- Ben has not committed an assault or a battery because he acted in self defense.
Explanation:
As per the question, the statement that illustrates a true claim regarding the given situation is that Ben has neither committed an assault or battery as whatever he did(shoving Mike) was just an action in self-defense to protect himself from Mike's blow. It was Mike who attempts to strike Ben at first while the latter was just attempting to safeguard himself from his blow. Therefore, Ben's actions could not be considered either an offense/assault or battery as he acted in Self-defense and not intentionally.
