English

5 0

Answer:

1. Marie had to cross the lake to get help for Gramps.

This decision is not really a good idea as it is dangerous to walk on the frozen lake.

2. They showed their love for each other by taking care of one another and also by their common love for the legend which Marie used to comfort her Gramps.

Explanation:

The short story <em>There Were Giants</em> by Roland Smith tells the story of how Marie had to spend the winter with her grandfather. The story also reveals the relationship between the two when her grandfather had an accident and she had to decide on an impulse on how to get help despite the dangers of the area.

1. Marie had to cross the lake to get to the Bensons to use their telephone so that she can call for help for her grandfather who had passed out in the snow.

The decision to walk across the frozen lake may not be  a good idea as the lake is not fully solid and the ice may break anytime which is dangerous for her to walk on.

2. Marie and Gramps show their love for each other by taking care of one another despite the dangers. Their love for the legend of the finger, and how they know how to comfort one another shows they cared deeply for each other despite not really admitting to it.

Despite centuries of tension, England and Scotland united under one monarchy when Scotland’s James VI became James I of England
bogdanovich [222]

Macbeth is considered by many a critic a Sakespeare's mature tragedy. The play contains a lot of supernatural elements and takes place in Scotland. Indeed, these traits do not appear by chance. It is well known that King James had a fascination for the obscure arts, there is even a book called "Daemonologie" written by the king himself.

The Scottish play, as it was called, begins with witchcraft. The lines where it is said that three "weyrd" sisters "All heil Macbeth, that shall be King hereafter!" (49, 50) reflects Shakespeare's intention to reverence his patron and his interest in the uncanny. It is of importance to mention that the word "weyrd" has its origin in the old English word for fate, which is one of the main themes and motifs in the play. Macbeth is to become king and face his destiny.

Macbeth's skepticism is present when we read in the words of Macbeth orders "Say from whence / You owe this intelligence? Or why / Upon this blasted heath you stop our way" (75-77). There was skepticism for what was to come with the new union. The term United Kingdom comes from there, from the alliance of the nations.

The play, with all its supernatural elements and references to withcraft and nobility, demonstrate respect and honor to the new king, who watched the theatrical representation of the tragedy and found the association to his interest in the dark arts presented in the Globe.

Which line uses an iambic meter?
Ahat [919]

Nature, the gentlest mother of all lines uses an iambic meter.

Option C. Nature, the gentlest mother of all.

Iambic is a poetic prosodic foot composed of two syllables. A non-strong syllable is followed by a strong syllable, pronounced duh-DUH. iambus can consist of a word with two syllables or two different words.

Iambic is his two-syllable poetry unit where the first syllable is not stressed and the second syllable is stressed. Words such as "reach," "express," and "explain" are all examples of strength patterns for non-strong and strong syllables.

If a pair of syllables is arranged such that a short note is followed by a long note or a non-bang followed by a strong pattern, the foot is said to be "weak".
