Answer:

I believe the best answer to be letter C. Friar Laurence versus the unknown.

Explanation:

A conflict in literature is an element that involves the struggle between two opposing forces. Conflicts are what make a story interesting and they are always, directly or indirectly, connected to the main characters. There are several types of conflict, such as man versus self, man versus nature, and man versus technology.

In Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet", Friar Laurence sends out a letter to warn Romeo about Juliet's fake death. The letter is supposed to be delivered by Friar John, but he ends up quarantined due to the possibility of exposure to the plague. This conflict is a man versus the unknown one - when the character struggles with an unknown force or lack of certainty. There is no way for Friar Laurence to know what will happen to the letter after he hands it over to someone else. There is no certainty that it will ever be delivered; various circumstances may prevent it. He can only hope for the best, but there isn't much he can do to achieve the desired outcome. As we know, fate intervenes, and the letter doesn't reach Romeo in time.

How does a cartoon holding his exams result uses irony to create humour? any help pls
anastassius [24]
The scores on the paper the character is holding shows that he is smart, but he's about to walk off of the edge because he's wasn't watching where he was going, this implies that he is not making a smart choice by staring at his paper and walking without paying any attention to where he is going. So it's ironic because it shows that he's smart making a not so smart choice.
Hope this helps!!

How does the stranger's interaction with elisa at her garden differ from henry's interaction with her at her garden?
kodGreya [7K]
The stranger's interaction with Elisa at her garden is different from Henry's interaction with her at her garden. The stranger's interaction with Elisa was a bit awkward since they were not introduced formally and Elisa was a bit professional as she entertains the stranger. On the other hand, Elisa was comfortable with Henry since they have been friends for a while already.

write a 2-3 paragraph response: many characters in this play believe that fate control what happen to people but others believe
bixtya [17]

As I understand it, the three witches do not have any control over Macbeth's fate. What they can do is predict the future--and the future is unchangeable. As far as Macbeth controlling his own fate, that is impossible, although that is exactly what he tries to do. It was inevitable that he would murder Duncan. Shakespeare's message in this play is fatalistic. Whatever is going to happen to Macbeth--or to us--is already predetermined. I think this could be the good beginning for your response.  The rest can be done by the writers I trust. Check out the site Prime Writings.
