Literature is generally used in English Language Teaching (ELT) for the development of knowledge about the language. It helps the learners to get familiar with the socio-political backgrounds of target language society and also makes them understand how communication takes place in a particular community.
Bertilaks Wife attempts to seduce Gawain on a daily
basis during his stay at the castle... I suppose she would be considered a temptress.
Answer:
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
It is important to state that the original opening scene from Hamlet does not contain the "stage directions" included in this excerpt ("Elsinore, a platform before the castle"); and what is more, there is no explicit allusion to a place before the action actually starts.
Having said that, the correct answer is A because Bernardo asks <em>"Who's there?</em>" and Fransisco returns <em>"Nay, answer me; stand, and unfold yourself"</em> (meaning, you tell me who you are and identify yourself). <u>This interaction can only be possible if it is very late at night, since the characters imply that they can's see each other by asking who is approaching.</u> Once they have identified themselves they talk about to things:
- "'Tis now struck twelve; get thee to bed, Fransisco"
="The clock says it's twelve, so go to bed" This is an explicit reference to the time in which this scene takes place, so now we can be certain that it is very late at night.
2. "it's bitter cold, and I am sick at heart"
= "It's very cold and I feel depressed" This is an explicit reference to the weather being cold.
when my best friend was using bad ways of coping, i was really worried about her, but I really needed to be honest with her. So, I talked to her about why this kind of thing is not good for her and that she might need to find some help. Now, she is in a much better place.
