I'd have to go with D because Romeo and Juliet can't be together because their families hate each other. They are defined by their family names and if they go together one of them would share the family name of the other.

D. Family names played a major role in people’s lives. This can be inferred by Juliet who describes how she would renounce her title in order for her to be together with Romeo. ‘Tear the word’ reject her family name and leave it behind in the face of her desire to have a relation ship with Romeo.

50 POINTS!! In at least one hundred words, discuss how many of the same themes in Gordimer’s “1959: What is Apartheid?” are expr
natali 33 [55]

here you are hopefully this helps good luck : )

living in fear creates a prison of one’s own making, Avoiding and withdrawing from what we fear, and to live happily ever after.

In Nadine Gordimer´s "1959: what is Apartheid?"  she quotes "... If you want to know how Africans-black men and women-live in south African, you will get in return for your curiosity an exposition of apartheid in action, for in all of a black man´s life, all his life, rejection by the white man has the last word.

In Athol Fugard´s "Master Harold...and the boys" Hally, one of the characters said "the truth? I seem to be the only one around here who is prepared to face it . We´ve  had the pretty dream, it is time now to wake up and have a good long look at the way things really are".

In both works we can see the level of discrimination and inequality of the Apartheid in South Africa until the 1990´s during Nelson Mandela´s government.

What natural phenomena influenced Victor when he was young? What does this foreshadow? in frankenstein
Contact [7]

Answer:

The phenomenon that influenced Victor when he was younger was the moment when he witnessed a tree being struck by lightning. This part of the story serves as a foreshadow of how Victor's creation will come to life.

Explanation:

Foreshadowing is a literary technique where the author advances information that will be seen later in the story. This information is given in a non-literal, subliminal way, to make the reader curious and anxious about how the story will unfold with the influence of this information that was advanced.

An example of this can be seen in Frankenstein, when Victor witnesses a natural phenomenon that influences how Victor will bring his creature to life. In the book, when Victor was a child, he was able to witness the moment when lightning strikes a tree. At that moment Victor witnesses the great power that a ray has. This moment is an example of foreshadowing, as Victor remembers that moment and decides to use a lightning bolt to give life to his monster.
