Answer: It is immoral to stoop to the level of a murderer and a potentially sociopathic murderer at that. It won't teach them a lesson, it's not like they will have a chance to ever again have the chance to lead a normal life in the outside world. The principle of lex talionis is just a cruel ending to a demented life.

Benvolio: At this same ancient feast of Capulet’s, 70 Sups the fair Rosaline, whom thou so lov’st, With all the admired beauties
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Benvolio is a comic figure in this excerpt because he makes light of Romeo's heartache.

Explanation:

The romantic comedy play "Romeo and Ju liet" by William Shakespeare revolves around the forbidden/ illegal love of the two young lovers Romeo from the Montague family and Ju liet from the Capulet family. And due to their age-old family feud, they were led to their deaths, choosing love rather than a break-up.

In the given excerpt from Benvolio's speech from Act I scene ii, we see Benvolio making fun of his cousin's heartbreak. Romeo was lovesick with Rosalind and wanted no one else. At this, Benvolio told him they'll go to the Capulet's party and see that the other ladies were more beautiful than his Rosalind, proving that <em>"the swan" </em>is actually a <em>"crow"</em>. This is a comic scene where he made fun of Romeo's heartache.

Read this sentence from "President Richard M. Nixon: Re-election, Second Term, and Watergate."
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

C: Confessions.

Explanation:

Synonyms are words that have the same meaning despite the difference in their words or spellings. Synonyms are, in a way, the different ways by which things are expressed through the use of different words but still contain or express the same meaning.

In the given sentence, the term "revelations" is used to refer to the things said in the Watergate tapes. This word "revelation" is synonymous with disclosures, thereby making them all synonymous with the word "confession".

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
