Ya it's correct
All the underlined ones are correct
Its peak....................
1) The witches predictions foreshadow what might happen because they are predictions that are at the beginning of the play and in the middle too, so the tension is building up as to why the witches said them.
2) Macbeth's reactions to the first 3 predictions were no other than shocked and confused. The other 3 predictions, he didn't care because he thought he was unbeatable and nothing and nobody can stop him!! But his ambitions so go down hill as his ambitions take control over him. He is a 'brave solider' at the beginning of the play, but turns into a 'dangerous' criminal near the end of the play. Macbeth's ambitions are his biggest weakness of everything.
3) Lady Macbeth is a clever, but deep down she is cruel as her husband is. She influenced her husband to kill Duncan, even if Macbeth didn't want too. The term 'coward' was used to make Macbeth have the courage to kill Duncan. Also Lady Macbeth wanted to change from being a woman to being a man, 'Come to my woman's breast and take my milk for gall' and 'unsex me here' meaning she want to have the courage to kill Duncan. She wants man power because women were know as the 'weak' ones and Lady Macbeth wanted to be the strongest one.
4) I don't know about this one, but I have some ideas about some thought.
- Macbeth feels guilty, remorse, from killing Duncan. (He has a guilty conscience).
- He starts having hallucinations, especially after the death of Banquo. He hears voices after the murder of Duncan, 'Macbeth does murder sleep' and this creeps him out. And the dagger that leads him to the kings room.
- His kingship was bad to begin with.
- Macbeth's Fate and Free will change throughout the play.
I hope this helps as much as it will help me!!! I'm sorry if I didn't help with question 4, I didn't know that one, but I did the other 3!!

Ravi is a character in the short story "Games at Twilight", by Anita Desai. He and his siblings are playing hide-and-seek when he decides to hide in the shed where old furniture and broken things are kept. Ravi is excited about the idea of winning the game. He is motivated by picturing himself as a champion who got to win over older, smarter kids. After hiding for hours, he comes out and runs to the "den" to become the desperate winner of a game that had been long over. His siblings had forgotten about him.
Upon this awful realization, Ravi feels completely isolated. He is obviously a young child who is still insecure about his place in the world. That's why he is so desperate to win - to prove something to himself and others. But the fact that he was forgotten is utterly disappointing and hurtful. He does not feel included; he does not want to be included anymore:
<em>And the arc of thin arms trembled in the twilight, and the heads were bowed so sadly, and their feet tramped to that melancholy refrain so mournfully, so helplessly, that </em><u><em>Ravi could not bear it. He would not follow them, he would not be included in this funereal game. He had wanted victory and triumph—not a funeral. But he had been forgotten, left out, and he would not join them now. The ignominy of being forgotten—how could he face it? He felt his heart go heavy and ache inside him unbearably. He lay down full length on the damp grass, crushing his face into it, no longer crying, silenced by a terrible sense of his insignificance.</em></u>
Answer:
When young children go on a picnic without any adult I see this as a nightmare scenario.
Explanation:
School age is really young and vulnerable. This is age when human development takes place. When school boys are left unattended they can indulge in immoral activities. When schoolboys marooned on an island without any adult supervising them they can have opportunity to do whatever they can. They can fight with each other, harm each other or involve in immoral activities with one another or together. This is nightmare for any parent.
