Answer:

Macbeth's act of murdering Duncan, Banquo, and trying to kill Banquo's son make him a terrible king.

Some people remained loyal to Macbeth because they knew that after Duncan, Macbeth would be the next king, and they do not want to be disfavored in the eyes their king.

Explanation:

"Macbeth" is a tragic play penned by William Shakespeare.

Shakespeare has characterized the character of Macbeth which is driven by ambition and lust for power. In his pursuit of his ambition of becoming the King of Scotland, he make his sinister plans come real, by murdering King Duncan, to steal his throne. When the guards witnessed murder, he killed them too. And, when Macbeth became suspicious of Banquo he killed him as well. He actions of murdering and coveting the throne of Scotland made him a terrible king.

In the play, some people remained loyal to Macbeth, even after knowing his sinister actions such as Seyton. They remained loyal to Macbeth because they knew that he will be the next to be enthroned on Scotland's throne, and if they would become disloyal to him, their lives would also be in danger. They feared, that if, Macbeth can kill his dear friend Banquo for throne, than their lives can also be in danger if they would be disloyal to him.

Answer:

He was happy for being small sized.

Explanation:

The narrator of "Drummer Man" is small sized. Based on the excerpt we can infer that he was not much happy with his small size. It was only one of two times when he liked being small sized.

His regiment had to retreat from a war front, but their Captain was wounded and left between the lines. Someone had to go there and drag Captain back to safe place. It was not easy for other soldiers to do it owing to their large size. The narrator because of being small in size did the job with not much difficulty. So he was happy for his small size.

olasank [31]

Answer:

The teeter-totter was shared by the boys.

Explanation:

Passive voice is when the object of the sentence becomes the subject of the sentence. The subject of the sentence then receives the action instead of doing it. Passive voice always includes a form of the verb 'to be' and a particle of the main verb. In the case of the last sentence, the teeter-totter is the object/subject. "Was" is the past tense form of the verb "to be." Shared is the past particle of the verb "share."

So basically, the breakdown is like this:

The teeter-totter  +   was       +   shared by   +  the boys.

       object          past tense    past particle      subject

                            of the verb    of the verb

                               'to be'             'share'

All the other sentences are in active voice as the subject is doing the action. "Lilly took", "Little boy arrived", "The boy started playing" all have the subject in front of the verb.  

Hope this helps. :)
