These words are uttered by Macbeth after he hears of Lady Macbeth’s death, in Act 5, scene 5, lines 16–27. Given the great love between them, his response is oddly muted, but it segues quickly into a speech of such pessimism and despair—one of the most famous speeches in all of Shakespeare—that the audience realizes how completely his wife’s passing and the ruin of his power have undone Macbeth. His speech insists that there is no meaning or purpose in life. Rather, life “is a tale / Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, / Signifying nothing.” One can easily understand how, with his wife dead and armies marching against him, Macbeth succumbs to such pessimism. Yet, there is also a defensive and self-justifying quality to his words. If everything is meaningless, then Macbeth’s awful crimes are somehow made less awful, because, like everything else, they too “signify nothing.”

Answer:
Your answer would be that <em>consideration</em> is the zombie noun in the sentence above.
Explanation:
The sentence above contains a zombie noun, <em>consideration. </em>Zombie nouns, also called nominalizations, are nouns formed from verbs by adding a suffix. In this case, the verb from which the nominalization is derived from is <em>consider. </em>
When using the verb instead of the noun, you make your writing more powerful. If you replaced the nominalization with the verb, the sentence would be as follows: Our purchasing department will consider the RFP submitted by Powertex.
I looked through the choices, and from the first glance I could cancel out B. and C. Because those two have nothing to do with this kind of story. So now we are left with A. and B. A myth is a traditional story, especially one concerning the early history of a people or explaining some natural or social phenomenon, and typically involving supernatural beings or events. So you can't use that, so <em>the answer should be D. Hope that helped.</em>
Answer:
Most organizations have three management levels: first-level, middle-level, and top-level managers. These managers are classified according to a hierarchy of authority and perform different tasks. In many organizations, the number of managers in each level gives the organization a pyramid structure.
