I used to have a teacher who said this as well. The best way to understand would be to show examples of how to specify such terms as “stuff” and “things”. For instance: “The birds have lots of stuff.” That was not clear because the reader does not know what the “stuff” is. Instead, the text could be changed to: “The birds have lots of feathers.” Now the reader knows what the stuff is because it has been replaced with a more specific word. If you go over multiple examples in your head, it will become easier to comprehend and you will get used to doing it.

Read these lines spoken by Mercutio In Act III, Scene 1 after Tybalt stabs him and answer the question.
navik [9.2K]

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read these lines spoken by Mercutio in Act III, Scene 1 after Tybalt stabs him and answer the question.

No, ‘tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church-door; but ‘tis enough, ‘twill serve: ask for me to-morrow, and you shall find me a grave man.

Of what are these lines an example?

A. allusion

B. pun

C. monologue

D. soliloquy

Answer:

These lines are an example of a:

B. pun

Explanation:

A pun is a joke that can use words that sound similar but have different meanings, or words that offer more than one possible meaning. When Mercutio says, "and you shall find me a grave man," he is making a pun out of the meanings of "grave". A grave man is a serious man, at least in most situations. In this case, he refers to grave as in "tomb", because he is about to die after being injured by Tybalt.
