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.”

Which sentence has the correct subject-verb agreement?
slava [35]
I would most definitely say the first one "does anyone hear the thunder?"
mostly because the other one does not make any sense at all it sounds ghetto "do anyone hear the thunder?" do you see the difference between does and do? so the first choice is the better choice.
i really hope i helped you out in some type of way :)))

Please help me!!<br><br>How does Via convinced Auggie to return to school? (Wonder)​
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

She explains to him that he has an upper hand in the situation (knowing that Jack was saying bad things about him). She then tells him that if he refuses to go back to school on his own, she'll tell their parents who will tell the school principle and that everyone will start treating him like a freak that needs to go to a special needs school. That is ultimately what makes up his mind to go back.
