Answer:
The name Proctor means steward, or charged with the care of something. In The Crucible, John Proctor embodies the fullness of the promise of God's graciousness and forgiveness. He is a sinner, one who has repented and asked for God's mercy.
In Act 1, Scene 7 Macbeth is alone, speaking his thoughts out loud; this is called a soliloquy.

a reason to be thankful.
The other answers state facts or describe a situation without judging or expressing emotion.
