<h2><em>Every day when I was a kid I’d drop anything I was doing, no matter what it was—stealing wire, having a fistfight, siphoning gas—no matter what, and tear like a blue streak through the alleys, over fences, under porches, through secret shortcuts, to get home not a second too late for the magic time. My breath rattling in wheezy gasps, sweating profusely from my long cross-country run I’d sit glassy-eyed and expectant before our Crosley Notre Dame Cathedral model radio</em></h2><h2><u><em /></u></h2><h2><u><em>HOPE IT HELPS </em></u></h2><h2><u><em>THANK YOU </em></u></h2>

I have to write my own modern version of romeo and juliet. give me ideas plz

ololo11 [35]

Firstly, Juliet talks about fear very descriptively using a figure of speech called imagery. "..that almost freezes me to death..." is describing how much she fears about the dreaded events that are going to occur. Another example of describing fear is "A feeling of faint, cold fear pierces my veins..." is a sentence of how she is feeling the fear.

Secondly, she also talks about death, if she was tricked about the potion. "What if it's a poison that the Friar has cleverly given me to kill me..." is talking about the fear she is facing and also about concerns and curiosity of the sleeping potion if it is a poison to kill her. Another example is the sentences "...die strangled in my death..." is about the ways of dying. She also takes out a knife just in case the plan doesn't work and where she would kill herself because she would have to marry Paris instead of Romeo.

Lastly, Juliet describes the most in behaviors of hellish or evil acts or thoughts which comes to mind when she is thinking about the upcoming plan. "...at certain hours in the night, ghosts walk..." is talking about the death of Tybalt and about what happens when death comes. "...with the loathsome smells and shrieks like mandrakes torn out of the ground, which make living beings go mad when they hear them..." is a short paragraph like sentence which is describing horrors of evil thoughts that she will be facing if she fails this plan. It is also describing relatively similar to the images of hell.

In conclusion, Juliet's speech in line 15-60 of scene three of Romeo and Juliet describes many different subjects by type of figure of speech named imagery.

Which of these three do you think was a neighbour to the man who fell into the hand of robbers? Isn't he the one who had mercy on him?

The Samaritan was the one who helped the man. The Samaritan, yes he had mercy on the poor man even though they were perhaps from distinct regions and religions. If the man was from Jerusalem he was perhaps an Israelite an Israelites despised Samaritans due to their worship of many Gods. So, that the Samaritan took pity on this man was a leap of faith. After the man recovered he could have pretended that the Samaritan man never took care of him or that he never knew him in the first place.

1. What happened to the traveller when he was on his way to Jericho?

He got robbed, he fell into the hands of multiple robbers as the passage says “robbers” in plural. Then, “They stripped him of his clothes, beat him, and went away leaving him half-dead.”

2.What did the priest and the rich man do when they saw the half-dead traveller lying on the road?

Both went and walked the other side, they didn‘t help the poor man who was almost half-dead. The priest had a duty or obligation to the man because he was a priest. Supposedly he was to set an example for the community and those around him. He was to obey Gods laws to “help thou neighbor”. And, the rich man had the economic disposition to actually help the man, he just didn’t want to.

3.How did the Samaritan react when he saw the badly injured traveller?

He took pity on the man.

4. a. Why did the Samaritan give some money to the innkeeper?

So the innkeeper could take care of the man.

b. This shows he was kind, caring and generous. True or False? True

5.According to this story, can strangers be our neighbours?. Explain.

Yes, strangers can be our neighbors. The reason I state this is because strangers can help us in our time of need. Of course, strangers won’t help us move our couch to our new home. But, if we are being kidnapped and we scream for help and run, someone, a stranger can help us in our time of need. Also, strangers can help us with small tasks such as bringing our grocery to the car, etc.
