In Wuthering Heights, what would have Cathy and Heathcliff's marriage been like if they had managed to marry?
kogti [31]

Answer and Explanation:

A marriage between Cathy and Heathcliff would have been explosive and unstable. Both characters are passionate in their attachment to each other. But passion, unlike real love, is not meant to build a relationship. It destroys, demands, imposes, prohibits, entices, etc. Passion is strong, that is for sure, but so are its disadvantages. Cathy, who grows up wealthy and spoiled, is used to mistreating Heathcliff instead of treating him with respect and expressing her feelings for him in a healthy way. Heathcliff, hurt, proud, and wild, ends up doing the same. He often displays behaviors that show he feels entitled to Cathy. If they were to marry, their relationship would most likely be based on jealousy, anger, and resentment.

Part b which detail from the text best supports the answerto part a , fourteen
jekas [21]

The detail that supports part A is the sentence that shows that without advertising, people would not have free access to television, magazines, newspapers, and internet content.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The text shows that advertising is something irritating, but essential for the proper functioning of the media.
  • That's because readers and viewers may see advertising as a problem, but it's through it that they have access to fun and important content.
  • This is because advertising provides the necessary funding for books, magazines, internet content, newspapers, and television to remain free to the public.
  • In this case, advertising can be a problem that encourages positive results.

Your question is incomplete as you have not shown part A that this question is related to.

However, from questions similar to yours, we can see that part A shows that the theme of the text is that some people find advertisements annoying, but they are the ones that provide the public with necessary services and information.
