Answer:

I disagree with the statement that "Crooks is NOT a victim of racism". This is because, the possession of books, furniture, and having his own room doesn't give him the freedom to mingle with the other ranch hands. Rather, they keep him alone so that he won't be among them, and they won't have to be near him.

Explanation:

Crooks is the black stable buck in John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men". He lives alone in the stable and not among the other ranch hands who stay in the bunkhouse.

The statement that "Crooks . . . is NOT a victim of racism" is not true. According to me, even with all the personal possessions (own room, furniture, and books), his living quarter is in the stable, with the animals and not with other human beings in the bunkhouse. His statement to Lennie <em>"I ain't wanted in the bunkhouse, and you ain't wanted in my room</em>" is evidence of how class/ race disparity is there even among the workers. He also added <em>"They play cards in there, but I can't play because I'm black. They say I stink."</em> This clearly shows the division among the workers, though they are all under Curley.

Therefore, it is <u>wrong to say that Crooks is NOT a victim of racism</u>.

Which of the following is a theme from Romeo and Juliet? (10 points)
viva [34]

Answer:

Using deception to get what you want is risky.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Ju liet" was and is still one of the most tragic yet romantic stories that present the theme of love. It presents the loyal and faithful love of the two lovebirds who chose love over their family's feud, choosing their happiness over that of the family's.

But despite the ever-enduring and powerful influence of love on a person, it also presents a fateful side of this type of love. While it was so romantic and powerful for Romeo and Ju liet to cling to their love and not let their family problem come in the way, they still did wrong in deceiving their families about the way they carried on with their love. And through their deceptive act of hiding their marriage and love from their respective families, their families (nonetheless unaware of the events) moved forward with their own plans. This ended tragically for both lovers, which is why deception is a risky and possibly wrong way of getting things done.

Thus, the <u>correct answer is the third option</u>.
