Answer:

The answer is indeed C) The soliloquies create a romantic, intimate mood

Explanation:

A soliloquy takes place when characters speak their thoughts out loud, usually believing they are alone and, therefore, not being heard. In the famous Shakespearean tragedy "Romeo and Juliet", those very characters fall in love with each other even though they come from rival families.

In Act II, scene II, Romeo begins to speak to himself as he sees Juliet up in a balcony. His soliloquy expresses how romantic his feelings are toward her; he talks of her beauty and innocence, claims the moon envies Juliet, and her eyes shine brighter than the stars. Juliet also begins to speak her thoughts, not knowing Romeo is listening. She expresses her love for him as well, and wishes he would change or let go of his name (his family) so that the two of them can be together. As we can see, their soliloquies are romantic, and end up creating more intimacy between the characters. After hearing Juliet's thoughts, Romeo talks to her, saying his love for her is enough to make him face her family.

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day

MWhich story premise contains the most conflict?
Yuri [45]

Answer:

B. Fry and Ria's friendship is compromised when Fry discovers Ria's political views.

Explanation:

A conflict is when there are opposing or contrasting points of view or interests. This conflict can be between two or more characters or things. And this conflict of interest can either be internal or external, depending on the mannerism of the event or situation or characters.

Among the given sentences, the <u>most conflict can be seen in sentence B</u>. This sentence contains two characters who are friends but came into conflict because of their contrasting political views. Thus, this is a<u> character vs. character conflict. </u>

Sentence A contains no conflict as the audience laughs along with the comedian's joke.

Sentence C contains a conflict between the principal and his own opinion, which is not much of a conflict.

Sentence D contains a character Min Reed who doesn't put up with nonsense. This can be a conflict too but it within the character only and doesn't pose much of a conflict as compared to sentence B.

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

Read "The Workers of Ellis Island"; and look at the photo. Three men standing behind a seated man. The first man is wearing all
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

<u>The man who is sitting recently received medical attention.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Interestingly, based on the description of the photo, we could get some measure of detail about the surroundings.

Remember, we observe that the three men were standing not sitting behind the other man; meaning they likely have enough/more strength to stand. So, it seems most likely to say that the man who is sitting recently received medical attention, that's why he sits to rest and regain his strength.
