Fate is a major theme of the play, and Romeo's words illustrate the theme of fate.

We know this from the play's prologue, where we are told that Romeo and Juliet are "star-crossed." in the prologue we are told that the  two were fated to fall in love and die. Thus, their fate is not only to love, but also to die.

Romeo, however, believes only that they were fated to love. That's why, when he finds Juliet "dead," he says that he "defies" the stars, or rejects fate. He believes that fate wants to keep them apart; in defying fate, he kills himself and will be with Juliet forever. (He does not stop to think that perhaps his death was "fated" too.)

8090 [49]

Answer:

Last summer, I was delighted to spend the vacation with my family in Italy. When we arrived at the majestic hotel where we would spend our holidays, you could tell from our faces that we were famished and exhausted. After taking a cold and relaxing shower, I joined my family at the dinning hall, to enjoy a sumptuous meal of Spaghetti Bolognaise. It was a mouth-watering dish, filled with different shapes, sizes, and colors of garnishing. It was a fantastic meal and I could tell that the rest of the crew also enjoyed it.

Explanation:

Descriptive adjectives such as the ones highlighted in bold above are used to describe and modify the nouns and pronouns used in a sentence. For example, in the third sentence, the noun Spaghetti Bolognaise was modified by the descriptive adjective, <em>sumptuous.</em>
