This question is about "the crucible".
John Proctor is a complex and layered character. He is extremely important to the plot and is one of the main characters. Like any complex character, Proctor has positive and negative points that govern his entire plot.
Among Proctor's negative points we can mention his concern with the appearance and his status. This is because in order not to lose the fame of a correct man, of judgment and of goodness, Proctor allows Abigail to create a plot of lies that leads countless people to suffer and causes an extreme stasis in the city. As a positive point we can mention his ability to reflect and take the blame for his mistakes, even after a great deal of damage had been done.
This positive point made Proctor redeem himself at a certain point in the narrative when he assumes his dishonesty in a public confession and brings a little peace to the region, even if it means his end.
Proctor has a very strong connection with a philosophy called McCarthyism that was very influential in 1950. McCarthyism is characterized as a period in which it was common and even encouraged to accuse people who were considered traitors to the capitalist system. This is related to Proctor, because Abigail started a series of accusations, as a way to punish Proctor for his actions.
"insubordination in shirking his duties precipitated discipline comes Spitz"
Huh..a lot of big words. Well, I know that "insubordination" means someone lower then the person at the top is disobeying said order. So, e.g a frycook at McDonalds refuses to make his boss a Big Mac. "Shirking" means to avoid or get out of doing something, normally. So "shirking his duties" sounds like as if he got out of doing his work or he avoided doing something he's supposed to do. And "precipitated discipline" sounds like Spitz, the character in this sentence seems to mean that he decided to own up to himself and started to build up discipline, becoming an inversion of himself. I hope this helped!

The correct answer is C. Repetition of a phrase for emphasis
Explanation:
Kennedy's speech on June 26 of 1963 referred to the situation of Berlin during that time as this was divided into west and east. Moreover, the west side was supported by capitalist countries, while the east country was supported by the communist countries, especially the Soviet Union.
In terms of rhetoric, in this speech, Kennedy uses multiple times the phrase "Let them come to Berlin" to convey the idea communism is negative and has had negative effects on Berlin. For example, in "There are some who say that communism is the wave of future. Let them come to Berlin" the phrases emphasize communism is not a positive form of government, and has had negative effects in the city, which also suggests this situation should end. Thus, the correct answer is C.
Yes they should acknowledge
