Answer:

D. Protest

Explanation:

Protest is a form of democratic, public or private demonstration, which demonstrates discontent over something. People who protest against something are usually not in agreement or satisfied with certain attitude or action. When the word "protest" appears in a literary work, it provides a negative connotation of the word "assert" because it gives a sense of discomfort to the reader.

What statement best summarizes the argument the author makes in order to convince women to “adapt [themselves] to [their] husban
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

I would say the correct answer is D . Without her husband, a woman would lead a life of total misery.

Explanation:

In this passage, Jennings says that <u>both nature and "mankind" have made the man superior to his wife</u>. Some of his rights are "natural", others "acquired", but he has them all and his wife (obviously) none. It follows that a woman is utterly devastated if she chooses not to adapt and even submit to her husband.

This is not a general statement about avoidance of conflict. Nor is it about the man's social connections and influence - Jennings clearly thinks that man's power doesn't stem from social circumstances alone, but from nature too. It's not about women's education (or lack thereof) either. That part is not even mentioned.

Write a short essay exploring the character of Lady Macbeth and the influence she seems to have on her husband. Focus especially
Stella [2.4K]

The introduction of the Lady Macbeth in the play “Macbeth” highlights her ambitious nature that she possesses for her husband to achieve. Her actions reveal much about her steps and plans which she has pre-planned. She had the finest quality of being manipulative and influencing. In Act I Scene V she helps to plan the murder of King Dunken and motivat his husband to commit the dead. To give encouragement to Macbeth she herself went to kill King Dunken. Though she was unable to kill him as she found her father's image in sleeping Dunken. She also gave her full support to her husband in attaining the position. in Act I Scene VII when Macbeth wants to step backward from the idea of killing Dunken, she gives argument which helps him gain support in killing him. In the play she has been regarded as the “fourth witch.” the three witches' prophecies and the plans and encouragement of Lady Macbeth made Macbeth move forward with his wicked plans. At the end of the play, it is seen that she become mentally ill. Since she too played an important role in the murders, she became weak and intolerant of her own ills. She died of this illness for which she herself was the one responsible.
