In "My Last Duchess" by Robert Browning, the situation which brings the duke and the agent together is the duke's intention to remarry.
His wife died (or was killed, we will never know for sure), and he lost a lot of money, which is why he needs to marry into a rich family so as to regain what he lost. This is the reason why he met with the agent, so as to marry his cousin or something.
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
Fear of change is likely to be the reason for any resistance to change you experience. In most cases fear of change stops us from taking action. It often works with anxiety, self-doubt and guilt to help it to do this. Anxiety: Some stress can be good because it gets us to do something.
This question is incomplete. I have found the complete question online. Since the passage is the same, I will omit it:
. . . but Michael was just laughing at him.
What would be the BEST theme for this passage?
1. Everything always works out in the end.
2. Always treat people as kindly as you would like to be treated.
3. You should always carry extra money.
4. Be nice to everyone, they could end up being a good friend.
Answer:
The best theme for the passage is:
4. Be nice to everyone, they could end up being a good friend.
Explanation:
We may be tempted to choose theme number 2 but, after thoroughly reading the passage, we can tell number 4 is the best option. The lesson or moral of the story is not simply about being kind for its own sake. There is interest involved. According to the end of the story, you may need that person later, just like Caleb ended up needing Michael. Thus, it pays off to be kind to them just in case.
In fiction, a symbol can be described as : an object that stands for something other than itself
For example, in hunger games, mocking jay became the symbol of Revolution against the capitol
