Read the excerpt from The Call of the Wild.

They saw him marching out of camp, but they did not see the instant and terrible transformation which took place as soon as he was within the secrecy of the forest. He no longer marched. At once he became a thing of the wild, stealing along softly, cat-footed, a passing shadow that appeared and disappeared among the shadows. He knew how to take advantage of every cover, to crawl on his belly like a snake, and like a snake to leap and strike. He could take a ptarmigan from its nest, kill a rabbit as it slept, and snap in mid air the little chipmunks fleeing a second too late for the trees. Fish, in open pools, were not too quick for him; nor were beaver, mending their dams, too wary. He killed to eat, not from wantonness; but he preferred to eat what he killed himself. So a lurking humor ran through his deeds, and it was his delight to steal upon the squirrels, and, when he all but had them, to let them go, chattering in mortal fear to the treetops.

Which theme does this passage illustrate?

A good leader is strong and intelligent and treats his followers well.
Only the strong survive in the wilderness.
The desire to fight for power is an instinct.

As well as in the modern story, we see how Arianne boasts a lot and even as she is singing, her bragging is what got in her way of winning. The elements used in both stories is how they were each bragging lots. Using these elements, it makes the modern story more realistic.

And you must learn to protect yourself with the pen, and not the gun. Then you can answer them, and I can tell you—and I don’t want to sound corny—but friends, the pen really is mightier than the sword.

Answers

Answer:

Repetition is a rhetorical device used between sentences 4-6.

Explanation:

In the three sentences the author repeats the phrase “you must” several times. This is done to emphasis his/her point and make his train of thought easier to process. This is also a persuasion technique used by many writers to convince readers that their belief(s) are the correct one.

In “All for a Paisa,” the ironsmith’s daughter helps the merchant’s son figure out the riddle of what he can buy that can be eaten, drank, gnawed, planted, and fed to a cow.

How does this scene contribute to the development of the theme that neither assistance from others nor personal experiences can teach wisdom to a fool?


It depicts a moment in which a smart character helps a fool, but the fool learns nothing.

It shows a time in which a wise character actually learns something from an apparently foolish one.

It reveals the selfishness of fools, who rely on others to solve their problems for them.

It captures the frustration and anger felt by people who help others and receive nothing in return.

Reread Lady Macbeth's second soliloquy (lines 38-54) in Act I, Scene v, of The
Tragedy of Macbeth. How would you describe her at this point in the play? Identify
examples of word choice that help convey that description.

Answers

Answer:

This speech sets the mood for the horrible events which will follow...namely the murder of Duncan, which leads to the murders and deaths of so many others.

It prepares the audience for what is to come, teaches them about Lady Macbeth's character and what she is capable of, and also informs the audience as to the type of person Macbeth is.  We know, for instance, from her speech, that he would not come up with the idea of murdering Duncan on his own and he certainly would not go through with this plan if she were not there to give him "courage".  

The speech also sets up the theme of gender roles--Lady Macbeth at the beginning is more of the pants-wearing character by her own character analysis than her husband who is, according to her, "too full of the milk of human kindness" to do anything against his beloved King.  

Setting these two up as strong vs. weak at the beginning makes for interesting comparisons later in the play when Lady Macbeth becomes weaker and more human...guilt-ridden and suicidal and when Macbeth begins planning murders without the help of his horrid wife.

Without that speech, the play would be a very different being.  It is essential to not only the plot but character development.

Explanation:

        This soliloquy illustrates Lady Macbeth's moral and physical degradation. She is no longer strong, safe, or capable of taking care of herself. It also conveys the shame she experiences as a result of the killing. She recounts the murder of Duncan first, then Macduff's wife, and finally Banquo in her speech.

What mood does Act 2 of Macbeth's soliloquy convey?

         Even though Macbeth is attempting to boost his confidence, the tone is one of fear. The picture conveys a menacing mood. Even though the tone is one of exhilaration and apprehension, Macbeth exudes terror with both his words and deeds.

     What mood does Act 2 Scene 2 of Macbeth convey?  The atmosphere darkens even further when Macbeth kills Duncan because of his guilt-induced paranoia. When Macbeth returns to his wife in Act 2, Scene 2, he doesn't appear triumphant; instead, he is horrified.

     What mood does Macbeth's soliloquy have? Shakespeare's Macbeth: I. 7.1–28 – Macbeth, a general who will soon become king, delivers this soliloquy. Given that he has only recently given the decision of killing the king serious thought, Macbeth is dubious if it is the wisest course of action.

       What impact does Lady Macbeth's solo speech in Act 1 Scene 5 have?    She berates herself for being feminine in the soliloquy, yelling "unsex me here," and pleading for the milk in her breasts to flagella converted into "gall" so she can kill Duncan herself. These statements illustrate Lady Macbeth's viewpoint that murder is the defining quality of a man.

(a) Analyze what the text says explicitly. In Act IScene ii, of The Tragedy of Macbeth, what are the characters' opinions of Macbeth? What events have led to those opinions? Cite strong and thorough textual evidence to support your response .

Answers

Answer:

when Macbeth receives the prediction that he will become thane of Cawdor and then it actually happens, his character changes from a nobleman to a villain (with the help of LM). his ambition is what leads him to killing Duncan and so when he was predicted to be king, he was desperate to be king faster. in your answer, NEVER forget to talk about his strong ambition for power

Explanation:

The characters involved in Act 1 Scene 2 of Macbeth are; Duncan, Malcolm, Sergeant, and Ross. In this text, the characters have the opinion that Macbeth is a courageous man who was worthy of honor. The captain described him thus;

For brave Macbeth (well he deserves that name),

Disdaining Fortune, with his brandished steel,

Which smoked with bloody execution,

The events that led to this conclusion are the betrayal by the Thane of Cawdor and the valiant display of power by Macbeth in the war against the Norwegian King. Thus, their nation won the battle.

Assisted by that most disloyal traitor,

The Thane of Cawdor, began a dismal conflict,

Till that Bellona’s bridegroom, lapped in proof,

Confronted him with self-comparisons,

Point against point, rebellious arm ’gainst arm,

Curbing his lavish spirit.

In act 1 scene 2 of Macbeth, there is a dialogue between King Duncan, his men, and the captain from the battlefield.

The captain brought the good news that Macbeth was victorious in leading the King's men against the Norwegians.

He killed Macdonald and fearlessly gained victory in the fight against the Norwegians. The King praised him for his bravery.

This was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. I found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. They appeared in old legel papers, in the travel logs of Marco Polo, and in the Bible. I saw that the Chinese calendar uses different animals each year. Dregons are included along with eleven red animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were taking about a creature the actually existed.
