List at least THREE ways Macduff and Macbeth are the same. List at least THREE ways they are opposites. Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

Maduff and Macbeth

Similarities

1. They are both vengeful.

Macbeth plots revenge for Macduff because he refuses to be loyal to him, and in the process, he murders his family.

Macduff after he learns of the brutal murder of his family, begins to plot his revenge against Macbeth.

2. They both have tunnel vision.

Macbeth is so singularly focused on becoming King that nothing else matters, he is blinded by the truth and believes the witches' prophecy implicitly.

Macduff is so blinded by his rage and quest for revenge against Macbeth that he is blinded to so many dangers.

3. They are both Lords of Scotland

Macduff and Macbeth are both Lords of Scotland. Macbeth is the honorable Thane of Glamis, Macduff is also a Thane of Fife.

Differences

1. Macduff is a loyal and honorable man, Macbeth is not.

Macduff is said to be a noble man that is loyal to Duncan and refuses to believe Macbeth's claim that Duncan was murdered by his servants.

Macbeth is no noble man and loyal to nobody unless he stands to gain something from it. He is also portrayed as power hungry and brutal

2. Macduff put his country and people first, Macbeth put himself and his interests first.

Macduff is described as a virtuous and honorable man who always puts his country and people first in whatever decision he wanted to take. He was a people pleaser.

Macbeth wanted to be wealthy and powerful and would do anything to get it, including murder. He always thought of himself first.

3. Macbeth was impatient, Macduff was not

In Macbeth's mad quest for power, he was very impatient and because of this he did not think things through before doing them. His impatience showed when he put a lot of faith in the prophecy of the witches and was desperate to be king.

Macduff by contrast was very patient and bade his time while plotting how to stop Macbeth from being King and also taking revenge.

What do you mean by punctuation?

Punctuation is the use of white space, traditional signals, and specific typographical elements to help readers understand and interpret written material correctly, whether they are reading it silently or loudly.

"It is the practice, action, or system of adding points or other small marks into texts to facilitate understanding; segmentation of text into phrases, clauses, etc., by means of such marks," is another definition.

Punctuation in written English is essential for clarifying sentence meaning. For instance, the phrases "woman without her man is nothing" and "woman without her man is nothing," as well as "eats shoots and leaves" and "eats, shoots and leaves," have completely different meanings.

The earliest writing systems were either syllabic or logographic, such as Chinese and Mayan script, which do not always require punctuation, especially spacing.

This is because space does not always clearly show where one word ends and another begins because the full morpheme or word is often contained within a single symbol.

In the case of the outline presented, the main idea is how the research by Jane Goodall changed the understanding of society about chips. Also, this outline presents two supporting details that show two findings that change the complexity of chips behavior; one is how chips form complex groups and how they have complex emotions.

In your opinion, would any high school students in today's society find Transcendentallst bellefs relevant? Support your
answer with examples from "Self-Rellance". Answers should be at least 150 words.

Answers

In my opinion, I believe that many high school students in today's society would find Transcendentalist beliefs relevant for a variety of reasons, on of the most prevalent of those being the idea of nonconformity and standing up for your beliefs. In today's society, teenagers tend to feel as though they are treated unfairly, having too much expected of them yet still being treated like children who cannot think or act for themselves. Because of this, I believe that the Transcendentalist ideals would resonate greatly with the high school students in today's society. One of the nonconformist statements in "Self-Reliance," that I believe the high school students of today would find particularly inspiring is, "Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist. He who would gather immortal palms must not be hindered by the name of goodness, but must explore if it be goodness. Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind."

Select the correct text in the passage. Which sentence in this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence indicates that the colonists did not wish to remain hostile toward Great Britain in the future? In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

Answers

Answer:We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

In this sentence, the colonists make it clear that independence is a necessity. That a separation from Great Britain is necessary in order to gain independence. At the same time, it is acknowledged that a war for independence was necessary therefore it is said "Enemies in War". Nevertheless, the colonists state that the War for Independence would eventually end and there would be peace. The Declaration of Independence, therefore, shows that following the war the United States intended to be friends with Great Britain. This is evident through the phrase "in Peace Friends". Simultaneously, the colonists reveal that the intention of the war is to gain independence, not to be in an eternal conflict with Great Britain.
