Julius Caesar , act 3 , scene 2 which conclusion does this excerpt best support
Answer:
The correct answer is “Antony wants to make the people angry by defending Caesar.”
Explanation:
Indeed, although he uses irony over repetition of the term “honorable” to describe Brutus and his accomplices, both the context and the excessive repetition indicate that the opposite effect is intended. Also, he cleverly uses an axiom (self-evident truth that requires no proof) when he says that people remember the evil deeds of a person after his death and that whatever good they did fades from memory.
However, again, he is seeking for the opposite emotional response as he knows that the plebs only remember good things about Caesar, which inevitably means that they will do the exact opposite of what the axiom states: they will remember his good deeds towards them and hate those who murdered him. Then he provides factual evidence of Caesar’s good deeds such as the “filling up of the general coffers” and his rejection of the crown when it was offered to him. He aims to provoke an uprising by using rhetoric to get the people to act instead of a frontal attack on Brutus and his accomplices who are still too powerful.

Which best describes the author’s purpose in including this anecdote for Black Boy
Answer:
- To clarify Wright's father's attitude, personality, and values.
Explanation:
The most appropriate description of the author's purpose behind including the anecdote i.e. 'finally I heard.....from him' in Black Boy is that the author wishes 'to clarify Wright's father's attitude, personality, and values' to the readers. This assists the author to reveal to the readers that Wright's father was an irresponsible and reckless man with no values who had left his mother deserted to 'raise the children and forcefully tries to get physical with her.' It gives the readers a perspective about his father's imprudent character and understand the difficulties faced by his mother(staying hungry but still working to raise the children alone).

Need help ASAP !! Give your intended audience some idea of what to expect choose a situation or problem that the play will discuss your problems can be something you've observed in your own daily life or in events of your time
Answer:
There are certain crucial points in our lives wherein we have to take decisions based on our own discretion and choice.
However, if one is not allowed to decide on one’s own, then it may come out to be a turning point in one’s life negatively.
Such problems usually arise in the lives of teenagers when they are not allowed to opt for their streams of subject and their careers voluntarily.
It is important for a child to realize interest areas and decide accordingly. Parents’ guidance is necessary in their decision but parents need to check whether it is a guidance or a force.
I wanted to learn guitar since childhood. My parents were against it as they thought it would take a toll on my studies. Yet, I managed to make my point clear and ended up learning music. I am happy and self-motivated.
On the other hand, one thing I would like to change is the coming to boarding school. I and my parents thought it would teach me to be self dependent and to be confident. But now I think I am bereft of my parents’ guidance. At this age, I could have lived an altogether a different kind of a life.

Answer:
Hester exits the jail with her infant.
Hester endures scorn while standing on the scaffold.
Explanation:
Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter tells the story of an adulterous woman named Hester Prynne and the punishment inflicted on her and her 'fatherless' baby. The whole plot of the story deals with punishment and the sin that led to her 'humiliating' treatment and the sin that led to all these.

The women think that it is wrong to release such type of woman, for then she will bring a bad name to all and also might even relay the message that adultery is not a sin in the Puritanical society. She also endures the scornful look of those gathered, while also showing to the world the "the letter A [which] was so artistically done".
Answer:
