Answer:
Had I but died an hour before this chance,
I had lived a blessèd time, for from this instant
There’s nothing serious in mortality.
All is but toys. Renown and grace is dead.
The wine of life is drawn, and the mere lees
Is left this vault to brag of.
Explanation:
William Shakespeare's Macbeth tells the story of how the main character Macbeth brought about his own downfall. With the constant pressuring from his wife Lady Macbeth and his own desire to be the most powerful, aided with the prophecy of the three witches, he did deeds that are even murderous to bring power to himself.
In Act II scene iii, we find the discovery of King Duncan's murder. Acting surprised and shock, Macbeth declares his grief at the death of his lord. He claimed "Had I but died an hour before this chance,/ I had lived a blessèd time". He went further to state that "Renown and grace is dead. / The wine of life is drawn, and the mere lees / Is left this vault to brag of." His statement of " from this instant / There’s nothing serious in mortality. / All is but toys" is a complete lie for from the death starts his own ascend to power, paving the way for his own growth to power.

Explanation:
George is writing about the ways a friendship can change over the years. He does not want to write about his own experiences. His audience includes people who like to read realistic literature. Which text genre would best suit George’s purpose?
informational text
memoir
argumentative essay
literary fiction
Answer:
I would say realistic fiction (even though that is not one of the choices), because although it is not about his experiences (which would be a memoir), it is a real situation that happens in real life. However, it is not completely fiction because it is realistic nor is it completely informational since it is George's opinion. And it is not argumentative since he is not persuading anyone to one side or the other. So, I would say informational text but it might be literary fiction.

According to Daladier, what differentiates Nazis from other armies who sought dominance
Answer:
Explanation:
Edouard Daladier, Premier of France, delivered this radio address to the people of France on January 29, 1940, after the Nazis had conquered Poland and just a few months before Hitler's armies attacked France.
At the end of five months of war one thing has become more and more clear. It is that Germany seeks to establish a domination over the world completely different from any known in history.
The domination at which the Nazis aim is not limited to the displacement of the balance of power and the imposition of supremacy of one nation. It seeks the systematic and total destruction of those conquered by Hitler, and it does not treaty with the nations which he has subdued. He destroys them. He takes from them their whole political and economic existence and seeks even to deprive them of their history and their culture. He wishes to consider them only as vital space and a vacant territory over which he has every right.
The human beings who constitute these nations are for him only cattle. He orders their massacre or their migration. He compels them to make room for their conquerors. He does not even take the trouble to impose any war tribute on them. He just takes all their wealth, and, to prevent any revolt, he wipes out their leaders and scientifically seeks the physical and moral degradation of those whose independence he has taken away.
Under this domination, in thousands of towns and villages in Europe there are millions of human beings now living in misery which, some months ago, they could never have imagined. Austria, Bohemia, Slovakia and Poland are only lands of despair. Their whole peoples have been deprived of the means of moral and material happiness. Subdued by treachery or brutal violence, they have no other recourse than to work for their executioners who grant them scarcely enough to assure the most miserable existence.
There is being created a world of masters and slaves in the image of Germany herself. For, while Germany is crushing beneath her tyranny the men of every race and language, she is herself being crushed beneath her own servitude and her domination mania. The German worker and peasant are the slaves of their Nazi masters while the worker and peasant of Bohemia and Poland have become in turn slaves of these slaves. Before this first realization of a mad dream, the whole world might shudder.
Nazi propaganda is entirely founded on the exploitation of the weakness of the human heart. It does not address itself to the strong or the heroic. It tells the rich they are going to lose their money. It tells the worker this is a rich man's war. It tells the intellectual and the artist that all he cherished is being destroyed by war. It tells the lover of good things that soon he would have none of them. It says to the Christian believer: "How can you accept this massacre?" It tells the adventurer - "a man like you should profit by the misfortunes of your country."
It is those who speak this way who have destroyed or confiscated all the wealth they could lay their hands on, who have reduced their workers to slavery, who have ruined all intellectual liberty, who have imposed terrible privations on millions of men and women and who have made murder their law. What do contradictions matter to them if they can lower the resistance of those who wish to bar the path of their ambitions to be masters of the world?
For us there is more to do than merely win the war. We shall win it, but we must also win a victory far greater than that of arms. In this world of masters and slaves, which those madmen who rule at Berlin are seeking to forge, we must also save liberty and human dignity.

Final answer:
Shakespeare's gesture of placing 'fingers on your lips' in Hamlet signifies the need for silence or secrecy, corresponding to Option B: Shhhhhhhh.
Explanation:
The gesture Shakespeare was trying to capture with the bolded section of text from Hamlet, "And still your fingers on your lips, I pray," is B. Shhhhhhhh. This gesture, indicated by Hamlet asking for fingers to be placed upon lips, is a universal signal for silence or secrecy. Hamlet is conveying the need for quiet and perhaps discretion as he speaks about the heavy responsibility of setting the time, which he believes is 'out of joint,' back to right. This moment reflects Hamlet's contemplation of the daunting task ahead and his desire for those around him to understand the seriousness of the moment without voicing it out loud.

How have third parties been important
in American history?
Final answer:
Third parties in American history have shaped political debate by representing overlooked societal groups and issues, acting as a safety valve in the political system, and influencing election outcomes by offering alternatives to the major parties.
Explanation:
Third parties have been significant in American history due to several crucial roles they play in the political landscape. By representing ignored groups and bringing attention to previously ignored issues, third parties can force the major parties to confront topics they might prefer to avoid. This has been beneficial in pushing forward social changes and policy shifts. Despite their low likelihood of winning office, third parties act as a safety valve for political discontent, allowing voters who are dissatisfied with the major parties to express their alternatives.
In addition, third parties can influence the outcomes of elections by affecting the vote distribution, which can lead to critical elections and realignment within the political system. Through these parties, voters have more choices beyond the traditional two-party system, which helps keep the major parties competitive and responsive to changes in voter preference. Third parties like the Libertarian, Reform, Green, and Constitution Party have placed emphasis on policy areas such as the environment and civil liberties, strengthening the democratic process by providing a platform for a wider range of voices.

Which of the gods was considered “king of the gods” DURING Akhenaton’s reign?
Answer:
God amun
Explanation:
During Akhenaten's reign in Ancient Egypt, the supreme deity was the sun god, Aten. Akhenaten's significant religious reforms established a monotheistic worship of Aten, marking the distinct Amarna Period. These changes were, however, reversed after his death, and Egypt returned to polytheism.
King of the Gods During Akhenaten's Reign
During the reign of Pharaoh Akhenaten in Ancient Egypt, the traditional polytheistic religion was displaced by a monotheistic worship of a singular deity. Akhenaten elevated the sun god, Aten, to the status of the supreme and only god. This sun god was associated with sunlight and considered the creator god responsible for all life. Temples dedicated to other gods, such as Amun, who was previously revered as the king of the gods in combination with Re as Amun-Re, were defaced and financial support was withdrawn from them. Instead, the Great Temple of Aten was built, with Akhenaten portraying himself as the son of Aten and thus the only individual capable of communicating with this sole deity.The period during which Aten was worshipped as the only god is known as the Amarna Period. Akhenaten's religious reforms were radical, shifting Egyptian society towards monotheism, but this change was short-lived. After Akhenaten's death, Egyptian religion reverted back to its polytheistic roots.

Describe a character that was different in the movie than the book in The Giver
In the movie adaptation of 'The Giver', Jonas's character is aged up from a 12-year-old to a teenager, introducing a romantic subplot with Fiona that is absent in the book.
Explanation:In the novel and film adaptation of The Giver, the character of Jonas is portrayed differently. In the book, Jonas is a 12-year-old boy but in the movie, he is depicted as a teenager. This change affects the character's perspective and maturity, altering how he interacts with others and faces the revelations about his society. For instance, the romantic subplot between Jonas and Fiona does not exist in the book, but it is a significant element in the movie, introducing additional emotional layers not present in the book's version of Jonas.

Final answer:
A writer or an artist cannot escape the major theme or idea in a myth if they recycle or reuse it because the theme is deeply rooted in the myth's narrative and symbolism. Therefore, when a writer or artist reuses a myth, they are bound to the major theme or idea.
Explanation:
A writer or an artist cannot completely escape the major theme or idea in a myth if they recycle or reuse it because the theme or idea is deeply rooted in the myth's narrative and symbolism. When an artist or writer reuses a myth, they are building upon the existing themes and ideas that are already present, and these themes and ideas are integral to the myth's meaning and message.
For example, if a writer retells the myth of Pandora's Box, they cannot escape the theme of curiosity and its consequences because that is the central idea of the myth. Even if the writer adds new elements or explores different aspects of the story, the theme of curiosity will still be present.
Therefore, when a writer or artist recycles or reuses a myth, they are bound to the major theme or idea because it is an inherent part of the myth's structure and meaning.
