Mr. Webb: Every man that's ever lived has felt that way about it, George; but it hasn't been any use. It's the womenfolk who've

built up weddings, my boy. For a while now the women have it all their own. A man looks pretty small at a wedding, George. All those good women standing shoulder to shoulder making sure that the knot's tied in a mighty public way.
...



Mr. Webb: Oh, yes; oh, yes. Don't you misunderstand me, my boy. Marriage is a wonderful thing; wonderful thing. And don't you forget that, George.

What are 2 different conflicts in the story “The Scarlet Ibis”
White raven [17]
The main conflict of "The Scarlet Ibis" by James Hurst is Brother's inability to deal with Doodle's disabilities: his concern more for himself than Doodle. When Doodle is born, Brother considers killing him because he is "not right." He was born when I was six and was, from the outset, a disappointment

Doodle and his brother helps show the theme of trying to meet the expectations of others and yourself can harm oneself. Additionally, Doodle struggles internally with his own expectations. He hopes to become more able for himself and others, but his body cannot keep up.

Which statement best compares the last remarks in the two monologues?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Brutus creates closure, whereas Antony stimulates anger.

Explanation:

The two monologues in question are from Act III scene ii of the play "The Tragedy Of Julius Caesar" by William Shakespeare. The two monologues are from the scene where Brutus had addressed the people after the death of Caesar and Antony had also came to view the body. He then addressed the people right after the exit of Brutus.

The last remarks of the two monologues are-

Brutus remarks that he wants the people to pay their respects to Caesar and told the, that Antony will address the people. After giving his leave, he exit and from there Antony began his speech.

Whereas, Antony's speech details the goodness and wholehearted sacrifice of Caesar for his people. The "over ambitious" nature that Brutus accused Caesar of, was what led him to be a great leader for his whole acts and aims was for the good of his people. He even mentioned that Caesar had written in his will that the people of Rome are to be his inheritors.

Thus, the two monologues that the two leaders gave after the death of Caesar are quite different in that, Brutus' monologue creates closure for everyone, not only himself. He accepts the death of Caesar and implores the people to do so too. But Antony's monologue rather stimulates anger in the people.

Answer:

c. In his left hand he held a sack, and his right hand held the arm of a boy in an iron grip.

Explanation:

Based on the excerpt from the story of Iqbal, we can easily know that the master was a cruel man just by the way he held the young boy's arm. The very word "an iron grip" gives a strong indication of someone holding onto something that wouldn't be let go easily. This sentence

In his left hand he held a sack, and his right hand held the arm of a boy in an iron grip

gives the character of Hussain, the master as someone who is cruel and representation of someone who was to be obeyed by the children.
