I would say the least likely purpose of descriptive writing would be to entertain readers since i think of description as being recounting how things are at the moment so could explain historical events or by describing a scene of devastation could call people to action, for example.

I think that the correct option is C: the role of the idiom in this sentence is to explain that bad habits are creating a bad financial situation.

An idiom may be defined as a figure of speech established by usage that has a meaning not necessarily deductible from those of the individual words. Idioms are not always meant to be taken literally.

In this case, the idiom is explaining the cause of financial situation.

Answer:

Macbeth feels that all his deeds were done for the sake of Banquo's descendants to be kings.

Explanation:

In Act III, Scene I, of "The Tragedy of Macbeth" by William Shakespeare, Macbeth says that although he is the King because he has murdered King Duncan, he is not safe. The witches told him and Banquo that Banquo's descendants would become kings. Macbeth has called two murderers to kill Banquo and his son Fleance to prevent what the witches told would happen. He says these words because he realizes that all he has done is for Banquo's seeds to be kings.
