Since Shakespeare's plays involve a bit of traditional language and sophistication, the players often speak in free verse. This usually happens when speaking aloud or expressing passions and emotions. Hope this helped :))

Make an inference about Friar Laurence and Romeo’s relationship, and compare it to the nurse and Juliet’s relationship. Write th
Eva8 [605]
Hello! Friar Laurence cares a lot about Romeo just as the nurse cares a lot about Juliet. These relationships are similar because each of the main characters has at least one person who has tons of love for them. Another way they are similar is that both Friar Laurence and the nurse have knowledge in the field of medicine/healing.

Viktor [21]
Her flag aloft spread ruffling to the wind,
And sanguine streamers seem the flood to fire;
The weaver, charm'd with what his loom design'd,
<span>Goes on to sea, and knows not to retire.

Annus Mirabilis is in Latin and it means 'Year of Miracles'. The title alludes to noble events, despite London had faced a Great Fire and the plague, and England has fought in two battles. John Dryden believes that these events were performed by God and they have saved England from destruction. </span>

Study the cartoon Modern Window Shopping by Nate Beeler. What meaning is revealed through the use of an analogy in this cartoon?
Alina [70]

<em>Consumers are trading retail store shopping for online shopping.</em> This is the correct option.

The  three consumers are clicking on " different windows" on their mobile phones. They will not longer look at  real shop windows, therefore , they are window shopping virtually. They are doing this because they will probably buy things on line. They will not go to a retail shop; one of the customers has a newspaper showing the news that this type of shops are closing down. So, as there are more people buying on line, the retail shops will disappear. A new way of window shopping has arrived.

These options are not right:

-Consumers get their news online, not from newspapers. ( The focus is set on buying things from shops. It is not set on the origin of the news).

-Consumers have an increasing desire to acquire new things. ( The desire must have been always the same. Now, the focus is on the consumers' access to the new things they desire).

-Consumers have an increasing desire to acquire new things. ( The cartoon  has set the focus on a new way of shopping. The new way of shopping can be done through technology).
