Answer: d. When he first enters the banquet hall, Macbeth appears cheerful.

Explanation: Subject-verb agreement means that the verb and the subject must agree in number, this means that if the subject is singular the verb needs to be also singular, and the same applies when the subject is plural. We must be careful with the final "s" in the verbs conjugated in the third person of singular (he, she, it). In the given sentences the option "a" is incorrect because the subject is "Lady Macbeth" (she) so the verb should be "walks", in the option "b" the correct it should say "Banquo, not Fleance, is killed" because the subject is singular (Banquo), the option "c" should be, "Fleance, without Banquo, escapes" (because the subject is Fleance), and the correct answer is "d" because it says "he first enters" and "Macbeth appears".

The correct answer is D. <span>When he first enters the banquet hall, Macbeth appears cheerful.
Subject-verb agreement means that the subject and the verb must agree in number - if the subject is singular, the verb has to be singular as well; if the subject is plural, the verb should also be plural.
A is incorrect because it should be 'walks,' B is incorrect because it should be 'is,' and C is incorrect because it should be 'escapes.' </span>

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Parents cannot control their child's decisions.  

Explanation:

"Bul_GO! -Gi" addresses the story of a mother who, despite being a very talented artist and wishes her son to follow in her footsteps, she does not impose anything on her. She doesn't require him to do the same as she does, but she respects the boy's individuality and allows him to make his own decisions about how he wants to run his own life. This creates a very good relationship between them, capable of making the child appreciate the mother's wishes.

Read the following passage to answer questions
7nadin3 [17]
1.   <span>A. strength

The simile that likens his shoulders to a full sail shows the force that must be exerted to plough the field. A "globed" sail would be rounded because of the powerful winds blowing against it. Just as the wind's, resistance is transformed into something useful by moving the boat forwards; his father's exertion transforms the land into fields that grow crops of food. While ploughing the land in this way would certainly require knowledge and skill, the simile does not refer to these qualities.

2. </span><span>D. "Mapping the furrow exactly" </span>

Reference to the father's expertise is indicated by his "mapping the furrow" and doing so "exactly."

Which excerpt from "Hills Like White Elephants" provides the most details about the main characters' lives outside the
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The excerpt that provides the most details about the main characters' lives outside the railway station is:

D. "He did not say anything but looked at the bags against the wall of the station. There were labels on them from all the hotels where  they had spent nights."

Explanation:

"Hills Like White Elephants" by Ernest Hemingway is a short story revolving around the conflict between the two main characters. <u>They are a couple - apparently, unmarried -, and she is pregnant. However, their lifestyle will be greatly affected if she has the child. They live an easy life, comprised mainly of traveling and drinking, as the excerpt reveals:</u>

<em><u>"He did not say anything but looked at the bags against the wall of the station. There were labels on them from all the hotels where  they had spent nights."</u></em>

<u>The passage above reveals they travel a lot in each other's company. We do not know much about their lives besides that revelation - what their professions are, why they have the means to travel so much, etc.</u>

She is tired of such a life. She sees it as meaningless, pointless. He, on the other hand, does not want to be disturbed or concerned by the existence of a child. He defends the idea that they are happy the way they are, and that nothing should change.
