Read the following excerpts from Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis. Match the words in bold to their meanings. Gregor answered to

both sides: "I'm ready, now", making an effort to remove all the strangeness from his voice by enunciating very carefully and putting long pauses between each, individual word. His father went back to his breakfast, but his sister whispered: "Gregor, open the door, I beg of you." … This amazed him, as more than a month earlier he had cut his finger slightly with a knife, he thought of how his finger had still hurt the day before yesterday. "Am I less sensitive than I used to be, then?", he thought, and was already sucking greedily at the cheese which had immediately, almost compellingly, attracted him much more than the other foods on the newspaper.. … Had he really wanted to transform his room into a cave, a warm room fitted out with the nice furniture he had inherited? That would have let him crawl around unimpeded in any direction, but it would also have let him quickly forget his past when he had still been human. … It was not until it was getting dark that evening that Gregor awoke from his deep and coma-like sleep. He would have woken soon afterwards anyway even if he hadn't been disturbed, as he had had enough sleep and felt fully rested. But he had the impression that some hurried steps and the sound of the door leading into the front room being carefully shut had woken him. enunciating compellingly unimpeded coma-like

Hello!

I think you could have highlight the words, but, as I already worked on this, I will try to help u.

So we have these four words: 1. unimpeded 2. compellingly 3. enunclating & 4. coma- like.

And their respective meaning:

unimpeded: not obstructed or hindered

compellingly: with a lot of force

enunclating: pronouncing words or sentences very clearly

coma- like: nearly unconscious

Hope this helps!

What causes Macbeth to realize that he has been misled by the prophecies? Choose two options.
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

c. the revelation of how Macduff was born

d. the news that soldiers carrying boughs from Birnam Wood are approaching

Explanation:

Shakespeare's famous play, <em>Macbeth</em>, is a story about the Scottish general,  his attempt to become a king and preserve the position. Macbeth is told by the three witches that no man born of woman will be able to harm him, as well as that he is safe until Birnam wood starts moving. Macbeth believes in what they say, ensured that his position as a king could not be compromised. However, towards the end of the play, Malcolm and his army are approaching the castle, camouflaged with the trees from the forest, and Macbeth realizes that he has been misled by the witches' prophecy. This becomes even more clear on the battlefield, when he finds out that Macduff was born by Caesarean section - he was not, in fact, "of woman born."

Write a compare-and-contrast analysis of how culture shapes the heroes in Heart of a Samurai and Black Ships Before Troy.
aliina [53]

Answer:

The culture in "Black Ships Before Troy" caused a hero to be seen as a traitor, while in "Heart of a Samurai" the culture almost prevented a hero from appearing.

Explanation:

"Black Ships Before Troy" presents a people with a culture very based on religion, where they believed that all the events that happened were due to the action of the gods. Good events were because the gods were happy, while bad events were caused by the wrath of the gods. In this case, when a hero tried to stop the horse sent to Troy and ended up dying before completing his mission, he was seen as a traitor who was rebuked by the gods.

In contrast, "Heart of a Samurai" shows how a boy who dreamed of being a samurai was prevented because his family was made up of fishermen and the culture said that young people should follow their parents' tragedy.
