Summarization of act 1 scene 1-3 in “As You Like It”

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Rosalind is depressed over the banishment of her father, Duke Senior. Her cousin, Celia, attempts to cheer her up. Celia promises that as the sole heir of the usurping Duke Frederick, she will give the throne to Rosalind upon his death. In gratitude, Rosalind promises to be less melancholy, and the two women wittily discuss the roles of “Fortune” and “Nature” in determining the circumstances of one’s life (I.ii.26–47). They are interrupted by the court jester, Touchstone, who mockingly tells of a knight without honor who still swore by it. Le Beau, a dapper young courtier, also arrives and intrigues them with the promise of a wrestling match featuring the phenomenal strength and skill of the wrestler Charles.

The match’s participants enter with many members of the court, including Duke Frederick, who cordially greets Rosalind and Celia. The duke remarks on the danger Charles’s young challenger faces, and he suggests that the girls attempt to dissuade the present challenger from his effort to defeat the wrestler. Rosalind and Celia agree and call to the young man, who turns out to be Orlando. Try as they might, they cannot sway him. He remains deaf to their pleas and speaks as if he has absolutely nothing to lose. Orlando and Charles wrestle, and Orlando quickly defeats his opponent. Amazed, Duke Frederick asks Orlando to reveal his identity. When Orlando responds that he is the youngest son of Sir Rowland de Bois, the duke laments that he wishes Orlando had been someone else’s son, admitting that he and Sir Rowland were enemies. Rosalind and Celia rush in to offer their congratulations, and Rosalind admits how deeply her father admired Orlando’s father. In the exchange, Orlando and Rosalind become mutually smitten, though both are too tongue-tied to confess their feelings.

Indeed, it is this very freedom that Rosalind seeks as she departs for the Forest of Ardenne: “Now go we in content, / To liberty, and not to banishment” (I.iii.131–132). By christening herself Ganymede, Rosalind underscores the liberation that awaits her in the woods. Ganymede is the name of Jove’s beautiful young male page and lover, and the name is borrowed in other works of literature and applied to beautiful young homosexuals. But while the name links Rosalind to a long tradition of homosexuals in literature, it does not necessarily confine her to an exclusively homosexual identity. To view Rosalind as a lesbian who settles for a socially sanctifying marriage with Orlando, or to view Celia as her jilted lover, is to relegate both of them to the unpleasantly restrictive quarters of contemporary sexual politics. The Forest of Ardenne is big enough to embrace both homosexual and heterosexual desires—it allows for both, for all, rather than either/or.

Gives birth to twins: good and evil, explaining the eternal struggle between light and dark and between order and chaos

Answers

Hi. Although you have submitted a text, you have not submitted any questions related to it, which makes it impossible for me to give you an answer. However, I will try and help by showing you what this text means.

The text presented is part of an Iroquois legend about the formation of the world. According to the Iroquois, the daughter of the goddess Sky Woman gives birth to two twins. One of these twins was responsible for goodness and light and therefore, created all the good things we know about planet earth, such as nature, animals and other good elements. On the other hand, the other twin was responsible for representing evil and created the bad elements of the earth such as plagues and diseases that harm living beings. The two brothers try all the time to fight each other's creations and that's why there is an eternal struggle between light and darkness, order and chaos.

On the night before Dill returns to Meridian, Dill and Jem make a plan to do something at night. What is it that they plan to do? to kill a mockingbird

Answers

Answer:

Dill and Jem wanted to sneak up to the Radley house and see if they can have a view of Boo Radley's face.

Explanation:

The classic novel "To Kill A Mockingbird" by Harper Lee revolves around the story of the Finches who reside in the Alabama town of Maycomb. The novel deals with themes of growing up, family, good vs. evil, racism, innocence, education, etc.

In chapter 6, the last night of Dill's stay, Jem and Dill decided to go "on a walk", accompanied by Scout. But it wasn't a simple walk, like Scout revealed, "Nobody in Maycomb just went for a walk." It was some lines later that we got to know the real reason for their 'walk'. They were "going to peep in the window with the  loose shutter to see if they could get a look at Boo Radley."

This was the real reason for the walk.

Which sentence uses the semicolon correctly? A. That plant will never make it; it hasn't been watered in months. B. That plant will never make it; lack of water. C. That plant will never make it; hasn't been watered in months.

Answers

Answer:

The sentence that uses the semicolon correctly is:

A. That plant will never make it; it hasn't been watered in months.

Explanation:

An independent clause has a subject and a predicate, and it is able to stand alone as a sentence because it conveys a complete thought.

A conjunction is a word used to connect different clauses in order to form one sentence.

When we join two independent clauses without using a conjunction, we should use a semicolon. That is why the first option is correct. The first clause is "That plant will never make it." The second one is "It hasn't been watered in months." We could have created a relationship of subordination between the clauses by adding the conjunction "because" between them. But, since we did not, we must use a semicolon.

That plant will never make it; it hasn't been watered in months.

We can eliminate option B because what comes after the semicolon is simply a fragment, not a clause. Letter C has a problem because the second clause is missing the subject. Thus, a semicolon makes it incorrect. It should be a comma instead.

Are people morally obligated to help the poor? minimum of 300 words please​

Answers

Yes, by giving them opportunities and guidance to help themselves. Not by giving them charity, which is often more harmful than withholding help.

People are poor for various reasons. It may be due to trauma or crisis impoverishing them (natural disasters, serious accidental injury, death of a bread winner in the family, serious illness, disability, birth of a child with significant special needs, etc.). It may be due to being born into poverty and deprived of opportunity. Or it may simply be due to making poor life choices. The last is probably the most common in developed countries, but it must be remembered - with compassion and empathy - that a person who makes bad choices may never have had the opportunity to learn how to make good choices. Also, sometimes there just aren’t any good choices available! It can be a case of bad, worse, or terrible!

We are all morally obliged to help those who suffer because of natural disaster or genuine crisis if we are able. We are morally obliged to help those who are deprived of fair opportunity. And to the extent that we are able, we should help those who make poor choices by offering guidance to understand the cause of their poverty and how to improve their situation. We are morally obliged to do what we can to ensure the poor have access to reasonable opportunities to lift themselves up. If they reject opportunities or guidance, however, our obligation ends. We are not obliged to bash heads against brick walls, and we are certainly not obliged to offer handouts to people who don’t make reasonable efforts to help themselves. Nor are we obliged to place ourselves or our loved ones at risk of becoming poor by extending help to others.

While helping needy countries is admirable, it is not required. Many contend that it is morally required of inhabitants of wealthy countries to assist citizens of poor countries.

What are inhabitants?

Inhabitants are defined as one who frequently, routinely, or continuously resides in a given space. Behavior, appearance, social relations, or a discussion topic are all examples of social inhibition. Social assessment worries, social anxiety, social avoidance, and withdrawal are related processes that address social inhibition.

It has been asserted, everyone has a moral duty to stop harm from happening when doing so wouldn't put oneself in danger. It is obvious that starving causes suffering and death. It is also obvious that small financial sacrifices made by citizens of wealthy countries can stop a great deal of hunger-related pain and death.

Thus, while helping needy countries is admirable, it is not required. Many contend that it is morally required of inhabitants of wealthy countries to assist citizens of poor countries.
