Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 3, scene 2.

[BRUTUS.] If then that friend demand
why Brutus rose against Caesar, this is my answer:
not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved
Rome more. Had you rather Caesar were living, and
die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live
all free men? As Caesar loved me, I weep for him.
As he was fortunate, I rejoice at it. As he was
valiant, I honour him. But as he was ambitious, I
slew him.

Which paraphrase of the passage is the best?

He asks if the people would rather have Caesar alive, and die as slaves, or sadly have Caesar dead be free. He says he is sad because he and Caesar were friends. He honors Caesar’s bravery, but Caesar was too ambitious, so because of that dangerous ambition, Brutus had to take part in killing him.
Brutus asks the people of Rome if they would rather have Caesar alive and they all be slaves, or have Caesar dead so they can live freely.
Brutus explains that he loved Caesar but loves Rome more.
Brutus clarifies that he rose against Caesar not because he did not love Caesar, but because he loved Rome more. He asks, “Had you rather Caesar were living, and die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live all free men?”

The author supports the claim in Part A by stating that cities around the world are becoming "clones" of one another because they all have the same companies.

How well does this reason support the author's claim in Part A?


It is effective because it describes he benefits of visiting cities full of business people are familiar with.

It is irrelevant because does not explain how companies are changing the world's economy through globalization.

It logically explains how cultural identity is negatively impacted through the expansion of companies throughout the world.

It effectively shows how cultures and economies benefit from the introduction of new companies.

This sentence uses which figurative device?

Select one:

- Metonymy
- Synecdoche
- Metaphor
- Apostrophe

Answers

Answer:

Metonymy

Explanation:

The first thing I want to look at is the definition of each figurative device.

Metonymy - the substitution of the name of an attribute or adjunct for that of the thing meant, for example, suit for business executive, or the track for horse racing.

Synecdoche - a figure of speech in which a part is made to represent the whole or vice versa, as in Cleveland won by six runs (meaning “Cleveland's baseball team”).

Metaphor - a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.

Apostrophe - a speech or address to a person who is not present or to a personified object, such as Yorick's skull in Hamlet.

After looking at these definitions I have concluded that the correct option is metonymy referincing to "Crown" as being a replacement to the royal family or the king in either case.

Take a look at the picture. And tell what

Garvey and Edwin don't heap a lot of praise on Cole because the cabin represents Cole's life. By not telling him it's perfect and finished, they are telling him that Cole's healing hasn't finished.

In addition, this book also contains some of my favourite characters. The moment I read about Victor Krum’s entry, I was star struck. The aura and personality of that character described by Rowling are simply brilliant. Further, it made me become a greater fan of the series.

Write functions to compute a subset, find member, union, and intersection of sets. Follow the steps below:1. Read two integers from the user.2. Suppose one of the integers is 2311062158. The binary equivalent of this integer stored in a register will be 1000 1001 1100 0000 0000 0010 1000 1110. This data should be regarded as bit strings representing subsets of the set {1, 2, 32}. If the bit string has a 1 in position i, then element i is included in the subset. Therefore, the string: 1000 1001 1100 0000 0000 0010 1000 1110 corresponds to the set: {2, 3, 4, 8, 10, 23, 24, 25, 28, 32}.3. Print out members of the set from smaller to larger. You can do a loop from 1 to 32. Load a masking bit pattern that corresponded to the position number of the loop counter (0x00000001 for 1). Isolate the bit in the operand by using the AND operation. If the result of the AND is not 0 then the loop counter is in the set and should be displayed. Increment the counter and shift the masking bit pattern to the left.4. Read a number from the user. Determine if that element is a member of the given sets.5. Determine the union of two sets.6. Determine the intersection of two sets.7. Implement a loop back to the main function. See the prompts below: "Enter the first number:" "Enter the second number:" "Members of Set 1:" "Members of Set 2:" "Enter an element to find:" "It is a member/ not a member of set 1" "It is a member/ not a member of set 2" "Union of the sets:" "Intersection of the sets:" "Do you want to compute set functions again?"8.
