Macbeth’s second visit to the witches and the predictions he hears make him more cautious and thoughtful. more bold and cruel. more afraid of Lady Macbeth. more willing to kill Duncan. Of what duality does Lady Macduff become aware before she is murdered? that doing harm is “often laudable,” but doing good may be “the surest way to anger Macbeth” that doing harm is “often laudable,” but doing good may be “more laudable” that doing harm is “often laudable,” but doing good may
@Chineseboy15
The first question, Macbeth’s second visit to the witches and the predictions he hears make him more bold and cruel. Now let us discuss the answer.
What does Malcolm do to anger Macduff in Act IV? Malcolm seeks the aid of the English king. Malcolm criticizes Macbeth as a vile tyrant who must be overthrown. Malcolm organizes an army to invade Scotland. Malcolm says of himself that he will be as bad a ruler as Macbeth. Macduff’s reaction to the news of what has happened to his wife and children shows him to be cold and calculating. weak and bumbling. sensitive and caring. happy and cheerful. Lady Macbeth’s actions and disturbed sleep are evidence of her steadfast support of her husband. hopes of tricking the doctor and the gentlewoman. guilt and mental fragility. charismatic and regal personality.
First, do you remember the three predictions that Macbeth heard?
@maddrea_
And do you remember the attitude of Macbeth after he heard the predictions?
Macbeth will be the Thane of Cawdor, he will be King, and Banquo’s sons will be king but not Banquo. right?
This is the predictions that Macbeth heard from the witches the first time, not the second time.
After Macbeth killed Duncan and became king, he went to visit the witches again, and they called three ghosts for him. Each of the ghosts tell Macbeth a prediction. Do you know them now?
@maddrea_
Can you be a little quicker please, for it is very late in China now.
I can't remember what the predictions were. I read it a while ago and am just now taking the test...
Is it good to ask me while taking the test?
I'm doing a study guide before the test so I can prepare for it, these questions are just to help me remember what took place.
Oh, great.
The first apparition told Macbeth:"Beware Macduff, Beware the Thane of Fife."
The second apparition said:"Be bloody, bold, and resolute: laugh to scorn The power of man, for none of woman born Shall harm Macbeth."
The third one said:"Be lion-mettled, proud, and take no care Who chafes, who frets, or where conspirers are. Macbeth shall never vanquished be until Great Birnam Wood to high Dunsinane Hill Shall come against him."
Get it? @maddrea_
Oh okay, I remember that now.. These were the apparitions, I was thinking about the witches.
So you see, after heard the apparitions' predictions, Macbeth thought that he was invincible. So he became a tyrant.
Now do you understand the question and its answer?
It is too late in China, and I have to go to sleep now. I can help you tomorrow. What time will you online tomorrow?
@maddrea_
@maddrea_ ?
I will be online tomorrow at 12, American time. Thnak you for your help
Thank*
So what is your question today?
Oh, so your question is here: Lady Macbeth’s actions and disturbed sleep are evidence of her steadfast support of her husband. hopes of tricking the doctor and the gentlewoman. guilt and mental fragility. charismatic and regal personality.
Yes, I've answered the other questions, I just want to make sure it's correct..
Okay.
All right, wait a minute please.
No problem. I appreciate the help! :)
I think the answer is "guilt and mental fragility".
Ok, that's the answer I got too.
Just look what Lady Macbeth say: "What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our power to account"; "What, will these hands neer be clean"; "Here's the smell of the blood still. All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand." Obviously, they all connected with that murder.
I figured she felt immense guilt from the murder which causes her odd behavior..
I think you are right. She must been disturbed her crime.
Thank you for your help, I much more prepared for the test now!
This is my pleasure. You are welcome! And if you have any more questions after, don't forget to ask me.
