Question

Can anybody help with some foreshdowing/Romeo and Juliet questions?

Answer 1

post the question

Answer 2

What can you infer from the line in bold?

JULIET
Tell me not, friar, that thou hear'st of this,
Unless thou tell me how I may prevent it:
If, in thy wisdom, thou canst give no help, (this is the bold line)
Do thou but call my resolution wise,
And with this knife I'll help it presently.
God join'd my heart and Romeo's, thou our hands;
And ere this hand, by thee to Romeo seal'd,
Shall be the label to another deed,
Or my true heart with treacherous revolt
Turn to another, this shall slay them both:
Therefore, out of thy long-experienced time,
Give me some present counsel, or, behold,
'Twixt my extremes and me this bloody knife
Shall play the umpire, arbitrating that
Which the commission of thy years and art
Could to no issue of true honour bring.
Be not so long to speak; I long to die,
If what thou speak'st speak not of remedy.

Answer 5

Answer 6

Answer 7

Okay, that's what I had, just wanted to check it.

Answer 8

What can you infer about Friar Laurence from the line in bold?

JULIET
I have a faint cold fear thrills through my veins,
That almost freezes up the heat of life:
I'll call them back again to comfort me:
Nurse! What should she do here?
My dismal scene I needs must act alone.
Come, vial.
What if this mixture do not work at all?
Shall I be married then to-morrow morning?
No, no: this shall forbid it: lie thou there.
What if it be a poison, which the friar
Subtly hath minister'd to have me dead,
Lest in this marriage he should be dishonour'd,
Because he married me before to Romeo?
I fear it is: and yet, methinks, it should not,
For he hath still been tried a holy man. (THIS IS THE BOLD LINE)
How if, when I am laid into the tomb,
I wake before the time that Romeo
Come to redeem me? there's a fearful point!
Shall I not, then, be stifled in the vault,
To whose foul mouth no healthsome air breathes in,
And there die strangled ere my Romeo comes?
Or, if I live, is it not very like,
The horrible conceit of death and night,
Together with the terror of the place,—
As in a vault, an ancient receptacle,
Where, for these many hundred years, the bones
Of all my buried ancestors are packed:
Where bloody Tybalt, yet but green in earth,
Lies festering in his shroud; where, as they say,
At some hours in the night spirits resort;—
Alack, alack, is it not like that I,
So early waking, what with loathsome smells,
And shrieks like mandrakes' torn out of the earth,
That living mortals, hearing them, run mad:—
O, if I wake, shall I not be distraught,
Environed with all these hideous fears?
And madly play with my forefather's joints?
And pluck the mangled Tybalt from his shroud?
And, in this rage, with some great kinsman's bone,
As with a club, dash out my desperate brains?
O, look! methinks I see my cousin's ghost
Seeking out Romeo, that did spit his body
Upon a rapier's point: stay, Tybalt, stay!
Romeo, I come! this do I drink to thee.

Friar Laurence is known to be a coward.
Friar Laurence is a trustworthy man.
Friar Laurence has killed people before.
Friar Laurence once served time in jail.

Answer 9

Friar Laurence is a trustworthy man.

Answer 10

Are you sure on all of this? I've done this quiz three times and got a 60 each time and this is my last chance and I really don't need to lower my 99% average in English.

Answer 11

oh my gosh what school are you in where you can take a quiz multiple times? wish we were allowed to do that in Connections Academy

Answer 12

Yes im sure

Answer 13

FLVS. Florida Virtual School.

Answer 14

I have a few more, if you're willing to keep helping me.

Answer 15

Sure

Answer 16

Which of the following questions should you ask to make an informed inference about what will happen next?

Who is my favorite character and why?
What has foreshadowing suggested so far?
Where can I go to learn more about this topic?
Why do the characters want what they want?

I put B but I want a second opinion.

Answer 17

Yeah B

Answer 18

Which of the following lines by Juliet foreshadows the end of the play?

JULIET
Tell me not, friar, that thou hear'st of this,
Unless thou tell me how I may prevent it:
If, in thy wisdom, thou canst give no help,
Do thou but call my resolution wise,
And with this knife I'll help it presently.
God join'd my heart and Romeo's, thou our hands;
And ere this hand, by thee to Romeo seal'd,
Shall be the label to another deed,
Or my true heart with treacherous revolt
Turn to another, this shall slay them both:
Therefore, out of thy long-experienced time,
Give me some present counsel, or, behold,
'Twixt my extremes and me this bloody knife
Shall play the umpire, arbitrating that
Which the commission of thy years and art
Could to no issue of true honour bring.
Be not so long to speak; I long to die,
If what thou speak'st speak not of remedy.

Tell me not, friar, that thou hear'st of this,
Be not so long to speak; I long to die,
Unless thou tell me how I may prevent it:
Do thou but call my resolution wise,

Pretty sure this one is B too.

Answer 19

B

Answer 20

Which of the following does foreshadowing not do?

Give audiences specific clues
Provide a summary of the story
Describe small hints about the end
Illustrate visual details extensively

I'm between B and D on this one.

Answer 21

Me too...

Answer 22

I think its D

Answer 23

Does foreshadowing provide a summary though? I don't think it does...
I tried seeing if foreshadowing illustrates, but I think more imagery techniques do that in a story/book.

Answer 24

I think it might be able to provide a summary, like if a story were about a girl unexpectantly getting in a car crash and it begins with something along the lines of "Your life can change all at once before you ever see it coming"
This is foreshadowing and a vague summary of whats to come

Answer 25

It would probably helped if I looked up what my lesson's definition of foreshadowing is, wouldn't it?

Answer 26

Yeah you should take a look at that

Answer 27

Well, my lesson says this "Foreshadowing is a hint or a clue, not a summary."

Answer 28

So, it looks like B is the right answer, according to that.

Answer 29

Well in that case I would go with B

Answer 30

What do context and inferences have in common?

You cannot tell the meaning of a word by how it is used.
You can decide how to write a story based on inferences.
You can infer the context of a story based on dictionary definitions.
You can use the context of a story to understand what is going on.

I've ruled out A and B here.

Answer 31

I'd go with D

Answer 32

What can you infer about Capulet from the following line?

CAPULET
For shame, bring Juliet forth; her lord is come.

He is not excited about the wedding.
He has changed his mind about Paris.
He is usually late to everything himself.
He does not like for Juliet to be late.

I did A and D before, they were both wrong.

Answer 33

I dont think it would be C and since both A and D were wrong, by process of elimination i would say B
do you happen to know which Act this line is from?

Answer 34

The entire quiz is on Act IV

Answer 35

yeah I'd go with B

Answer 36

Which of the following lines by Juliet foreshadows the end of the play?

JULIET
I have a faint cold fear thrills through my veins,
That almost freezes up the heat of life:
I'll call them back again to comfort me:

Lest in this marriage he should be dishonour'd,
Because he married me before to Romeo?
I fear it is: and yet, methinks, it should not,
For he hath still been tried a holy man.
How if, when I am laid into the tomb,
I wake before the time that Romeo
Come to redeem me? there's a fearful point!
Shall I not, then, be stifled in the vault,
To whose foul mouth no healthsome air breathes in,
And there die strangled ere my Romeo comes?

Nurse! What should she do here?
For he hath still been tried a holy man.
As with a club, dash out my desperate brains?
O, look! methinks I see my cousin's ghost

Pretty sure this is C.

Answer 37

How many more questions are there?

Answer 38

that's the last one

Answer 39

Yeah that one is C

Answer 40

Thank you for all of your help!!

Answer 41
