Portia's father, even though he is dead, has power over his daughter's choice of husband 'the will of a living daughter is curbed by the will of a dead father' (1, 2, 24). Do you think that parents alive or dead - should have any influence over their children's marriages? ​

Answer:

In Shakespeare's time a father would have every right to influence Portia's marriage. Marriages were often brokered deals between two families. In today's secular Western society women are given much more power over their own destinies. That sort of respect for women is a good thing.

Read the poem.

I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud
by William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.


How does the meaning of the last stanza relate to the meaning of the whole poem?


A. It summarizes the poem.


B. It tells readers that the speaker loves to be around happy people.


C. It connects the spirit of the speaker with that of the daffodils.


D. It describes a new scene in a natural setting.

COMPLETE THE SENTENCE
First, he ________ his hand in a _________ to make it _________ that he still had both hands.​

The expression was that of agony—the agony of intense bodily pain; but a menace scowled upon the brow, and a few sprinklings of blood added to its ghastliness. Yet it was not all these characteristics—it was some horror of the mind, some inscrutable antipathy awakened by this picture, which harrowed up my feelings.
