Explain how Romeo and Mercutio are foils for each other. What do you learn about the characters by seeing them in contrast to each other?
Answer and Explanation:
In literature, a character's foil is someone who is his opposite, who makes certain qualities of his more noticeable. In Shakespeare's tragedy "Romeo and Juliet," Romeo and his friend Mercutio are foils for each other.
Even though they are friends, their personalities could not be more distinct. Romeo is a helpless romantic. He believes in true love and in dreams. Romeo is the type of person who will stop eating, who will stay home alone, sulking, because the woman he likes does not like him back. Mercutio teases him for being like that. Mercutio does not have such a romantic view of love as Romeo. He has a more playful attitude toward it. He also thinks that dreams have no meaning, no importance. Mercutio is the type of person who lives in the present, who enjoys life, who does not allow feelings to overwhelm him.

The King’s Hawk
A Even the world’s greatest leaders sometimes learn things the hard way. Eight hundred years ago a powerful king named Genghis Khan ruled an empire that stretched from eastern Europe to the Sea of Japan and included all of China. His armies marched on China and Persia, and Khan was known as the greatest king since Alexander the Great.
B According to legend, one day Khan gathered some friends and servants and rode into the countryside to search for game. Everyone in the party had high hopes of bringing home enough meat for a great feast that night. In those days it was customary to bring a trained hawk along on hunting trips. On command, the hawk would leave its master’s wrist and fly high into the sky. Then, using its exceptional eyesight, the hawk would spot its prey and swoop down on it, so the hunters would know where to follow.
C On this trip the king had brought his favorite hawk. It was a hot summer day, and although the hunting party rode for hours, they had no luck finding game. At dusk they gave up and turned toward home. The king knew the area well, and while the hunting party took the fastest way home, the king rode off on his own between two large mountains, determined to have a successful hunt. In the valley, his hawk flew off.
D As the king rode farther, he became parched and started looking for a spring of water. His thirst was growing, but the hot summer had dried up all the brooks that usually ran by the path. Finally, he spotted a trickle of water running over the edge of a steep rock. Quickly, he jumped from his horse, taking a small silver cup from his bag. He held the cup under the trickle of water until there was enough to drink.
E However, as he raised the cup to his lips, there was a whooshing sound, and the cup was knocked from his hand to the ground. The king turned to see who could be responsible. Spotting his pet hawk, he wondered why the bird would do such a thing. Angrily, the king picked up the cup and again held it under the trickling water. This time he held the cup for just a few seconds before he began to raise it to his mouth. Just as the cup touched his lips, the hawk flew down again, rushed past the king, and again knocked the cup to the ground.
F The king was very angry now. Again he filled the cup, and again the hawk kept him from having even the smallest drink. “You awful bird!” the king shouted. “If you were near me I would kill you in an instant!” As the king filled the cup for the fourth time, he spoke to the hawk. “Now, you arrogant hawk, I warn you. If you value your life, let me drink.” As he spoke, he held his sword ready. Again the bird flew down, knocking the cup from the king’s hand; but this time, the king was ready. His sword flashed and the bird fell. The hawk dropped at his master’s feet and died quickly.
G “That will teach you,” said the king. Then Genghis Khan turned and looked for the cup, but it was nowhere to be found. “I will drink now anyway,” he said, and started climbing the steep rock toward the source of the water. It was a long climb, and the king’s thirst grew and grew.
H Finally, he reached the top and could see the water. As he walked closer, he could see something in the water. With one more step the king could see now that the huge thing was a dead snake, one of the most poisonous in his entire kingdom.
I Now, the king stopped walking. He forgot his thirst, and his heart ached as he thought dismally of the dead hawk he had left lying on the ground below. He dropped his head and said, “You were a true friend, Sir Hawk. You saved my life, and yet in anger I killed you. I will honor your memory and never forget the lesson you taught me.”

Hello~
The four freedoms Roosevelt discusses are: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want and freedom from fear. He argues that these are the freedoms that everyone in the world should enjoy. The main purpose of the speech (which was the 1941 State of the Union address) was to outline the responsibilities of the United States when it came to helping allies that were engaged in war.

The four freedoms Roosevelt discusses are: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want and freedom from fear.
What is freedom?
Freedom is understood as either having the ability to act or change without constraint or to possess the power and resources to fulfill one's purposes unhindered. Freedom is often associated with liberty and autonomy in the sense of "giving oneself one's own laws", and with having rights and the civil liberties with which to exercise them without undue interference by the state. Frequently discussed kinds of political freedom include freedom of assembly, freedom of association, freedom of choice, and freedom of speech.
In one definition, something is "free" if it can change easily and is not constrained in its present state. Philosophy and religion sometimes associate freedom with free will, without undue or unjust constraints on that will, such as enslavement. It is an idea closely tied with the concept of negative liberty.

How does "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" break away from traditional poetic conventions? Select all that apply
It incorporates many allusions to other texts
It distorts the traditional concept of a love song
It abandons the strict orderliness of the Victorian era
It emphasizes the search for meaning in a seemingly meaningless world
Answer:
It distorts the traditional concept of a love song.
It emphasizes the search for meaning in a seemingly meaningless world.
Explanation:
The poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" breaks away from traditional poetic conventions by distorting the traditional concept of a love song and emphasizing the search for meaning in a seemingly meaningless world.
This poem is a sad and melancholic poem which questions love and the feelings of being loved, hope, and also how it feels to be alone.
The writer is aching for the love of someone who so far has refused his advances which causes him to be sad, even though he doesn't want to give up.
This is completely against the love ideal of something to be happy and cheerful about.
