ENGLISH HOMEWORK: ROMEO AND JULIET

Two families, the same in almost every respect,
In the town of Verona, Italy, where this play is set,
Continue an old feud with new breakouts of violence,
Involving and killing citizens outside the families.
The son of one family and the daughter of the other,
Having become lovers, commit suicide,                                    < MODERN TRANSLATION
Following a series of events that keep them apart.
Their deaths cause the families to end the feud.
The events that lead to their suicide,
As well as the continuing feud between the families,
(which nothing but their children’s death could end),
Will now be performed on this stage for two hours.
If you listen to the play attentively, any details you
Missed in this introduction, will be explained as you watch the play.

Two households, both alike indignity,
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-cross’d lovers take their life;
Whose misadventur’d piteous overthrows                               < ORIGINAL                                                      
Doth, with their death, bury their parents’ strife.
The fearful passage of their death-mark’d love,
And the continuance of their parents’ rage,
Which, but their children’s end, naught could remove,
Is now the two hours’ traffic of our stage;
The which if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.

ENGLISH PROJECT: THE GREAT WAR

On 28th of June 2020 at 12:20 (future time) everything seemed normal, children running with there ice creams melting from the sun. Adults and children waiting for there turn on the London eye. Suddenly I had a flash back of what is going to happen in a couple of days later. Pain rushed through my veins and I felt shivers on my skin like its a warning that I wouldn’t like what I was about to see. I also felt walls blocking the flash forward. I tasted poison in my tongue trying to kill to me, the poison was trying to tell me to not take a step forward otherwise there would be death. I should of listened to the poison but at that time couldn’t understand the meaning. The challenges were getting harder its like walking to the top of a mountain with no air, every time I go one more step up the mountain more air is lost. Finally I reached the door that had the date which was the 28th June 2020. After the date it said the great war I had no idea what was the meaning of the great war so I just ingnored it and opened the door what I saw brought me into tears and fear, children evacuating their homes with their parents, men fighting for there country, women and children were left to weep while others tried to escape. when I looked around a grieving mother was weeping over the body of her daughter  this made me sad and guilty so I went to help her but then I remembered it was just a flash forward.Then it was pitch black nothing was there…suddenly writing came up it said ” RUN BEFORE ITS TOO LATE” Then it all returned normal the London eye was still standing the River themes was still there. I went on the bus sad and frightened looking at people and saying goodbye in my mind when I got home I hoped that it wasn’t true after thinking I went to sleep. After a nightmare sleep I went downstairs still half asleep to prepare my breakfast in that moment that I touched the ceral bowl I had a flash forward this times the building were completely destroyed and I couldn’t see anyone around. Right in front of me stood the sign of the London underground so I went down to London underground and saw lots of people with there coat on there back like its a blanket I also saw people make them self at home . Other people were getting on the train to live in at the moment. There on the stair was a man with a black coat which had pure red blood all over him to went to him and touched him when I did  everything was black again I knew that something creepy was about to happen like last time. Suddenly  another writing came which said ” ESCAPE AND HELP OTHER IN NEED AND GUIDE THEM TO SAFETY” then a escape map popped up it showed the hole city of London and other parts of London. In a flash a escape plan of my house appeared I wondered why would the flash forward send me a picture of a escape plan of my house. I also thought how does the flash forward know my house and were I live, is it alive? I asked my self. I went to my desk were I searched a map of London in the internet and drawed the route it said on the flash forward, then I drew the escape plan of my house in 2D then I thought if the flash forward sent me a picture of a escape plan of my house will it mean my house will be destroyed. Shortly after i discovered that my house I was going to be destroyed I went upstairs to my bedroom  to pack up my bag to prepare to escape my house if the flash forward is true. Luckily I had a list of things I need to pack.

Essay for English Project

Shakespeare keeps his audience in Macbeth using complex narrative techniques. One of these examples is the characters that are preforming, for example Macbeth , Macbeth is a mighty and ambitious warrior, one of the leaders of Duncans army. The three withches prophecy leads to murder Duncan so that he can be king. what also make the audience engaged is that Macbeth is good and innocent in the outside but bad in the inside and that’s whats makes Shakespeare audience interested. Another example is lady Macbeth, lady Macbeth is Macbeth’s wife. she is even more ambitious than her husband, she begs Macbeth to kill Duncan . One of the reasons i know that lady macbeth is ambitious is because of this soliloquy that she said”the raven him self is hoarse that croaks under my battlements. come, you spirts That tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here and fill me from the crown to the toe topfull of direst cruelty; make thick my bood, stop up th’ access and passage to remorse that no compunctious vistings of nature shake my fell purpose nor keep peace between th’ effects and it. come to my woman’s breasts and take my milk for gall, you murd’ring ministers’ wherever in your sightless substances you wait on nature’s mischief. come, thick night, and pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell, that my keen knife see not the wound it makes, nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark, to cry,’Hold, Hold”. The reason lady Macbeth says this is because she wants to become a man so that she can be king. My evidence is when she says “unsex me here” by unsex she means to transform her gender. The reason she wants change her gender is because in the old times they did not respect women’s, women’s were treated as slaves they worked as farmers or as a market seller. They could not be queen or any higher jobs, later on women’s could not vote for a president .Then women’s started to protest that women should vote as well.  Another example is the three witches, the three witches told Macbeth about the prophecy about he will be king but he has a rivial which is Duncan. The reason i know that witches told macbeth that he will be king is beacause the third witch said”all hail macbeth, that shalt be king hereafter” The three witches led to the death of Duncan.

People like characters who have ambition or a talent because, talents might come in handy in a story for example if a character is good at running they can put in the story that the character won the 100m race or was chasing a theif . Another reason why audience like Macbeth because of the personality of the character for example if the character is lazy, funny, angry or have a desire for something like a student want to get a good grade. personality means the combination of characteristics or qualities that form an individuals distinctive character
