what are the difference of a past tense and a past perfect tense..thanks for answering my question​

Answers

Answer:

These two tenses are both used to talk about things that happened in the past. However you should use past perfect tense to talk about something that happened before another action in the past

Example

Past tense:

They ate the meal

Past perfect tense:

They had already eaten the meal

Answer:

Ambos indican acciones que ya han sido completadas, pero los tiempos difieren en estructura y significado. El tiempo pasado simple también es conocido como tiempo pretérito e indica una acción que ocurrió en un punto determinado del tiempo. El tiempo pasado perfecto incluye el tiempo pasado del verbo "to have" (haber).

Perhaps a good night's rest would have given him a better result. ( What is the verb or verb phrase)

Answers

Answer:

would have given.

Explanation:

A verb phrase is a phrase that includes a main verb, modal and an auxiliary verb. The pattern usually follows first with a modal then an auxiliary verb and finally the main verb. In fact, in a verb phrase, the main verb should always come last.

Here, the verb phrase is "would have given" as it includes a modal which is 'would', an auxiliary verb which is 'have' and the main verb which is 'given'. In some cases, there can two auxiliary verbs in a verb phrase such as 'would (have been) giving' or 'might (have been) dancing'.

Read the excerpt from Act I, scene ii of Romeo and Juliet. Servant: God gi’ good den. I pray, sir, can you read? 55 Romeo: Ay, mine own fortune in my misery. Servant: Perhaps you have learn’d it without book: but, I pray, can you read any thing you see? Romeo: Ay, if I know the letters and the language. Servant: Ye say honestly; rest you merry! [Offering to go.] Romeo: Stay, fellow; I can read. What causes the servant to ask for Romeo’s help? The servant needs directions. The servant cannot see. The servant needs to pray. The servant cannot read.

Answers

Answer:

The servant cannot read.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Ju liet" revolves around the tragic love story of two "star-crossed" lovers stuck in a secret that eventually led to their deaths. The play delves into the theme of romantic love that is violent, overpowering everything including one's loyalty and emotions.

In the given dialogue between the servant from the Capulets and Romeo, we can know that the servant is looking for someone to read the list of names he was given for the party at his master's house. His assertion that he needs someone who can read, and continuously asking Romeo "can you read? [. . .] can you read anything you see?" clearly suggests that he cannot read what he holds in his hand.

Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.

Explanation:

Answer:

Character Description and Relationships with Other Characters

Orsino

He is the lovesick duke of Illyria. Orsino is a noble man but lacks the courage to directly woo his lady, Olivia. He is melancholy and despondent. Orsino uses Cesario (Viola in disguise) as a go-between to convey his messages to Olivia. He is unaware that Viola is actually in love with him.

Olivia

Olivia is a countess (a lady of high social rank). She is proud and dignified. Following the death of her brother, she became the head of her household. She has gone into a self-imposed seclusion of seven years to mourn her brother. She scorns Duke Orsino and spurns his moves to impress her. Nevertheless, she succumbs to the charms of Cesario (Viola in disguise), the messenger from Orsino’s court. This situation creates a complicated love triangle in which Orsino loves Olivia, Olivia loves Cesario (Viola), and Viola loves Orsino.

Viola

Viola, the play’s protagonist, is a young lady of noble birth who finds herself on the shores of Illyria after a shipwreck. She is told that her twin brother, Sebastian, was not found after the shipwreck. Viola must fend for herself in a strange land. Therefore, she decides to disguise herself as a man named Cesario and serves as a page to Duke Orsino. She falls in love with him but is unable to express her feelings because she is disguised. Throughout the play, she handles difficult situations effectively and emerges as an intelligent, resourceful, and strong woman.

Sebastian  

Sebastian is Viola’s twin brother who was lost in the shipwreck. He is saved by Antonio, a sea-captain who becomes his devoted friend. Sebastian is often mistaken as Cesario in the course of the play. He is a loving brother and has a penchant for adventure.

Antonio  

Antonio is a sea-captain who saved Sebastian after the shipwreck. He takes on the responsibility of safeguarding Sebastian in Illyria. Antonio comes upon Viola disguised as Cesario in the duel scene and thinks that she is Sebastian. He is a loyal and devoted friend.

Malvolio  

Malvolio is the steward in Olivia’s household. He has ambitions of climbing the social ladder by marrying Olivia. He is a puritan who abhors merrymaking, is vain, and is self-absorbed. Malvolio is immersed in self-love. As a steward, he is always berating those who are lower in rank than he is. People hate him for his condescending attitude toward them. He is at odds with Sir Toby, who is a compulsive drinker. Maria, Sir Toby, and Andrew Aguecheek trick Malvolio into making a fool of himself in front of Olivia.

Maria

Maria is a maid in Olivia’s household. She does not like Sir Toby’s drinking habit but dislikes Malvolio more. She writes the letter that causes Malvolio to appear in yellow cross garters in front of Olivia and act like a madman. Maria is sharp tongued and witty. She is also the love-interest of Sir Toby.

Sir Toby Belch

He is Olivia’s uncle who drinks and whiles away his time in the company of Andrew Aguecheek. This behavior earns Sir Toby the disapproval of Malvolio. Sir Toby, in turn, conspires to insult Malvolio. He comes across as a careless and irresponsible person who loves to play practical jokes.

Andrew Aguecheek

He is Sir Toby Belch’s favorite drinking partner. He is an aristocrat who earns three thousand ducats a year. He is not very intelligent and is gullible enough to be manipulated by Sir Toby. Sir Andrew Aguecheek also tries to woo Olivia, but she rejects him.

Feste

Feste is the clown in Olivia’s household. His duty is to entertain people with his antics. Feste has the freedom to say what he likes. He has a way with words and indulges in punning. Feste is also the aloof observer who makes precise comments on the behavior of other characters. He points out their folly and entertains them at the same time. He is the typical Shakespearean fool, with great insight into human nature.

Valentine  

He is a servant in Orsino’s court.

Curio

He is an attendant in Orsino’s court.

Fabian He is a servant in Olivia’s household and is party to the conspiracy against Malvolio.

Jenny rolled up her sleeves
As she sifted through the soybeans
Each sphere and oval shape more beautiful
Than her grandmother's blue cursive

She waved at the full moon
Out and about competing with daylight
Sand hill cranes flapped their wings
In the lunar sky

She touched the soil with her bare fingers
Searching for the traces of her father
He had tilled the ground only in the summer
Telling her about the perennials
"Some things are rooted, child," he'd said

Replacing the mud back to the earth
Jenny searched for her father in the setting sun
Somewhere in the horizon her eyes stopped looking

She had earned his love for all things living
She was her father's perennial plant
And knew she was rooted at home
