Among these unlucky deeds. the immediate one is _________
Detalles de la respuesta
The term "immediate" in the question suggests that we are looking for an act that directly led to a negative outcome or consequence. Among the unlucky deeds listed, the immediate one is the killing of Desdemona. This is because the murder of Desdemona is the direct cause of the tragic ending of the play, as it leads to the discovery of Iago's lies and the suicide of Othello. The other deeds listed may have contributed to the overall tragic outcome, but they were not the immediate cause of the tragedy. Therefore, the correct answer is: "the killing of Desdemona".

If after every tempest come such calms.
May the winds blow till they have wakened death,
And let the labouring bark climb hills of seas
Olympus-high, and duck again as low
As hell's from heaven. If it were now to die,
'T were now to be most happy: for I fear
My soul hath her content so absolute
That not another comfort like to this
Succeeds in unknown fate.

Read the Passage and answer questions 21- 25.
Mark lies sleepless, his supine eyes rolling as he counts the rafters- vertically, horizontally, diagonally-over and over. There is continual rumbling in his belly. Lying so still, whom can he blame now? Isn't it his own fault to be like this? Three months ago, Atongo and Agbenya said they were leaving town because "things have become too hard." as they put it. They asked Mark to come along. He declined saying that he would have to prepare. Of course, he simply could not go-dare not. He had a pact with Akwele who sells kenkey downtown: neither could leave town without the other. At the time Mark's friends were ready, Akwele had travelled to Accra and would, unknown to anyone, not return in a hurry. This is why Mark is lying dejected on his bed, a hungry man. Anyhow, he is not an angry man.

Detalles de la respuesta
The literary device used to enhance sound effect in poetry is alliteration.

Walker, stop and let me move and check you
My sneaky, fleeting moon of reckless birth
The light of hope you flashed at dawn has dimmed
And flickers weakly, so you squint at Earth.
Walker, stand and let me sit and quiz you
Will foes and friends be irked if Mum you tell
The bitter tale of woe behind your flu?
The trickling tears unseen announce your age.
Walker, stay and let me come and tell you
My fleeting moon, I own you dim my light
Your sparkling blouse has turned a darker hue
You must, I guess, have done a steeplechase.
