Why did Elizabeth proctor feel unworthy of Johns love
Answer:
Elizabeth felt unworthy of her husband's love because she felt that she wasn't enough of a wife to the good John Proctor.
Explanation:
Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible" revolves around the Salem witch trials that happened in the late 17th century. The play was set alongside the trails that saw many innocent people wrongly convicted and hanged for practicing witchcraft.
In the play, Elizabeth Proctor was also one of the women accused of practicing it. when asked to testify to her husband's claims of his own affairs with their former helper Abigail, Elizabeth refused to reveal the truth of the affair. In her opinion, she only thought that her husband deviated from her because of her sickness, which led to her turning Abigail away from their home. She stated "My husband is a good and righteous man. He is never drunk as some are, nor wastin' his time at the shovelboard, but always at his work." And in doing so, she justified whatever Proctor had done and only blamed herself for the way her husband acted.
She 'reveres' her husband and would only accept his goodness and not the bad things he had done, claiming "John, I counted myself so plain, so poorly made, no honest love could come to me! Suspicion kissed you when I did; I never knew how I should say my love. It were a cold house I kept!"

Read this passage from chapter 5 of The Prince.
But when cities or countries are accustomed to live under a prince, and his family is exterminated, they, being on the one hand accustomed to obey and on the other hand not having the old prince, cannot agree in making one from amongst themselves, and they do not know how to govern themselves. For this reason they are very slow to take up arms, and a prince can gain them to himself and secure them much more easily. But in republics there is more vitality, greater hatred, and more desire for vengeance, which will never permit them to allow the memory of their former liberty to rest; so that the safest way is to destroy them or to reside there.
What is Machiavelli’s primary purpose in writing this passage?
A) to inform readers about the differences between principalities and republics
B) to entertain readers with exciting stories of historical wars, conquests, and rebellions
C) to convince readers that, to hold a conquered republic, a prince must ruin it or live there

What is Parris trying to do when he questions Proctor on his church attendance and criticize him for “plowing on Sundays”?
Answer:
"The Crucible"
Reverend Parris is trying to assert his religious authority as the only religious figure in charge of the Salem church and community. This is why he questions John Proctor on his church attendance. He also criticizes Proctor for "plowing on Sundays" for the same purpose. But John Proctor is always opposed to Reverend Parris.
The conflicts in this play were accentuated by the different personalities of two principal characters, John Proctor and Reverend Parris. John Proctor does not have any respect for Reverend Parris because he believes that the Reverend is a fraud, superstitious, defensive, and selfish, and he always plays the victims mentality. This attitude was on full display during the witch trial of the girls alleged to have been caught dancing in the forest. On the other hand, Reverend Parris accuses Proctor of breaking the Sunday Sabbath. John Proctor is seen as a practical, assertive, and self-assured person, and he does not play to the gallery.
Explanation:
"The Crucible" was a 1953 play by Arthur Miller about the Salem witch trials of 1692. Reverend Parris found some girls dancing naked in the forest who claimed that they were bewitched. A special court was instituted to investigate these allegations. During the court sitting, over a hundred of Salem's citizens were accused of witchcraft. The main lesson from "The Crucible" is that mob mentality in any social, religious, or political situation can lead to thoughtless, unethical, and illogical reactions. In this play, innocent people were persecuted because of these unfounded allegations.

Read the excerpt from Act I of Hamlet.
Ghost: Upon my secure hour thy uncle stole,
With juice of cursed hebona in a vial,
And in the porches of mine ears did pour
The leperous distilment; whose effect
Holds such an enmity with blood of man
That swift as quicksilver it courses through
The natural gates and alleys of the body.
Which correctly analyzes the use of figurative language in the excerpt?
The simile compares the poison to a fast-moving, toxic element, emphasizing its deadliness.
The metaphor compares the uncle to a poisonous plant, which illustrates his deadly intent.
The personification of the vial makes it seem more lethal.
The apostrophe allows the ghost to address the evil uncle.
Answer:
A. The simile compares the poison to a fast-moving, toxic element, emphasizing its deadliness.
Explanation:
The ghost doesn't compare the uncle to poison. Nor does he personify the vial. He is literally explaining how the uncle poisoned him by poured the poisonous plant hebona into his ear. Lastly, an apostrophe in literature is when you address someone who isn't there. The ghost isn't addressing the uncle. I believe he is speaking to Hamlet in this scene.
