In Elizabethan times, a person's social position was very important. Someone of a lower rank could not marry a person of a highe

r rank. Which set of lines from act I, scene V, of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night shows Olivia's interest in Cesario's (Viola's) social rank when Viola tries to woo Olivia on Orsino's behalf? OLIVIA: Get you to your lord;
I cannot love him: let him send no more;
Unless, perchance, you come to me again,
To tell me how he takes it. Fare you well:
I thank you for your pains: spend this for me. VIOLA: I am no fee'd post, lady; keep your purse;
My master, not myself, lacks recompense.
Love make his heart of flint that you shall love;
And let your fervour, like my master's, be
Placed in contempt! Farewell, fair cruelty.
[Exit.] OLIVIA: What is your parentage?
'Above my fortunes, yet my state is well:
I am a gentleman.'—I'll be sworn thou art;
Thy tongue, thy face, thy limbs, actions, and spirit,
Do give thee five-fold blazon. Not too fast:—soft, soft!
Unless the master were the man.—How now?
Even so quickly may one catch the plague?
Methinks I feel this youth's perfections
With an invisible and subtle stealth
To creep in at mine eyes. Well, let it be.—

The lines from Act I, Scene V of Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" that reveal Olivia's interest in the social status of Cesario (Viola) when Viola tries to court Olivia on Orsino's behalf are: "What is your parentage? 'Above my fortunes, yet my state is well: I am a gentleman.'—I'll wager you are." Olivia inquires about Cesario's lineage, indicating her fascination, which leads her to realize she is developing feelings for him. In the Elizabethan era, social standing was immensely significant. Individuals of a lower class could not marry those of a higher class. As a woman of noble birth, Olivia had to be extremely cautious regarding her marriage choices.

Julia is writing an essay comparing "Children of the Drug Wars" and Enrique's Journey. She writes this topic sentence.
hammer [7621]

Answer:

The responses are:

1. Judges should gain better insight into the adversities these children face, as they currently reject seven out of ten asylum applications from individuals undergoing deportation processes.

4. Enrique attempts to maintain his cleanliness by scouring for cardboard to use as bedding. He conserves some water from his bottle to wash his arms.

5. Two migrants are afraid to venture into town. They offer Enrique 20 pesos and request he buys food, promising to share it with him if he returns with it.

Explanation:

Both the editorial by Nazario and the biography depict the struggles of the immigrant children in a foreign land. They evoke feelings of empathy in readers for Enrique and other migrants from Central America.

The first point emphasizes the need for judges to acknowledge the hardships faced by children and approve their asylum claims for protection. The fourth point illustrates that both pieces convey the reality that Enrique sleeps on pieces of cardboard to avoid dirt and saves water for washing his arms. The fifth point highlights migrants who, out of fear, ask Enrique to buy food in exchange for 20 pesos.

What do the phrases "made man" and "making of a man" mean in the context of the story? Use evidence from the text to explain you
Gnom [7528]
The term "making of a man" signifies the journey towards achieving success and prosperity, while "made man" indicates having reached that level of success.
In the discussion about Harris’s "humble feeding house," Henry mentions, "I played a pivotal role in Harris's rise. It became widely known that the foreign eccentric, who carried million-pound notes in his waistcoat, was the establishment's main benefactor." As news spreads that Henry, already famous for possessing a million-pound bill, dines at Harris’s restaurant, its fame surges dramatically. Previously, the eatery had been described as "poor and struggling," but it transformed into a "notable and bustling spot" once London society learned of Henry’s patronage.
Conversely, the phrase "made man" is illustrated when Henry features in a caricature by Punch. He remarks, "Yes, Punch depicted me! I had truly become a made man; my status was solidified. Jokes may still come my way, but always with respect, not mockery; I could be the subject of smiles, but not laughter." This public parody solidifies Henry’s reputation and catapults him to fame.
