The theme of madness in Twelfth Night often overlaps the themes of desire and love. Orsino talks about the faculty of love producing multiple changing images of the beloved, similar to hallucinations. Olivia remarks at certain points that desire for Cesario is making her mad. These examples of madness are mostly metaphorical: madness becomes a way for characters to express the intensity of their romantic feelings.
But the play also has multiple characters that seem to go literally mad. As part of the prank that Maria, Sir Toby, and Fabian play on Malvolio, they convince everyone that he is crazy. The confusion that results from characters' mixing up Viola/Cesario and Sebastian, after Sebastian's arrival in Illyria, also leads many of them to think that they have lost their minds. The general comedy and chaos that creates (and results from) this confusion also references the ritualized chaos of the Twelfth Night holiday in Renaissance England.

Explanation:
1. Read the below except from the Preface written by Elie Wiesel about his memoir Night and then
respond to the question that follows.
... The topic of Auschwitz has become part of mainstream culture. There are films, plays, novels,
international conferences, exhibitions, annual ceremonies with the participation of the nation's
officialdom. The most striking example is that of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in
Washington D.C.; it has received more than twenty-two million visitors since its inauguration in 1993.
This may be because the public knows that the number of survivors is shrinking daily and is
fascinated by the idea of sharing memories that will soon be lost. For in the end, it is all about
memory, its sources, and its magnitude, and, of course, its consequences.
For the survivor who chooses to testify, it is clear: his duty is to bear witness for the dead and
for the living. He has no right to deprive future generations of a past that belongs to our collective
memory. To forget would be not only dangerous by offensive; to forget the dead would be akin to
killing them a second time.
Sometimes I am asked if I know "the response to Auschwitz"; I answer that not only do I not
know it, but that I don't even know if a tragedy of this magnitude has a response. What I do know is
that there is "response" in responsibility. When we speak of this era of evil and darkness, so close and
yet so distant, "responsibility” is the key word.
The witness has forced himself to testify. For the youth of today, for the children who will be
born tomorrow. He does not want his past to become their future.
In these final thoughts from the preface precluding his memoir Night, Elie Wiesel talks about
memories and trying to understand Auschwitz. What are your thoughts about the above excerpt in
context with a theme you observed at work in the novel? Write a response of no less than three
paragraphs explaining how the above exce
'rpt introduces and supports a theme you identified in the novel. Make sure to use textual
evidence from the novel to support your answer. (25 points)
The above excerpt shows how important it is to remember and testify about all the atrocities that occurred in the holocaust. Wiesel says that although the reports about what happened during this period may be uncomfortable for some people, it is the responsibility of those who witnessed this moment to testify about everything that happened. This is a way of honoring your own history, honoring the dead in this tragedy and moreover, this is a responsibility to the next generations.
The book written by Wiesel highlights the theme that states that the history of the holocaust must not be forgotten. Although the number of survivors decreases more and more, it is important that the holocaust is always discussed, shown and debated; its horrors must be displayed, so that future generations will recognize how dangerous prejudice and intolerance is and how it has hurt the history of mankind.
This exposure is important so that the next generations are responsible and do not allow events like this to happen again. In this way, it is expected that the reports of the survivors of the holocaust will generate conscious generations, who choose their leaders well, who have respect for others and who do not promote messages of hatred and superiority among peoples.

Answer:

Explanation:
Maintaining the current nine-month school year is essential to keeping students in school. Despite a limited statistic showing a smaller dropout rate, students in year-round school would find more stressors added to their already overwhelming lives. While the American education system does need to be reformed, changing the schedule is not the way to do it.
What makes this a strong conclusion?
It ends with a call to action for all schools to change to a year-round schedule.
It ends with a judgment that reform is needed but that the schedule should be left alone.
It ends with a judgment that students will not be affected regardless of any changes.
It ends with a call to action for students to participate in school reform.
The answer would be B. "It ends with a judgment that reform is needed but that the schedule should be left alone. "

Answer:
Anthropology - Man

The economy is the process through which the country's or even a state's goods are produced and supplied. This process constitutes one of the laws that govern the well being of the people.
Democracy is the form of governing a group of people, a system of governing where there are rights that are allowed or given to the citizens. In this form of government, the people hold the majority power instead of being ruled by a dictator. They also have the right to voice their concerns and even criticize the works of their elected leaders.
Judicious is the power system where a judge is elected to preside over certain serious matters between people. This power structure allows for a common ground where disputes can be peacefully settled and both sides of the story presented without any discrimination.
