Read the excerpts from ovid’s pyramus and thisbe and shakespeare’s romeo and juliet.

"pyramus and thisbe" : "they had no confidant—and so used signs: with these each lover read the other's mind: when covered, fire acquires still more force."

"romeo and juliet": "romeo: she hath forsworn to love, and in that vow do i live dead that live to tell it now. benvolio: be ruled by me, forget to think of her. romeo: o, teach me how i should forget to think. benvolio: by giving liberty unto thine eyes; examine other beauties".

which statement best describes the difference between these excerpts?

only ovid suggests that romantic relationships encounter obstacles or objections. only ovid shows his male character searching for a more suitable companion. only shakespeare reveals a character’s doubts about his beloved. only shakespeare shows a character warning against a doomed relationship.

Only Shakespeare shows a character warning against a doomed relationship.

In the excerpt from "Romeo and Juliet", Benvolio tells Romeo to forget about Rosaline since he can't have her. He counsels Romeo against pining after the girl he can't have and suggests he go look for someone else. Benvolio's solution works because Romeo falls in love with Juliet that night and gets married the next day.

Ovid is not the only one suggesting that relationships have obstacles. Romeo can't be with Rosaline because she has sworn a vow of chastity. Ovid does not show his male character looking for a more suitable companion. Neither of the characters reveal doubts about their beloveds.

either a donut or a sphere or a pancake or a flat sphere. it depends on where the vertical line is.

if the line goes through the center of the circle and is perpendicular to a diameter containing the center, then you get a flat circle.

if the line and the diameter of a the circle meet in the center of the diameter and at an angle, you get a pancake.

if the line is on the circumference of the circle and is at right angles   to the circle you get a ring.

if the line contains the diameter, you get a sphere.

the the line is parallel to the diameter and touches the circumference, you get a donut.
