Read the following excerpt from Act V before answering the question that follows:
MACBETH: "... Let them fly all.
Till Birnam Wood remove to Dunsinane.
I cannot taint with fear. What's the boy Malcolm?
Was he not born of woman? The spirits that know
All mortal consequences have pronounced me thus:
'Fear not, Macbeth. No man that's born of woman
Shall e'er have power upon thee..."

What argument does Macbeth make to reassure himself that Malcolm and Macduff are not a threat
to him?

They are both far away in England.
They do not have the military power that he has.
They have both been born of a woman.
They have fled Scotland out of fear

C; They have both been born of a woman.

Explanation:

In the text, Macbeth writes "Was he not born of woman? The spirits that know All mortal consequences have pronounced me thus: 'Fear not, Macbeth. No man that's born of woman Shall e'er have power upon thee..." This is exemplifying how Macbeth is trying to convince himself that they aren't to be feared. Also, A, B, and D can't be the answer because neither makes any sense. Hope this helped :)

the purpose of the heading in the passage is to identify who is telling the story.

this excerpt is part of the book sugar changed the world (2010) written by marc aronson and marina budhos. as the book has been written by two people, the heading "marc" indicates that this specific excerpt is being narrated by aronson. in the fragment, marc describes his grandfather's story after hearing it from his cousin. however, there are other excerpts where budhos is the one that tells the story of her family.

aronson and budhos, who are husband and wife in real life, decided to write sugar changed the world when they found out how sugar, which had an important role in slavery and economy, changed their ancestors' lives.
