The purpose of paraphrasing Shakespeare’s text is to ?

(A)change the setting to modern day.

(B) make the language easier to understand.

(C)correct possible mistakes in the original plays.

(D) outline the relations among the characters.

The correct answer is option (B) make the language easier to understand.

Explanation:

The original Shakespearean works have a language that can be a bit difficult or strange for the reader.

The purpose of paraphrasing Shakespeare is to make reading easier for the reader.

Let's think of some Shakespearean phrases:

In Julius Caesar we have the phrase "Et tu, Brute?" and that is not written in any language we know. Paraphrased would be: "You too, Brutus?"

Consider also Hamlet:

"‘Tis now struck twelve; get thee to bed, Francisco." which a modern translation translates as ‘It’s just gone midnight,” said Bernardo. ‘Get off to bed, Franciso.’

In this way we can see how a paraphrase makes reading more understandable for us readers, therefore the correct answer is option B.

each poet admires poetry

they each admire poetry because they could just use an expression or verbally just say you but they both write in in poetry which shows they know how to write in poetry.

animal farm, written by george orwell, is a representation of russia after the revolution that led stalin to take over power.

in this excerpt, the central idea seems to be that the animals (a representation of society), when they believe to be working for a greater good and equality, are obedient and productive. they were convinced that, after expelling the owner (jones) from the farm, they would live in harmony and be fairly treated.

as we know, the pigs become the leaders and grow more selfish and dictatorial with time. in the end, they look and act in a way so similar to humans that it is impossible to tell the difference. the ideals of equality are shattered, and the farm turns out to be worse than it was before. the animals are manipulated with false propaganda and forced to work in order to enrich the pigs.
