Answer 1

Answer 1:- The difference we have from other people is what defines and separates us. Someone with longer legs may be able to run faster than someone with short legs and that’s because of their differences. Someone with a bad attitude might gets more attitude than someone who has respect that’s something that defines you. What defines you are your traits and everyone has different traits that make you who you are

Answer 3:-

The Character I’m choosing to write about is Juliet.

          If I were in her shoes throughout this story one thing I would have done differently is, I would have fought harder than just pretending to be dead. I also would have thought about telling Romeo what the plan was so communication didn’t kill them both. Their love was so strong they couldn’t bare be without each other but in the end, there love kept them alive and together with hope then killed them.

          (Juliet and Romeo enter the church)

Juliet: Dear Romeo however shall we be able to be together? Must we run away together so we can live in happiness and peace? Or shall we surrender to our families and move forward?

Romeo: My dear Juliet I shall never give up on our love. We must run away if that’s what it’ll take for us to be together and happy.

(People trying to break into the church In the back round)

Juliet: We should go now then come back later to say goodbye to the nurse.

Then Juliet and Romeo take off to start their new life together.
