Answer and Explanation:
1. The point of obligation of a person passes from the country to another individual when there is greater responsibility than that other individual requires. As shown in the question above, Desdemona had a strong obligation to care for and support her husband, as she lived in a time when women were "properties" of their husbands and were to devote themselves completely to them.
2. It is possible to have an obligation to parents and to another individual, as long as the person who has this obligation is able to organize well and get help, because having obligations to someone is a very big burden and the more people who have this obligation, the greater the burden.
3. The problems that can be generated from this is the overload of people who have obligations to many other people. In this case, to avoid these problems it is necessary to define priorities and delegate the obligations to those involved.
Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by nature—by a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble.
In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.
Which line from the text shows why the first fires were so carefully guarded?
In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match;
These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there.
It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering.
A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out.
Answer:
Explanation:
Just because it could sputter and trow fire ion all directions it was dangerouls and must have been kept safe.

The writer uses metaphor to tell the audience that England will defeat Germany in the war.
Explanation:
According to the given excerpt from the speech "Cause of the Great War", the narrator talks about how Great Britain and other countries begged Germany not to invade Belgium because if they did so, their Allies would fight back, but they refused to take heed and tried to act like they were the ones that started the war.
The statement that accurately describes the use of rhetorical devices in this excerpt is that the writer uses metaphor to tell the audience that England will defeat Germany in the war.
