8. Read these lines from Alfred, Lord Tennyson’s “The Lady of Shalott.” “On either side the river lie/Long fields of barley and of rye,/That clothe the wold and meet the sky;/And through the field the road runs by/To many­towered Camelot…” To whose home does the road lead?Beowulf
Grendel
The Wife of Bath
King Arthur

Answers

The road leads to King Arthur's home. King Arthur lives in Camelot. 

Camelot was King Arthur's castle and the capital of his legendary kingdom. The Lady of Shalott is a young noble woman who lives secluded in an island, imprisoned in a tower that lies by a river that flows to Camelot. She suffers from an strange curse that prevents her from looking directly down to Camelot; instead, she has to weave images on her loom and look at a mirror that reflects the road that passes by her island and that leads to Camelot, always busy with all sorts of people. But one day she spots one of King Arthur's knights, Lancelot, as he is riding down his horse from Camelot, and she finally "looks down" to Camelot. She then realizes that the curse has come upon her, and decides to leave her prison and head to Camelot in a boat, but sadly she dies right before reaching her longed-for destination.

What is the suffix in the word “disqualification

Answers

The suffix in the word "disqualification" is "-tion".

A suffix is a morpheme added at the end of a word. Moreover, a suffix generally consists of a group of letters and it makes possible to form new words, also called derived words. In that way, sometimes, suffixes can also change the meaning of a word, add more information to that word and even modify its function. For example, it is possible to transform a verb into a noun just by adding a suffix at the end of a word. Some of the most common suffixes besides "-tion" are "-ed", "-er" and "-ity".

How do judicial reviews in the dissent differ from those in the majority opinion? A) The arguments of the dissent are reviewed and summarized
B) In the dissent, the majority opinion itself is used as evidence
C) Notes taken by the attorneys are used to support the dissent's argument.
D) The dissent depends on previous, similar cases for support.

Answers

The difference is that in dissent, the majority opinion is used as evidence, as shown in option B.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Dissent is a term that refers to permission to disagree with an official legal position, especially when it comes to a collective decision.
  • In this case, the dissent is formed by a group of people who disagree with the decisions taken by a majority.
  • In a court of law, a majoritydecision occurs when more than half of the jurors issue a position. Dissent is a separate opinion that disagreed with the majority.

When there are cases of dissent, the majority decision is used as evidence, while the majority decision does not consider dissent as evidence under any circumstances.
