Macbeth Review

The main setting of Macbeth is

• England

• Wales

• Scotland

Macbeth acts as he does because he

• is weak

• has always been evil

• is ambitious

Lady Macbeth's motive for urging Macbeth on is that she

• wants to be queen

• is a callous criminal

• wants her husband to gain power and prestige

The witches

• implant the evil deed in Macbeth's mind

• reinforce the evil thoughts Macbeth already has

• distract Macbeth from his purpose

Banquo's son is

• Donalbain

• Fleance

• Macdonwald

The weird sisters/witches symbolize

• Macbeth's guilt

• evil temptation in the world

• religion

Lady Macbeth does not kill Duncan because he

• wakes up

• is wearing a crucifix

• looks like her father

As a king, Macbeth is

• wise and tolerant

• tyrannical and unjust

• insignificant and indecisive

The turning point in Macbeth's success comes when

• Banquo's ghost appears at the banquet

• Lady Macbeth's dies

• Fleance escapes

Macbeth meets his fate

• as a physical coward

• as a repentant

• with desperate bravery
