**__ Act 2 Journal Response Questions __**


 * 1. How does Shakespeare contrast the characters of Banquo and Macbeth in this scene? (Scene 1) **

Banquo and macbeth seem to be contrasted good parters or friends, or so Banquo thinks. When the witches introduced an idea to Macbeth Banquo declined it while Macbeth deiced to proceed with it. Banquo does seem somewhat suspicious about Macbeths deceisive behaviour.


 * 2. Compare Lady Macbeth’s opening comments in this scene to Macbeth’s soliloquy. What can you say about the difference between the two characters? (Scene 2) **

Lady Macbeth when she was saying her soliloquy didnt not feel any sort of guilt and was protrayed as being very evil and more while Macdeth felt very guilty and unsure of the whether or not he should go with the plan
 * 3. Sleep is a very important image in the play. What is the significance of Macbeth saying, ‘Methought I heard a voice cry, ‘Sleep no more: Macbeth does murder sleep’? (Scene 2) **

The significance of this is that it shows how guilty Macbeth felt about this plan and how’d he feel after he has committed the murder of Lord Duncan whether he’s feel better or worse.
 * 4. Why is it ironic that Macduff should say to Lady Macbeth, “O gentle lady/ ‘Tis not for you to hear what I can speak’? (Scene 3) **

Its ironic because Lady Macbeth was the one that was part of the murder of lord Duncan

The significance is that the circle of nature has been disrupted by the 3 witches and that all of nature is now unbalanced and odd.
