Banquo is a foil (paragraph)
Banquo is the perfect foil to Macbeth. A foil is a character that follows the same storyline as the protagonist but makes different choices. Both Banquo and Macbeth are Thanes at the beginning of the story, they are also both coming back from war. They are both greeted by the witches and are given prophecies, this is when the first choice is made. Macbeth decides that he must make the prophecy a reality while Banquo waits for the prophecy to come. Also Banquo questions the witches while Macbeth believes what he heard almost immediately. But Banquo goes through the same story path as Macbeth.

Heroic Couplets
Soliloquy: when a character thinks out loud and changes his mind frequently.
Heroic Couplet: at the end of the soliloquy, means a decision has been made. 2 lines that iambic pants meter that rhyme.
"Hear it not Duncan for it is a knell
That summons thee to heaven or to hell."

Homeless paragraphs
Link vs the average homeless.
The difference between Link and the average homeless is that they in fact soften the blow of the awfulness of homelessness. They make it seem like Link from the book though suffering is finding friends and making small amounts of money, while in real life theses people rarely acquire any money, and when they do a test has shown that 70% of people spent their small amount of money on drugs and liquor. Link also only spent one night in a hostel or house the average homeless person spends only one night on the street. Though their are a couple differences there are a lot similarities. Homeless people often travel or live in groups or pairs, Link travels and "lives" with Ginger, also Ginger try's to Link to smoke. Also many job opportunities and homeless shelters reject him because he quote " Made himself homeless". I am not 100% sure if people who made the self homeless or rejected from charity's and shelters, but in the book this is mentioned. Also Link received no help from homeless charities and centres.
