“There is no doubt that Shylock is a cunning and vengeful man‚ but nothing can justify the treatment he receives at the hands of the Christians.” How far do you agree with this statement? Does Shylock deserve his punishment? Shylock is punished by the Venetian court for seeking to end Antonio’s life. He is charged under a Venetian law (of Shakespeare’s creation) and he is forced to give up his wealth and to beg the Duke to spare him his life. Viewed like this it seems simple enough; Shylock broke

Ladies and gentlemen‚ by the end of this year more people will die from second hand smoke related deaths than the average crowd at a Major League Baseball game. Secondhand‚ or passive smoke‚ is an insidious killer that is harming adults‚ and more critically‚ children around the country every day. My goal in speaking to you today
