Read the excerpt from act 5, scene 1, of Julius Caesar. CASSIUS. Now, most noble Brutus,
The gods today stand friendly, that we may,
Lovers in peace, lead on our days to age.
But since the affairs of men rest still incertain,
Let’s reason with the worst that may befall.
If we do lose this battle, then is this
The very last time we shall speak together:
What are you then determinèd to do?

What does Cassius’s description of Brutus as noble rather than the synonym aristocratic tell us about his feelings toward Brutus?

Using aristocratic would be a compliment while noble has become a description that includes sarcasm.
Using noble shows how motivated both Brutus and Cassius are by a love of peace.
Using aristocratic would be insulting to Brutus while noble suggests the positive qualities Cassius sees in him such as dignity, generosity, and compassion.
Using noble is a term of endearment and great respect between longtime loyal friends where aristocratic would be impersonal.

He said it was because a private detective sees the dark side of human nature. but whatever the reason, gill landers had an innate suspicion of politicians. when senator randy brill walked into his office on that summer day in august, mopping his flushed features with a monogrammed handkerchief, gill could think of no good reason to change his attitude. he'd only met brill once. that had been two years ago at a country club reception for state political notables. since then, he'd learned all he wanted to know about the senator's sinister reputation. gill sat back in his chair, put his feet on his desk, and fought to keep a poker face. but there was no way he could stop the chill that coursed along his spine like a rush of ice water. 29. in this paragraph, the word notables probably signifies that the persons so described a. would like to be politicians. b. are wealthy people. c. have political influence. d. are contributors to charity.
