Answer 1

(a) In Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible," evidence of sharp divisions in Salem is evident through the Salem witch trials. The townspeople are split between those who support the accusations of witchcraft and those who oppose them. The conflict arises from personal vendettas, religious differences, and social tensions, creating a deeply divided community.(b) Two characters who may be accused of witchcraft by the end of the play are Elizabeth Proctor and John Proctor. Elizabeth becomes a target due to personal animosities and false testimonies, while John faces accusations because of his defiance of the court and his reluctance to conform to the hysteria. Their opposition to the trials and their conflicts with influential individuals make them vulnerable to accusations.
