c. she wants her husband to dispatch a message to the duncans.
d. she wants her guests to feel comfortable even though shes upset.

Explanation:

For the first question: In Shakespeare's Macbeth lines 58-67, Lady Macbeth uses the serpent (to hide malicious intent behind a gentle appearance), the thane title (relating to Macbeth's status), and frames the murder as a "book" of deception. She does not use a flower as a symbol in this passage.
For the second question: Lady Macbeth's line 65 ("Your face, my thane, is as a book where men / May read strange matters") leads her to urge Macbeth to put on a welcoming front for Duncan while she manages the murder plot, meaning she intends to take charge of the night's scheme to kill Duncan.

Answer:

1. b. flower
2. b. She wants to be in charge of tonight's major scheme.
