He describes how people are behaving and what they are doing, including Hamlet and how his actions are perceived in the eyes of others. Direct would be if he directly told us things about Hamlet and his insanity, but this way he doesn't tell us but we understand the implications from the descriptions of what is going on.

Shakespeare uses indirect characterization in act II, scene I in Ophelia's conversation with Polonius, when she describes Hamlet’s behavior toward her. She relates Hamlet's apparent insanity in detail:

My lord, as I was sewing in my chamber,

Lord Hamlet, with his doublet all unbrac'd;

No hat upon his head; his stockings foul'd,

Ungart'red, and down-gyved to his ankle,

Pale as his shirt, his knees knocking each other,

And with a look so piteous in purport

As if he had been loosed out of hell

To speak of horror she comes before me.

PLATO CLASS!

schepotkina [342]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read the sentence from the speech.

"Those who came before us made that this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention, and the first wave of nuclear power, and this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space."

Why is the propaganda technique used in the sentence effective?

A. It persuades the reader to ask for more help from other countries in future space  exploration programs.

B. It convinces the reader to support this country's continued efforts in being a  forerunner in all scientific endeavors.

C. It persuades the reader to want to save money on future scientific projects in this  country.

D. It convinces the reader to support other countries' efforts toward space exploration.

Answer:

B. It convinces the reader to support this country's continued efforts in being a  forerunner in all scientific endeavors.

Explanation:

The repeated use of the word "first" to describe the United States´ historical role in technological development generates the idea that there´s an international competition for space exploration. Furthermore, the main propaganda technique used is a transfer to link the country´s role as the forerunner in previous developments to claim that we owe them being firsts in space exploration as well.

Which of these is a proper noun?<br> A. Doctor<br> B. Uncle<br> C. Tim<br> D. Robot
natima [27]

Tim is someone's name, and thus, <u>is a proper noun.</u>

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u> A proper noun is a specific noun. For example, "lake" is a common noun and thus do not need capitalization but Lake Michigan is a specific noun (because it's a specific place) and does need capitalized. All proper nouns need capitalization, and a common proper noun is someone's name.

Doctor can be used generally, you could say, "I think I need to go see a doctor" so that's not it

Uncle could work if you were referring to someone specifically. "My uncle is coming over" is using it in a general sense, but, "My Uncle John is coming over" is more specific, so that would be a specific noun but in this case, it isn't.

<u></u>

Robot by itself is a common noun so it isn't an option. For example, "did you see this cool robot she's working on?" It's used in a general sense.
