Explanation:

Note that idioms are expressions (words or sentences) that are used figuratively to communicate ideas in English.

For example, if in a passage one character John tells another Peter that 'I'm all ears, the word ear mentioned by John is an idiomatic expression that means he has given the other character his full attention. If you were to take it literally it would mean he is saying he is an ear.

lianna [129]

1. Hamlet feels sorrow, regret and finally despair as he pronounces his soliloquy.

2. He realises that his awe is small compared to the burden of death we all carry, so he must "think bloody" from now on.

3. The audience should feel sorry for him, at first, but it should change by his conclusion.

4. The actor should be slow paced, almost still at first, then energetic and louder towards the end. His facial expression must go from sadness to anger, to madness.

Identify the underlined clause as either dependent or independent. Miss Bottrell was beaming because her students did so well on
Cerrena [4.2K]

“because her students did so well on the test” is a dependant and adverbial clause.

It is a dependant clause because it is part of a sentence, and to complete its meaning, it depends on the main clause (Miss Bottrell was beaming)

The subordinator conjunction “because” introduces the adverbial clause. It is a clause of purpose as it can be recognized by answering the question “Why was Miss Bottrell beaming”?
