Answer:

Things are not always what they seem.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's tragedy "Hamlet" tells the revenge story of how a murdered king's son avenged the death of his father at the hands of his own uncle. King Claudius had not only murdered of his brother for the throne, but also took his wife as his own.

The characters of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern were the two childhood friends of prince Hamlet. At first, they were loyal to him and acted for him, but in later scenes, we see them shift their loyalty to King Claudius. They began to be employed as spies by Claudius, for when he suspects Hamlet of doing things to hurt him.

In Act III scene iii, we find a disturbed Claudius after seeing the 'performance play' arranged by Hamlet. The obedience of Rosencrantz and Guilderstern in following Claudius' orders to send Hamlet away from him is a reflection of their seeming ignorance about what the real situation is. They are blindly following orders. Through these two characters, Shakespeare develops the theme of ignorance on their part, that things are not always what they seem to be shown.

- Money is not important to all. --> indefinite pronoun "all" is the object of the preposition "to".

Answer:

Check the answer and explanations below

Explanation:

The author's purpose is to show how the women and blacks have been able to prove wrong the racist and sexist assumptions of the American Aviation by ensuring that they continue to remain relevant in the aviation industry. The sole aim is to prove that performance is not limited by sex or skin color.

The women and African - Americans did not allow the wrong sexist and racist assumptions upon which the American aviation was based to debar them from making their marks in the aviation industry.

This is evident from the author's statements "American aviation was from its very beginnings marred with sexist and racist assumptions" and "...Yet despite these prevailing prejudices, the dream and the desire to fly stayed alive among women and African- Americans." and
