Answer: A.The allusion highlights the idea of avenging a father’s murder.

In the myth of the Trojan War, we learn of Pyrrhus, son of Achilles. Pyrrhus ends up killing Priam, the King of Troy himself, who was responsible for the war, and therefore, the death of his father Achilles. Pyrrhus is delighted to avenge the death of his father and does so in front of Hecuba, Priam's wife.

Hamlet uses this story to show that his intention is to similarly avenge his father's death by killing Claudius, who is also a king. In this comparison, Claudius is Priam, Hamlet is Pyrrhus and Gertrude is Hecuba.

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Adjective clause; sport.

Explanation:

An adjective clause is a type of clause that modifies or describes a noun in a sentence. It is also known as a relative clause and is a dependent clause, meaning, it cannot stand on its own as a full sentence.

In the given sentence, the subordinate clause used is an adjective clause that modifies the word "sport". The subordinate clause is "that is played in the countries around the world", containing a verb and a subject, thus making it an adjective clause and also modifying the noun "sport".

Thus, the correct answer is the last option.
