"For instance, from here that looks like a bucket of water," he said, pointing to a bucket of water; "but from an ant's point of

view it's a vast ocean, from an elephant's just a cool drink, and to a fish, of course, it's home. So, you see, the way you see things depends a great deal on where you look at them from. Now, come along and I'll show you the rest of the forest." —The Phantom Tollbooth, Norton Juster Read the passage, then explain the point Alec makes about perspective.

Answer:

the point that the author is trying to convey is that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. what seems normal and ordinary to you may be someone elses biggest treasure. he bolsters this by giving examples comparing what a bucket of water is for differeent animals. what is a simple thing for the elephant is a home for the fish, and wht is a home for the fish is a big uncrossable path for the mouse.

As you know, Laertes and Fortinbras are two characters in Shakespeare’s play that serve as foils for Hamlet. How does each figur
Stella [2.4K]

Leartes and Fortinbras share the same fate as Hamlet, the three of them lost their fathers in unfortunate circumstances. They feel the same kind of grieve of losing a loved one. But each reacts, differently. Their behaviour play a close related trait towards advice and duty, action versus inaction and sanity versus madness. Hamlet and Leartes want to get revenge, while the first is looking forward is getting the throne back and considers the consequences of his actions. Leartes, on the other hand, is blinded by his feelings (madness) and takes belligerent actions without thinking on the consequences.

Hamlet and Fortinbras, want to take revenge both. Whereas Hamlet only seeks to get the throne back and keeps on devating on how and when to take action, Fortinbras wants to clean his family's name and fights in an orderly fashion, with the use of an army.

What do you think of queen gertrude
docker41 [41]
First, Queen Gertrude in Shakespeare's novel is the queen of Denmark, and mother of Hamlet.
In the story, you can only analysis Gertrude by what others say about her, not by what she says. First, she only cares about her outside look and external pleasure. She's very sexually, which made Hamlet angry on her. She was even involved in plot of Claudius during his murder plan, and of course she announced everything when Hamlet confronted her: From adultery, to murder. But, as we can see later, all her lies were to protect everyone around her. She could have told the king that Hamlet killed Polonius,  but she lies to him to protect Hamlet. Her love for everyone is big, since she cares about everyone and try to protect them as much as she can, staying loyal and faithful to them. But at the end, she gain her forgiveness for her sensual nature and shallow. But she dies drinking from a poison goblet.

Hope this Helps! :)
