Answer: 3) The narrator has been insulted many times and now vows revenge against Fortunato.

Explanation: All other options are the result of a poor understanding of the text: in a void, the "thousand injuries of Fortunato" could be understood as injuries that Fortunato has suffered, but the context lets us know it is the other way around as soon as we read "I had borne," which actually means "I have suffered" (borne is the past participle of bear, not of born). To <em>venture upon</em> here means to start doing something new, figuratively coming into a new territory, which, in this context, is injury.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Hamlet's willingness to go with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern into a trap shows that he may be giving up. He knows the consequences he should face for killing Polonius and has not had the strength or courage to act against Claudius yet. It also is a point that he has descended further into a reality of the madness that he has been 'putting on'.

These statements each express different tones. Match each statement with the appropriate tone.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

The correct way of matching each statement with the appropriate tone is the following:

* Angry tone: the adjective “annoying” implies the angry tone of the speaker. (A cell phone can be annoying when you forget to turn on the silent feature before going to sleep)

* Accepting tone: the speaker acknowledges the problem with the battery, yet she/he accepts it by carrying a charger as a solution to it. (The problem is that the battery doesn’t last long, but I don’t mind carrying a charger)

* Objective tone: the speaker is objective by stating only facts about the device. (The cell phone makes calling convenient from all possible locations)

* Sentimental tone: the verb “cherish”, and the noun “gift” imply the sentimental tone of the speaker. (I will always cherish my first cell phone because it was a gift from my dad)

* Optimistic tone: the speaker has an optimistic tone, as she/he speaks about a possible future development. (I think we can soon expect a technology that charges phones in seconds)
