Answer:

C). 'Gertrude is critical of her son's continued mourning and urges him to move on.'

Explanation:

In the given passage from one of the most acknowledged tragedies of Shakespeare i.e. 'Hamlet'(Act I, scene II), option C appropriately characterizes Gertrude as she was 'critical of her son's constant mourning over the death of his noble father and urges him to move on in life'. <u>This characterization is exemplified through her statement when she says 'cast thy nighted colour off' and 'let thine eye look like a friend on Denmark'.</u> Hamlet's mother is highly concerned towards him and therefore, requests him to stop putting on those black clothes in remembrance of his father as it is nature's cycle('one who lives ultimately dies') and suggests him to move forward in life. Therefore, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

What is a theme for the novel "Sink or Swim" by Steve Watkins
sergiy2304 [10]
It has been a month since the bombing of Pearl Harbor. America is officially at war with Germany and Japan, and everyone wants to do their part. In twelve-year-old Colton's case, that means stepping up at home once his older brother, Danny, ships out with the navy. But before Danny leaves for boot camp, the brothers are fishing on the Atlantic Ocean when Danny's boat is capsized by a Nazi U-boat, nearly killing him.

When more U-boats start attacking the next day, Colton realizes just how close the enemy is to American shores. With Danny's life in the balance, Colton does the only thing he can think of to help his family and his country: He steals his brother's enlisting papers and joins up instead.

Colton's bold decision leads to a deadly journey. Even if he can keep his age a secret and survive boot camp, he'll have to face Hitler's ruthless submarines. Only the longer he's on the seas, the less sure Colton is that he and his shipmates can stop such a relentless enemy.
