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.

Answer:

But the rose-colour swiftly faded." I emphasize with this phrase/quote as it symbolises  that the warmth of the colour rose was fading away, which shows that something dreadful had occured for this to happen. The verb "swiftly" means quickly showing a quite similarity of someones life ending. Comparing to the rest of the extract this phrase shows how the sky was drained out of its colour. This phrase implies the sky is slowly loosing its happy touch which gives off some sort of hope to the reader.

A verbal phrase consists of a verbal and a modifier or any object. Verbal is the term used to define a verb form that does not function as a verb in a sentence. Instead it functions as a noun, adjective, or adverb.

Three types of verbal phrase

Gerund phrase - consists of a gerund (-ing) and a modifier or object. Functions as a noun and can be a subject, subject complement, object, or appositive int he sentence.

Infinitive phrase - begins with an infinitive and is followed by an object or modifier. It almost always begin with "to" and is followed by the verb.

Participial phrase - always functions as an adjective in the sentence; consists of past or present participle with any object or modifier.
