Answer:

"This dark assertion will be illuminated later on" is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The Gift of the Magi is a short story written by O. Henry, first published in 1905. It's the story of a couple that deals with their economic situation and their struggles to buy each others Christmas gifts.

In the answer, the speaker uses a future tense, used to express actions in the future, and it has three auxiliaries, may, won't, and will. May expresses uncertainty; won't indicates negative actions, and will expresses certainty in the future, so it is the correct answer.

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! :)
