Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

It is important to state that the original opening scene from Hamlet does not contain the "stage directions" included in this excerpt ("Elsinore, a platform before the castle"); and what is more, there is no explicit allusion to a place before the action actually starts.

Having said that, the correct answer is A because Bernardo asks <em>"Who's there?</em>" and Fransisco returns <em>"Nay, answer me; stand, and unfold yourself"</em> (meaning, you tell me who you are and identify yourself). <u>This interaction can only be possible if it is very late at night, since the characters imply that they can's see each other by asking who is approaching.</u> Once they have identified themselves they talk about to things:

  1. "'Tis now struck twelve; get thee to bed, Fransisco"

="The clock says it's twelve, so go to bed" This is an explicit reference to the time in which this scene takes place, so now we can be certain that it is very late at night.

2.  "it's bitter cold, and I am sick at heart"

= "It's very cold and I feel depressed" This is an explicit reference to the weather being cold.

In 300 words or more, write about how the Declaration of Independence informed the Gettysburg Address that President Abraham Lin
Scilla [17]

The Gettysburg Speech is perhaps the most important speech in US history. This speech was delivered by Lincoln in less than two minutes, at the end of the American civil war. That's because the message he wanted to give was fast, clear and didn't need a lot of arguments, because it was evident that it was true.

Lincoln inspired by the principles of equality defended in the Declaration of Independence of the country, declared the end of the war based on the concept that the country was born to be a country of free people and owners of their own lives, the end of the war allowed freedom be offered to everyone, as the founding fathers wanted and fought for it. Thus, Lincoln established that the end of the war would bring a nation united in recovery and truly free.
