Answer:

The author contrasts words with positive and negative connotations in order to encourage exchange of views.

Explanation:

The author uses positive and negative connotations in this passage so as to show the two sides of his debate. Here, the two connotations are used together in the passage above to encourage argument.

Connotations usually suggest a meaning, by a word/words apart from the thing it explicitly names or describes.

Positive connotations have positive meanings while negative connotations have negative meanings.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Claudius directs Gertrude to try to learn the cause of Hamlet’s odd behavior; they suspect it is the old king’s

death and their own recent marriage. Meantime, Claudius and Polonius eavesdrop on Ophelia and Hamlet,

who spurns her and appears mad. The King reveals to Polonius his plan to send Hamlet to England with

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.

Hamlet seizes the opportunity presented by a traveling troupe of players to expose the King’s guilt with a

“play within a play.” Soon after, Hamlet delays killing Claudius because the King is at prayer, and Hamlet

does not wish to send him to heaven instead of hell. When Gertrude meets with Hamlet as Claudius has

directed, Polonius hides behind the arras in Gertrude’s room to eavesdrop on the conversation. Hamlet,

suspecting the interloper is Claudius, stabs and kills Polonius.
