Answer:

The options:

brave, authoritative, kind, compassionate, nervous, defensive shrewd, devious

The CORRECT ANSWER IS

nervous, defensive

Explanation:

Gertrude is a tough character to decode, due to little or no dialogue as expressed by the character. For a large part, she is observed to be passive, and submit to the instructions of her husband. Moving into Act IV, at some point, we can acknowledge that she is beginning to have some kind of repentant and guilty feeling on how her marriage is going, which prompts her to take on a defensive means. Along the line, both when she encountered Claudius follwing Hamlet assassination of Polonius, and when she saw the mental illness of Ophelia, she becomes nervous, and not clear of how to act and her next course of action.

If I have an assignment due by January 3rd, can I still work on it on January 3rd or will it not let me work on it anymore when

Since you provided a time, I am taking a guess that it's online and the teacher or professor should usually give you a time that officially marks when it's due on January 3rd. If not, you could turn it in on January 3rd anytime, but not after 12:00 a.m. which would make it January 4th. I hope this makes since.
