The answer is A: predict.
Multiple choice questions tend to be intricate and, in most cases, at least two of the options are either semantically or meaningfully very close, so that choosing between them is the real test —if one can choose the right answer from those two options that are so close to each other, and amongst all options in general, then the student proves he or she has grasped the sense of the question. That is why, predicting the answer can assist the student in choosing the right answer by either confirming his prediction or testing it in order to come up with the right option.
Her success and what she is best known for are the main topics of the paragraph. So, Answer A would be your best bet. It covers all of those points.
The advice that Ophelia receives from her brother Laertes is extremely different from the advice her father Polonius gives her. Laertes gently reminds Ophelia that Hamlet might really love her, but since he is in line for the throne he and might not actually be able to choose his wife for himself. He warns her to keep her affection "Out of the shot and danger of desire," meaning to not give in to her desires, otherwise she might ruin herself for future potential husbands. Polonius' advice is a little bit more aggressive. He scolds Ophelia for giving Hamlet too much attention, and says that there is no way Hamlet actually loves her. He says that his vows she "<span>must not take for fire", meaning she should not take his words for true passion. The overall difference between Laertes and Polonius is that Laertes is much gentler, and believes Hamlet might actually have feelings for her right now, and Polonius is putting more blame on Ophelia, saying there is no way Hamlet actually likes her.
