The topic of the passage is a duel between Laertes and Hamlet.

The King Claudius has bet that Hamlet can beat Laertes in a duel. Hamlet has killed Polonius unintenionally, so Laertes is wiling to fight with him in order to avenge the death of his father. Meanwhile, it is a good opportunity for Claudius to eliminate Hamlet, who suspects he has murdered his father to become king and marry his mother.

kiruha [24]

Answer:

C). Nature is beautiful, calming, and inspiring.

Explanation:

Thoreau's "Solitude" primarily throws light upon the idea of 'solitude or isolation' actually being an opportunity where one can experience self-communion and contemplation/introspection.'

In this excerpt, Thoreau discusses a 'delicious evening' which he spent in the lap of nature, 'a part of herself.' He considers the nature to be 'beautiful, soothing, and inspiring' as reflected by the descriptions 'elements are unusually congenial to me', 'bullfrogs usher in the night...water', 'pleasantest hours', 'ssothed by seaseless roar', 'twililight usher..', 'tempted' , etc. reflect that how he is in union with the every bit of nature and thus, questions 'why should I feel lonely.' This justifies the above deduction and hence, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
