Answer:
Laertes resolves to act and get revenge immediately for his father while Hamlet cannot decide or act.
Explanation:
Laertes and Hamlet have one thing in common:<u> they both lose their fathers </u>in the play. However, <u>their reaction is very different</u>. Hamlet, even after the confirmation of the ghost of his father, he hesitates and thinks a lot about who is to blame, and what he should do about it. Whereas Laertes, as soon as he finds out about the death of his father he decides to revenge and he actually does something.
In Act 4 Scene 5 Lines 109-110, Laertes enters Elsinore Castle decided to kill whoever killed his father, he is resolved to act:

Answer:
<em>The period in which Queen Elizabeth I ruled over England is called Elizabethan Era.</em> This period is famous for its interesting and new cultures, traditions, inventions etc.
During this era a great deal of stress was made on education for boys and girls of upper-class families, this was a huge similarity between Elizabethan culture and American culture up until the civil rights movement, the dynamics of education given to the general public completely changed. Along with this, the emphasis on respecting parents, table manners, initial education of a child at home are some of the major similarities between the two.
When it comes to items of daily use we will find plenty of similar things like telescope, pocket watch, bottled beer, thermometer, frozen chicken etc. But only these are now made more perfect and advanced.
Another huge similarity which still exists today is littering of streets and infestation of rodents or fleas everywhere.
Also people of different social statuses were seen eating different things which is a culture we see till today. Lower and middle class people are deprived of many healthy fruits, nuts etc.

In Narayan's story, Sekhar is a schoolteacher who considers how difficult it is to face truth in daily life. He hypothesizes that truth can negatively affect the health of personal relationships.
However, he decides to set aside a day to tell the truth, no matter what the consequences are. His theory is that truth is the essence of a good life. His first test comes when his wife asks him his opinion about one of her masterpiece dishes. He answers that the dish tastes terrible and that he is unable to eat more of it. The second test comes when his colleague opines about a "fine man" who has just passed away. Sekhar blurts out that the man was a rather mean and selfish character when he lived.
The final test comes when the headmaster of Sekhar's school demands to know Sekhar's unbiased opinion about his singing. In return, he promises Sekhar that he will have ten days to correct his students' papers, totaling a hundred in all. Since Sekhar is a well-known music critic, the headmaster feels that he will be more likely to receive an informed judgment. However, the headmaster's singing is dreadful, and Sekhar is forced to tell him so.
The next day, the headmaster thanks Sekhar for his courage; he believes that the truth has saved him from wasting his money on further music lessons. However, he demands that Sekhar turn in the corrected test papers the next day. For his part, Sekhar regards the new ultimatum a small price to pay for the luxury of telling the truth.

This story by R. K. Narayan features Sekhar, who is a teacher with a belief that just as people avoid staring at the sun, likewise people avoid confronting the truth. He recognises that people deliberately alter what they say to avoid hurting or shocking others. To prove his point and as an experiment, he decides to speak and receive only the truth for one day, no matter what the consequences might be. He starts the day as he means to continue by telling his wife precisely what he thinks of her cooking (foolish man!), and then gives his opinion of someone who has just died. Then his headmaster, his boss, who has spent lots of money on music lessons, asks his opinion of his singing. Sekhar is an authority on musical matters and the headmaster's performance is terrible, and Sekhar tells him so. The next day, nervous about how he will respond, Sekhar is surprised to be thanked by his headmaster for telling the truth, but he gives Sekhar one hundred papers to mark in a single night. Sekhar feels that "sitting up all night with a hundred test papers was a small price to pay for the luxury of practicing Truth."
