The plot point that is described per Katelyn's views is exposition. Therefore, option (ii) or (b) is the correct answer.
<h3>What is exposition?</h3>
Exposition texts typically start with an opening statement of position that expresses the author's viewpoint or opinion. An expository section is used to impart knowledge and provide an unbiased explanation.
In order to accomplish this, authors typically write in the third person and refrain from using pronouns like I or you. Expository passages can be used to show cause and effect, compare and contrast, or inform.
An expository paragraph attempts to explain a subject or situation, as opposed to a descriptive paragraph's goal of describing a subject and a narrative paragraph's goal of illustrating personal development.
Expository paragraphs are therefore written to appear as though the author is explaining or defining a subject to the reader. Therefore, option (b) or (ii) is the correct answer.

This excerpt doesn't tell us that Ophelia's words are disregarded in the play. It only tells us that the Gentleman wants to disregard them, as well as all the parties involved in her breakdown as a character, including Gertrude, Claudius, and Hamlet himself. By achieving this kind of conflict between Ophelia's words and the way others perceive/disregard them, Shakespeare wants to convey the fact that Ophelia has been used for other people's purposes. Hamlet used her as a part of his ploy; her own father and brother used her to suit their own interests as well. She is merely a puppet of other people's plans; but her character is so much more than that, and that's why she goes mad. She just can't bear the amount of negligence she endures - and not because she is a fragile person (being a woman), but because she just wants to be treated equally. Polonius warns her that Hamlet would use her, but he also does precisely that - uses her for his own purpose, forbidding her to continue the relationship.
In contemporary culture, women's words have become louder, but it doesn't mean they are heard and understood properly. Women have to invest twice as much effort as men if they want not to be disregarded as the "fairer sex" (to use a phrase from Shakespeare's time, which has survived to this day), or as individuals who have nothing important to say. Even in many political campaigns that propagate themselves to protect women's rights, women are used as a tool for different purposes - popularization of one political option or another. Although women have been fighting for more than two centuries for their right to be treated equally, the fight isn't nearly over.
