Answer:
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
It is important to state that the original opening scene from Hamlet does not contain the "stage directions" included in this excerpt ("Elsinore, a platform before the castle"); and what is more, there is no explicit allusion to a place before the action actually starts.
Having said that, the correct answer is A because Bernardo asks <em>"Who's there?</em>" and Fransisco returns <em>"Nay, answer me; stand, and unfold yourself"</em> (meaning, you tell me who you are and identify yourself). <u>This interaction can only be possible if it is very late at night, since the characters imply that they can's see each other by asking who is approaching.</u> Once they have identified themselves they talk about to things:
- "'Tis now struck twelve; get thee to bed, Fransisco"
="The clock says it's twelve, so go to bed" This is an explicit reference to the time in which this scene takes place, so now we can be certain that it is very late at night.
2. "it's bitter cold, and I am sick at heart"
= "It's very cold and I feel depressed" This is an explicit reference to the weather being cold.
Answer: The right answer is A) Mercutio’s death.
Explanation: In this excerpt, the moribund yet still witty Mercutio is announcing Romeo his imminent death, as he has been stabbed by Tybalt in order to defend Romeo's honor. His wound, he says, is neither deep like a well nor wide like the door of a church, but "enough" to end with his life. He then curses the two families for their disagreements, fiercely criticizes Tybalt for having attacked him, and for how he has done it, and finally reprimands Romeo for having gotten in the way.
A. Because B doesn't need "...", C shouldn't have "-" and it should have a "," after Lupita, and D shouldn't have "..." either.

No, they are not equivalent fractions. 200/100 is an improper fraction, meaning that the numerator(or the top number) is larger than the denominator(the bottom number). 1/5 is a normal, simplified fraction...200/100 at its simplest is 2/1. Therefore, like I said before, they are not equivalent
