English

Answer:

A) Symbolism

Explanation:

Symbolism is a literary device in which objects have a meaning that is different from their original meaning or function. These objects become symbols from something else.

To salute the flag means to use a gesture to show respect and love for it. However, someone who salutes the flag doesn't salute the flag itself. A flag can be just an object, but here, it is a symbol for something else - for our country. It turns out that someone who is saluting the flag is actually saluting their own country, showing their love and respect for it.

Read the dialogue from Act III of Hamlet. Hamlet: Now, mother, what’s the matter? Gertrude: Hamlet, thou hast thy father much of
Oxana [17]

The correct answer is Queen Gertrude is caught between her new husband and her son.

B is definitely incorrect because his father is dead so he cannot observe his conversation; C is incorrect because Gertrude believes Hamlet should blindly follow what Claudius has to say; D is incorrect because Hamlet hates Claudius.

This leaves us with sentence A - Gertrude has just lost her husband but she remarried immediately. Now, she is torn between her son whom she loves, and her new husband, who she feels she should obey.
