We are expected to fill in the blanks. Find the missing words below:
- 1. In a traditional wedding, the person performing the ceremony is often wordy, while the bride and groom are very, <u>concise </u>saying just "I do."
- 2. When he saw no way to <u>avert</u> the plane crash, the pilot parachuted to safety.
- 3. People often take <u>drastic</u> steps in anger and later regret their extreme actions.
- 4. The drummer told interesting <u>anecdotes</u> about famous rock singers he had played with.
- 5. Because Frank seems so <u>candid</u>, everyone believes him even when he tells a lie.
- 6. In most American schools, it is not<u> appropriate</u> for students to call their teachers by their first names.
- 7. When the real murderer confessed, the police had to <u>acknowledge </u>that the wrong man had been jailed.
- 8. To earn money for college, Lonnie felt he had to either join the army or get a job. He didn't like either<u> alternative.</u>
- 9. A couple of older boys tried to <u>compel </u>some first-graders to hand over their lunch money.
- 10. Any player who does not <u>comply</u> with the rules will be dropped from the team.
To choose the best word that completes a sentence, the context of the sentence provides a vital hint. For example in Sentence 8 where two things are being compared, 'alternative' is the best word because it means one of two or more things.
In sentence 9 also, we can deduce that the first-graders were being bullied. So they were being compelled or forced to do something they did not want.
When this reasoning is followed, we can complete the remaining blanks.

Answer:
option 1 seems like the best choice
Explanation:
The 1st scene happens in the middle of the night, on the dark and windy castle wall. The guards are freezing with cold and trembling with fear, as there's a Ghost who appears and wants to say something.
On the other hand, the 2nd scene happens at court, where all the courtiers are present, along with the queen and the new king Claudius. Although the former king has recently passed out (or murdered, as the reader will find out later), everybody is serene and optimistic. Only the melancholic prince Hamlet is missing.
The two settings are juxtaposed with a context that binds them together (adding to the contrast, at the same time): everybody is well aware of the strange and sudden circumstances of the old king's death. The 1st scene is spooky because of his Ghost who seeks young Hamlet. The 2nd scene leaves a bitter taste because his funeral has been followed by a wedding all too soon.
