In Scene 1, Act 4 of "Hamlet", Gertrude hast o tell King Claudius that her own son committed a murder. When it comes to whether she seems sincere or not, an example of an opinion is the following:

- Yes, Gertrude seems sincere when she tells Claudius about Hamlet's crime. So much so that she convinces Claudius that Hamlet is mad.

Gertrude is Hamlet's mother. She is present when Hamlet kills Polonius and when he talks to the ghost of his father.

Of course, Gertrude cannot see the ghost. Nor does she understand why Hamlet is acting so strange lately and why he would even kill someone.

Although Hamlet thinks he is just pretending to be crazy, his actions are truly insane. For that reason, his own mother believes him to be mad.

That is why Gertrude seems sincere when she tells Claudius that Hamlet killed Polonius in a fit of insanity. She is sincere because she truly believes her son to be crazy.

Which of these best describes the tone of the wife's lament? A. Contentment B. Longing C. Confusion D. Blitheness
DiKsa [7]
I would say the correct answer is B. longing.
In this poem, the wife is lamenting because she is separated from her husband - for a very long time. She misses her husband and wants to be reunited with him, so she is definitely not content or blithe about her situation (blithe means happy). She is not confused either - she knows that she wants her husband back.

What is direct testing in esl
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

A test is said to be direct when the test actually requires the candidate to demonstrate ability in the skill being sampled. It is a performance test. For example, if we wanted to find out if someone could drive a vehicle, we would test this most effectively by actually asking him to drive the vehicle.
