Answer:

B. Hamlet is aware that he is being watched and that Ophelia is being used to spy on him.

Explanation:

He believes Ophelia is being used as spy in a conspiracy against him.

The scene goes likes this:

In mid-thought, Hamlet sees Ophelia approaching. Having received her orders from Polonius, she tells him that she wishes to return the tokens of love he has given her. Angrily, Hamlet denies having given her anything; he laments the dishonesty of beauty, and claims both to have loved Ophelia once and never to have loved her at all. Bitterly commenting on the wretchedness of humankind, he urges Ophelia to enter a nunnery rather than become a “breeder of sinners”. He criticizes women for making men behave like monsters and for contributing to the world’s dishonesty by painting their faces to appear more beautiful than they are. Working himself into a rage, Hamlet denounces Ophelia, women, and humankind in general, saying that he wishes to end all marriages. As he storms out, Ophelia mourns the “noble mind” that has now lapsed into apparent madness.

The correct answer is B) Hamlet is aware that he is being watched and that Ophelia is being used to spy on him.

Hamlet speaks rudely to Ophelia because she was spying him. She married Hamlet's uncle, Polonius and he used her to spy Hamlet. Polonius wanted control Hamlet because he believed that Hanlet would discover that he had killed his father and he was afraid of that.

If you found a buried treasure chest, what would you most like to discover inside?
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

If I found a buried treasure chest, I would probably discover pictures from the past and childhood videos. Everyone always like collecting things when they are little! I would also most likely find a key to Middle Earth. (I just love LOTR) Another thing I would find is something that can make you travel very fast.(like apparition in Harry Potter) So I do not have to buy air plane tickets and ride on cars for 4 hours. The last thing I would find would be to reverse, stop and speed up time. Everyone would be thrilled to to go back to the past and pause time, then see what is going to happen in the future.

I'm sorry, cause I don't really understand the topic and I hoped this helped!
