Answer:
Hamlet compares two portraits of King Hamlet and his brother, the present king and new husband of Gertrude, Claudius.
The conversation led to greater enmity or discord between the mother and son and also led to the death of Polonius who was eavesdropping on the two. Moreover, the encounter also led Gertrude to believe that her son is adamantly against his new step-father and also insane.
Explanation:
William Shakespeare's "Hamlet" revolves around the young prince Hamlet and his desire to avenge the death of his father, the King at the hands of his uncle, who at present is the husband of his mother. The tragic play deals with themes of betrayal, greed, power, love, marriage, etc.
In Act III scene iv, Hamlet and his mother Gertrude are seen arguing about how he has behaved rudely to his new step-father, his uncle Claudius. Queen Gertrude reprimands her son and tells him to not act so against the new king. But Hamlet refuses, instead he points out the 'flaws' of his mother, telling her that she'd 'polluted' the marriage bed of her first husband, that of King Hamlet. During the conversation, Hamlet strikes Polonius who was hiding behind a curtain to spy on Hamlet. He was killed, which Hamlet had wished was the new king Claudius instead.
Hamlet uses a comparison between the two portraits to show the 'outrageous action' that Gertrude had done. He praises his father, the dead king's picture, stating "Hyperion’s curls, the front of Jove himself,
An eye like Mars to threaten and command,
A station like the herald Mercury
New-lighted on a heaven-kissing hill—
A combination and a form indeed
Where every god did seem to set his seal".
Whereas, for the current king, he is not too appealing in the eyes of the young prince
"a mildewed ear
Blasting his wholesome brother
Have you eyes?
Could you on this fair mountain leave to feed
And batten on this moor?"
The conversation between the mother-son duo led to the death of Polonius and also showed Gertrude to believe that Hamlet has gone insane. The ghost of King Hamlet appears but only Hamlet saw him while the queen cannot, leading her to believe that her son is indeed insane.
The first train took twenty-six minutes to complete the route, which ran from City Hall to West 145th Street in under a half an hour.
A. NO CHANGE
B. in the completion of its route.
C. in twenty-six minutes.
D. DELETE the underlined portion and end the sentence with a period.
Answer: D
Explanation: You first have to realize that 26 minutes is the same thing as "under a than half-hour." Once you see this, you know that the question is testing editing out repetition.
The original (answer A) doesn’t work, since it’s repeating the route length already described in the beginning of the sentence. Answer C has the same problem – it’s repeating the route time exactly as already expressed. Answer B takes one type of redundancy and replaces it with another since it’s just a variant of the words “to complete the route” already in the sentence.
So, the only answer that fixes all the redundancies is D.

Which is better virtual school or face to face school? please put an explanation!
Answer:
I would say I'm qualified to answer as I've done both.
It's very dependant on the person. Some people go to virtual school because of limitations like mental illness.
Virtual school is slightly more flexible in terms of due dates and deadlines, and can be acessed anywhere or at any time of day. There are more electives and clubs, and plenty of college resources.
The downside of Virtual school is that it can be very isolating. You don't leave the house or see people in person, and that can be depressing. Because you don't leave the house for school there can be a weird sense of monotony. There is no division between home and school, and that really sucks.
__________________________________________________________
The benefits of face to face schools have to do more with social interaction. You can exchange smiles with people and build friendships. You are developing people skills there. You learn how to work with people, and how to deal with negativity and sucky people.
There is the obvious downside of bullying, which is often the reason people leave face to face school. You can't really reach your teachers after hours, which can be limiting in terms of getting assignment help. There is the cursed science fair, and in person PE classes, and locker rooms and the like.

How do advertisers get around telling the truth in their advertisements?

Advertising is omnipresent and inescapable in today's world. It is claimed that an average person is exposed to 2000 advertisements every day. ... Many advertisements tend to tell “partial truth” about their products, which equates to false information that would mislead viewers.

Answer: "Books allow us to hold multiple points of view in our mind at the same time.

I wish my mom had asked me what I wanted before making the decision to move.
TEXT: The following is a student draft. It may contain errors.
Two weeks before I started high school, my mother announced we would be moving . . . to an entirely different city, halfway across the country! Needless to say, I was horrified. I had already arranged for a way to avoid taking the bus carpooling with my friend Kwe and had signed up for all my classes and extracurricular activities. I was certain this new school wouldn't have nearly as many options, and I knew there was no way I was going to be able to set up a new carpool with only a few days to meet new people.
I would be moving away. I wondered, what would this new city be like; what would the people be like; what would people do with their time? I just couldn't fathom a life outside of the one I knew and so I began to worry about whether I would be able to fit in.
These were the thoughts that haunted me for the next fourteen days, as we packed all our possessions and loaded them into the moving truck; as we drove two thousand miles across the country; as we settled into our new apartment; and then, as I stood staring at the massive glass doors that led into the new school I would begin the next day. But as I stood there, hesitant to take another step into this unknown world, I realized something: things are never as bad as I think they will be.
Answer:
A.
And so, I decided to stop worrying and start looking forward to the adventure that awaited me.
Explanation:
According to the given narrative, the author talks about his horror at finding out from his mother that they would be moving to a new city. He was terrified about whether he would fit in and if he would be able to make new friends at his new school. He thought and pondered about this for the next fourteen days, but when they finally moved, he found out things were not as bad as he thought.
Therefore, the best resolution for the narrative is "And so, I decided to stop worrying and start looking forward to the adventure that awaited me."
