Answer:
The option that contains the objective summary of "forgiveness triumphs" theme is:
B. The scene where Laertes asks forgiveness helps demonstrate that forgiveness can be more powerful than revenge.
Explanation:
<em>Exchange forgiveness with me, noble Hamlet:
</em>
<em>Mine and my father's death come not upon thee,
</em>
<em>Nor thine on me! [Dies.]
</em>
<em>Hamlet: Heaven make thee free of it! I follow thee.
</em>
<em>I am dead, Horatio.
</em>
-Hamlet,William Shakespeare
<u>Laertes seeks revenge for his father's and sister's deaths, for which he blames Hamlet. However, once they are both poisoned and about to die, Laertes realizes the futility of revenge. Death conquers all. Killing someone only brings more tragedy and suffering onto oneself and others. That is why Laertes asks Hamlet to "exchange forgiveness" with him: so that they can both be free from the deadly ropes of revenge and resentment.</u>

Answer:
The correct answer is Both Brutus and Antony ask rhetorical questions to make points.
Explanation:
<em>The following are the reasons why the other three alternatives are incorrect:</em>
- While both Brutus and Antony have the word ambitious as a key word of their speeches, they also use the word in the same meaning (i.e., greedy for power).
- None of the two speakers focuses only in Caesar's weaknesses. Actually, both tend to emphasize his strong points more.
- Both speakers speak directly to the crowd, and both their speeches are in front of a crowd, even in theatrical renditions.
The most dominant part of both of their speeches are rhetorical questions. Brutus uses rhetorical questions to persuade the crowd into believing he killed Caesar for their own good, while Antony uses rhetorical questions to prove Caesar was not ambitious.
