Read the excerpt from act ii of hamlet. king: welcome, dear rosencrantz and guildenstern! moreover that we much did long to see you, which adaptation best maintains the original meaning and tone of the underlined part of the excerpt? we were not sure when we would see you we are pretty glad to see you we did not expect to see you so soon we have been waiting to see you

The adaption „we did not expect to see you so soon” best mantains the original meaning and tone of the excerpt. This can be notice when the King uses the word did between much and long, it gives the idea that it was kinda of a suprise their visit.

The answer is actually letter D) we have been waiting to see you.

Explanation:

To be more literal in our translation than the options provided, "Moreover that we much did long to see you" means "Not only have we been waiting (or wanting) to see you". In this part of the play, the King is explaining why he sent for Rosencratz and Guildenstern: not only because they wanted to see them, but also because they needed their help. The option that offers a closer adaptation to that is letter D) we have been waiting to see you.
