1. desire for revenge = B. Hamlet
Hamlet's father, the king, died suddenly and initially everybody thought he died of natural causes. However, the king's ghost appeared before Hamlet to inform him that he in fact was murdered. Hamlet spends the rest of the play trying to figure out who killed his father, or rather to get a conformation from Claudius, the king's own brother. Claudius killed the king in order to later marry his wife and become the next king of Denmark, which is why obviously Hamlet wanted to revenge his father.

2. respect for her father = C. Ophelia
Ophelia is Hamlet's love interest - they were always together since they were kids, and it is indicated that they will get married at one point. However, that was before the king was killed. After his death, Hamlet went a little mad wanting to get his revenge, and Ophelia went literally crazy after realizing that Hamlet doesn't really care about her, which is why she committed suicide. While she was alive though, she always listened to her father and did whatever he told her to.

3. guilt = D. Claudius
I wouldn't really say that this is the main attribute that characterizes Claudius, but it is the most correct among these options. Claudius murdered his own brother in order to marry his wife and become king of Denmark. He poisoned him, hoping that everyone would think he died of natural causes. However, there is one scene in the play when Claudius shows remorse for what he did, but in the end, he says that there was nothing else he could have done and that it is too late now to feel guilt.

4. mixed loyalties = A. Gertrude
On one hand, Gertrude feels that she should be loyal to Hamlet and her late husband, but on the other hand, she remarried, so obviously she should also be devoted to her new husband, Claudius. This is creating a tear in Gertrude's character, not knowing who to side with, given that her son and her new husband really hate each other and ultimately try and succeed to kill each other at the end of the play, when everyone apart from Horatio dies.

Answer from: Quest

the first proposition is to question economic materialism and victorian christianity. the lines are:

“it moves us not.—great god! i'd rather be

a pagan suckled in a creed outworn; ”

wordsworth is stating that nature no longer interests mankind, that the latter is not “moved” by it and explains that ancient western paganism had a more positive attitude concerning nature since it lacked the perv erted judaeo-christian interpretation of having received the world and all its animals and elements from god to use as we , instead of humans actually being not only part of nature but its wardens, meant to appreciate it and protect it.

the next lines are:

“so might i, standing on this pleasant lea,

have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;

have sight of proteus coming from the sea;

or hear old triton blow his wreathed horn.”

wordsworth here make it very clear that by actually looking and contemplating nature, human beings would reconnect with happiness, serenity and purpose. the use of mythological figures is quite evocative as well, proteus is a greek mythological god of the changing sea. he personifies the sea that changes, which symbolizes the way nature changes and inevitably can change to be destructive not only due to natural causes but to human pollution. furthermore, the sea is even more symbolic since all life originated in the sea so it is not only our past but our future since no life form in our planet can survive without water and if all water is destroyed in earth all life will be gone as well.

he then uses triton which is symbolic of the synthesis of both nature and mankind. triton is a mythological greek god that has the upper body of a man and the lower body of a fish (a merman). this human fish duality evokes the fact that humans are not only human but also part of nature, the fish tail representing nature. the main attribute of this god was that he used a conch shell as a horn to calm the roaring seas. in other words, triton uses nature through science for the benefit of human sailors who risk death during tempests. with the use of such metaphor, wordworth is conveying the message that human technology is supposed to use nature to preserve nature and thereby humanity as well.
