Read the passage from Hamlet, Act I, Scene iii. Polonius: Beware
Of entrance to a quarrel, but, being in,
Bear ’t that th’ opposed may beware of thee.
Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice;
Take each man’s censure, but reserve thy judgment.
Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy,
But not express’d in fancy; rich, not gaudy ...

Shakespeare’s word choice in the passage creates a tone that is

argumentative.
cautious.
conceited.
nervous.

Cautious

Explanation:

Polonius is saying beware and warning Hamlet of danger yet o come. i also am taking the test too :)

based on the biblical principle proverbs 16: 32, i agree with the author of the passage "better is it that it takes longer to be angry than the strong " to the extent that i share the philosophy that the nobility of heart demonstrates the strength of a person. those who are very proud, get angry easily and show their anger toward others are really weak, but those who are noble and do not constantly obfuscate or contain their feelings of anger, are strong people

the answer is fantasy
