Question

Which of these adaptations of the excerpt is most likely to

portray Hamlet as worried and thoughtful?
Read the excerpt from Act Ill of Hamlet
Hamlet To be or not to be that is the question
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die to sleep
No more; and, by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep.
To sleep perchance to dream ay, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil
Must give us pause.

Answer 2

The actor playing Hamlet speaks slowly and deliberately, weighing the meaning of every word as he

goes along.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using gestures, different tone, face mimic, dramatic pause and other means of nonverbal communication help conveying message more successfully and with more details.

Different emotions are portrayed differently; singing lines, delivering them melodically usually depict joy and happines, shouting and using vast array of gestures suggest anger, crying, speaking silently and voice shaking suggest sadness.

Finally, speaking slowly, carefully, with great precaution usually mean some great dilemma, inner conflict or worry, such as in this case.
