the correct answer to 5 is c
The correct answer  to question number 6 is b. what actually bothers hamlet is his mothers quickness to  get married to claudius. the quote that proves this is when he says "a beast with more discourse of reason would have mourned longer" this means that hamlet thinks that an animal that lost its mate would have mourned over the death longer than his mother. 
The correct answer to question number 7 is c. Laertes warns opheila not to fall in love with hamlet and polonius orders her to stay away from him. the quote that proves this is : "i would not in plain terms, from this time forth, have you slander any omoment leisure, as to give words or talk with the lord hamlet." this quote was said by polonius at the end act 1 scene 4. here he orders her to stay away from hamlet and she bieng inferior has no choice but to obey. your answer  in oncorrect becuase it has not yet  been observed that hamlet in INSANE with grief, he is simply greiving. it is inly after he sees the ghost that he begins to go insane or act insane as he claims to do. 
the correct answer to 8 b. his fatherly advice is to tell him how to act around others. remember he tells him "and this above all to thine ownself be true." 
9 a 
10 c 
I would suggest you actually study before writing a quiz next time,. you preety much failed, all of your answers were wrong
