Now he is married to my wife and wears my crown.” As the ghost began to fade, it cried, “Avengeu me!” Prince Hamlet pretended 2 to be crazy so King Claudius wouldn’t suspect that Hamlet knew the truth. The prince wanted revenge, but first

Convinced now that Claudius was guilty, Hamlet was determined 1 to kill him. Before he could act, the queen asked to see Hamlet. Polonius hid behind a curtain in the queen’s room so he could 05
hear what they were saying. “You shouldn’t have been disloyalu to my father!” Hamlet shouted at his mother. While they argued, Hamlet heard a noise from behind the curtain. Thinking it was Claudius, Hamlet stabbed2 the curtain with his sword3 and killed Polonius by mistake.

Polonius’s daughter, Ophelia, was driven mad by her grief,4 and she drowned herself in a river. Fearing for his own safety, Claudius sent Hamlet to England. He arranged secretly for the King of England to kill Prince Hamlet. However, Hamlet’s ship was attacked by

pirates, and the prince managed to escape and return to Denmark. Polonius’s son, Laertes, was studying in France. When he heard the news of his father’s and sister’s deaths, he immediately5 returned to Denmark. Around the same time, King Claudius learned that Hamlet was back in the country. The

Claudius convinced Laertes to put poison on his sword and challenge1 Hamlet to a fencing match. “Just scratch2 Hamlet with your blade, and the poison will kill him,” said Claudius. As a backupu plan, Claudius also poisoned a glass of wine. He would give Hamlet the deadly drink if the 05
prince won the fencing match. Claudius arranged the fencing challenge, and he and the queen were the audience. Hamlet scored the first hit but declined Claudius’s drink. The †
queen was proud of her son’s fencing, so she toasted Hamlet and drank deeply from the poisoned cup. Within moments, she was dead. 10
Distracted by his mother’s death, Hamlet was wounded by Laertes, but the poison was slow. They continued to fight and accidentally3 switched4 swords. Hamlet finally wounded Laertes with the poisoned sword. “Claudius is responsible for the queen’s death,” confessed Laertes just before dying. “He put poison in the glass.” Hamlet angrily turned
15
on Claudius and stabbed him. He then forced his evil uncle to drink the rest of the poisoned wine. Having avenged his father, Hamlet died. By pursuing power and revenge, the royal house of Denmark came to a bloody5 end.

Out of 100 students tested, those who got the highest creativity scores usually 05
