Answer is( By repeating the same word, Shakespeare shows that Hamlet is not sure of his point.) (option B)

Option B

Explanation:

Hamlet's inablity to take action due to his mind in constant conflict is a reflection of his madness. In a plain in Denmark we can read this soliloquy in the voice of Hamlet after the demonstration of the power of the army at the command of Fortinbras. The repetition of the word great indicates the hesitation of the tragic hero, he is not sure of his point. Despair can be sensed when he refers to a "father killed", "a mother stained" and "the imminent death of twenty thousand men" as a result of his indecisiveness. His reason is in danger.
