You are alone in the woods. you hear a noise. you think you see a bear coming toward you. your heart starts pounding and, at the same time, you realize you are afraid. this sequence of events is best explained by which theory of emotion?

The correct answer is the Cannon-Bard theory of emotion.

According to the Cannon-Bard theory of emotion, emotional responses result when you experience both both cognitive interpretations or emotions to situations, as well as bodily or physiological responses simultaneously. In this instance, you feel afraid or fearful because you simultaneously experience physiological responses (heart racing) as well as thoughts and emotions of fear, both at the same time when you see the bear. 

Hamlet's fourth soliloquy is probably his most famous one - "to be or not to be."it is rather different from his previous soliloquies because now he is contemplating something that didn't come up before - suicide. he is thinking whether it is worth it to fight to find his father's murderer when in the end all of them are going to die, so why not die sooner than later. he is contemplating if he should go on fighting or just kill himself and end it all, which is why this soliloquy in particular is rather depressing, hesitant, and gives a deeper insight into hamlet's madness.
