1.            Fantastic Reading

 Read the parts from Hamlet monologue. Mind the pronunciation.

«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 heartache, and the thousand natural shocks

That flesh is heir to.

'Tis a consummation

Devoutly to be wished. 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. There's the respect

That makes calamity of so long life.»
