What is an example of a soliloquy?

  1. An intense and private inner monologue between an individual and themselves.

  2. A dialogue between two characters in a text.

  3. A speech delivered by the protagonist.

  4. A journey taken by the protagonist.

The correct answer is: An intense and private inner monologue between an individual and themselves.

A soliloquy is defined as an intense and private inner monologue between an individual and themselves. This means that it is a moment in a play or text where a character speaks their thoughts or feelings out loud in the presence of no one else. Option B is incorrect because it refers to a dialogue, which is a conversation between two or more characters. Option C is incorrect because it refers to a speech that is given by the protagonist, which may involve an audience or other characters. Option D is incorrect because it refers to a journey taken by the protagonist, which is an event or action rather than a type of speech or internal monologue. Therefore, only option A accurately describes an example of a soliloquy.
