## Step 1The problem asks us to identify two instances where Shakespeare made astronomical references in his writings. We need to analyze each option and determine if it contains any astronomical references.## Step 2Option A: "Romeo and Juliet analyzed the rising Sun." This statement is not accurate. In the play, Romeo and Juliet do not analyze the rising sun. They do, however, reference the moon in their dialogue.## Step 3Option B: "Peter Usher saw a new view of Copernicus." This statement is not accurate. Peter Usher is a character in Edgar Allan Poe's "The Fall of the House of Usher," not a character in any of Shakespeare's plays. Therefore, this statement is not relevant to Shakespeare's writings.## Step 4Option C: "Julius Caesar compared himself to the North Star." This statement is accurate. In Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar," there is a famous line where Caesar says, "I am constant as the northern star." This is a clear astronomical reference.## Step 5Option D: "Characters in Hamlet were shocked to see a ghost." This statement is not accurate. While the appearance of the ghost in "Hamlet" is a supernatural event, it is not an astronomical reference.## Step 6Option E: "Macbeth decided he would take over the throne." This statement is not accurate. Macbeth's ambition to take over the throne is a central theme in the play, but it is not an astronomical reference.## Step 7Based on the analysis, the correct answers are options C and D.
