Which evidence from the text best supports the idea that malcolm and donalbain believe they need to flee scotland before someone tries to murder them too?

The line: where we are/There's daggers in men's smiles: the near in blood/  The nearer bloody supports the idea that Malcolm and Donalbain believe they need to flee Scotland before someone ties to murder them, too.

Explanation:

Macbeth is determined to come to the throne, and goes after anyone who stands on his way. Together with his wife, he plots king Duncan's murder.

In Act II, Scene III, Malcolm and Donalbain decide to flee Scotland. As their father, king Duncan, has been murdered, they are afraid that the same might happen to them, too. Donalbain argues that people will smile at them while hiding knives, and that they should beware their relatives, as they are most likely to try to kill them.

The answer is D. Where we are,/ There's daggers in men's smiles: the near in blood, / The nearer bloody.

In this line in Macbeth (Act II, Scene III),  Donalbain tells Malcolm that wherever they go, people will smile at them while having knives (daggers) hidden. He also states during the same conversation that even their closest relatives represent a threat and could murder them. Malcolm and him realize that they are in danger and they need to flee Scotland.

The option that best fits the question is "C"

Explanation:

This murderous shaft that's shot / Hath not yet lighted, and our safest way / Is to avoid the aim.

This murderous shaft that's shot / Hath not yet lighted, and our safest way / Is to avoid the aim.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's tragedy play "Hamlet" tells the story of a one man's greed for power which led him to kill anyone who's deemed an obstacle for his attaining of the throne. Hamlet may have been a good man before but the prophecy of the three witches had made him single minded for his own greed.

The characters of Malcolm and Donalbain are the sons of the slain King Duncan. Scared that they might be the next target, for they were princes, they decided to flee to Ireland and England separately.

The excerpt in the question is from Act II scene iii of the play where the brothers had decided at once to flee from the country. Malcolm suggested that they go out before anything happen to them, for though they hadn't encountered the danger, they should try to avoid it as soon as they can. Their decision can be seen in the lines "This murderous shaft that's shot / Hath not yet lighted, and our safest way / Is to avoid the aim", for they believe that even their lives may be in danger for being heirs to the throne.
