Asap in “the pit and the pendulum”, the narrator explains, “the intensity of the darkness seem to oppress and stifle me.” why does this poe include this description of the narrator‘s feelings about the darkness? a- by having the narrator focus on the intensity of the darkness, poe effectively directs the attention of readers away from the dangers that lurk within the darkness and lays the groundwork for the stories surprise ending. b- by having the narrator describe how something as ordinary as darkness bothers him, poe is able to establish the narrator as an unreliable figure who is prone to exaggerations and lies. c- by having the narrator focus on his own feelings of being oppressed and stifled, poe establishes the idea that the real danger that the narrator faces exists only in the narrators mind. d- by having the narrator describe the darkness as a force that has a physical impact on him, poe create a claustrophobic mood and a sense of the narrators great fear and discomfort.

The answer would be D :)

"everyday

use" was written by alice walker. this is a story about two sisters, dee

and maggie wanting to have the handmade quilt. maggie wants to use the thing

for its purpose, while dee appreciates it for being “her heritage”.   the quilt represents family heritage. it was

believed that only dedication and years of hard work can represent a  quilt. 

mama decided to give

the quilts to her less fortunate daughter, maggie because she believed that dee

could not hold the true meaning of their family heritage and   that she would not use the quilts for their

purpose. however, dee believed that maggie can’t appreciate the quilts just as

how she sees them, and she thought that the quilt will be put to “everyday use”

by maggie and within 5 years or so, the quilt will turn into a rag. in the story, dee strongly believed that maggie do not deserve the quilts.

explanation:

have a great day!

the answer is most likely c. it shows us that the rules that the pigs make can change on a whim whenever it suits the pigs purpose.

hope this
