The following question refers to “the pit and the pendulum” by edgar allan poe. of the following aspects of the story, which one is based on exaggeration rather than historical accuracy? the elaborate tortures the french leader, general lasalle the location of toledo, spain the spanish inquisition

I'm pretty sure the answer would be the elaborate tortures.

faith or loyalty when pledged in a solemn agreement or undertaking.

the correct answer is a "it describes nora and mrs. linde's relationship". opcions b and d are not related to the content of the passage in any way. option c could be appropiate but it does not fully capture the effect of the dialogue, while option a is quite appropiate, since the dialogue not only exemplifies the relationship between the characters, but it also captures the effect in the excerpt. we get to know that mrs linde bosses around and already knows nora.
