1. Characterization. Poe describes the character of Fortunato in just a couple of sentences.

2. Setting. In this passage the author creates the macabre ambient and scenery that normally represents his short stories.

3. Tragic resolution. Even though it sounds ironic, this phrase said by Fortunato wasn't meant to be sarcastic, he is serious when he says he won't die of a cough. The tragic resolution of the character is actually what makes this passage sound ironic, Fortunato doesn't know he's about to die, a much more horrible death.

"The cask of Amontillado" is the story of a fatal person taking revenge on his friend thinking that his friend has insulted him. Scholars noticed that Montresor's reasons for revenge are unclear and that he may simply be insane.

The best choice identifying the given passage is:

1. Characterization. Poe describes the character of Fortunato in just a couple of sentences. These couple of sentences just describes the behavior and narration of the Fortunato. 2. Setting. The author creates some of the macabre ambient and scenes that represent the short story in the passage. 3. Tragic resolution. The story sounds ironic, but the phrases of Fortunato are not sarcastic. He is serious when he says he will not be dying just because of a cough. The tragic solution is how he actually confronts to make the passage ironic and much more horrible to death.

All the choices are correct but the above-mentioned are the best that identifies the given passage from "The Cask of Amontillado".

Read the passage: canines may not be the deepest thinkers in the world. but perhaps that's for the best. the life of a dog—sitting alone all day, waiting for everyone to come home—can be pretty boring. super-smart animals would probably get totally stressed out, says university of pennsylvania researcher james serpell. look at it this way: if dogs were any smarter, they probably wouldn't choose to hang around with us. which best describes the tone of the passage?

This excerpt is from “the poet” by alfred, lord tennyson. the poem describes a poet's consciousness and perception. which three lines suggest the richness of a poet's thoughts? thus truth was multiplied on truth, [the world like one great garden show'd,] and thro' the wreaths of floating dark upcurl'd, rare sunrise flow'd. [and freedom rear'd in that august sunrise] her beautiful bold brow, when rites and forms before his burning eyes melted like snow. [there was no blood upon her maiden robes] sunn'd by those orient skies; but round about the circles of the globes of her keen eyes and in her raiment's hem was traced in flame wisdom, a name to shake [all evil dreams of power--a sacred name.] and when she spake, [her words did gather thunder as they ran,] and as the lightning to the thunder which follows it, riving the spirit of man, making earth wonder, so was their meaning to her words. no sword of wrath her right arm whirl'd, [ but one poor poet's scroll, and with 'his' word] she shook the world.
