Explanation:
How does Poe use the first line of the story to build suspense?
Poe expects the reader to believe that Fortunato injured the narrator a thousand
times. This makes the reader feel that the author is trying to trick them.
Poe makes the narrator seem scared, which makes the reader think the narrator
is going to get caught doing something he shouldn't be doing.
Poe informs the reader that Fortunato has wronged the narrator but doesn't say
specifically what Fortunato did which creates a sense of uncertainty.
Poe reveals specific offenses that the narrator has suffered at the hands of
Fortunato. This puts the readers in the narrator's shoes, since they have also
experienced similar situations.
Answer:
Poe uses the first line of the story to build suspense in the following manner:
C. Poe informs the reader that Fortunato has wronged the narrator but doesn't say specifically what Fortunato did which creates a sense of uncertainty.
Explanation:
This question is about the short story "The Cask of Amontillado," by author Edgar Allan Poe. Take a look at how the story begins:
THE thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge. You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, that gave utterance to a threat. At length I would be avenged; this was a point definitely, settled --but the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk. I must not only punish but punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong.
We get to know two things from the get-go: the narrator feels that Fortunato has offended him; and the narrator is adamant about avenging himself.
However, at no point does the narrator reveal what Fortunato has done. Apparently, Fortunato has injured him before. Now, it is an offense. But how can we trust this narrator if he does not reveal what happened? Maybe he is too sensitive and took things too personally. Maybe nothing happened at all- he might be insane, for all we know. We are left with this uncertainty, even though the narrator tells us we know him well. We do not. He does not offer us enough information to judge for ourselves.

Identify sentence categories by dragging and dropping each sentence into the appropriate column: Simple Sentence,
Compound Sentence,
Complex Sentence, or Compound-Complex sentence.
Answer:
Simple Sentence-
Ms. Norris loves reading all kinds of books.
Compound Sentence-
I enjoy science fiction, but my favorite genre is romantic fiction.
Complex Sentence-
Kadijah can recite several poems by heart; therefore, her friends are impressed.
When Kadijah and Cal read the same folktale, they realized how interesting folktales can be.
Compound-Complex sentence-
Some students tell me that T. S. Elliot writes very plain poems, but others insist that he writes bizarre poems.
Explanation:
Simple sentences are those sentences that contain simple, one subject, one verb structure of a sentence. "Ms. Norris loves reading all kinds of books" is a simple sentence with a single subject "Ms. Norris" and single verb "loves".
Compound sentences contain two independent clauses joined by one of the coordinating conjunctions for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so (FANBOYS). "I enjoy science fiction, but my favorite genre is romantic fiction" is a compound sentence with the presence or use of the coordinating conjunction "but".
A complex sentence contains one dependent clause joined to an independent clause by a subordinating conjunction. The two sentences "Kadijah can recite several poems by heart; therefore, her friends are impressed" and "When Kadijah and Cal read the same folktale, they realized how interesting folktales can be" are complex sentences by the use of the subordinating conjunctions "therefore" and "when".
A compound-complex sentence contains both cases of compound and complex sentences, the subordinating as well as the coordinating conjunction along with a dependent clause. The use of the conjunctions "that" and "but" makes the sentence "Some students tell me that T. S. Elliot writes very plain poems, but others insist that he writes bizarre poems" a compound-complex sentence.

Susan is throwing a Christmas party, but you've forgotten which house is hers! You know that Laura does NOT live directly next to Susan. Cheryl and Eve are direct neighbors, and Laura lives further to the left of Cheryl. Which one is Susan's house?
Answer:
The suzan house is the last one on the right.
Explanation:
If cheryl and eve are direct neighbors we can understand that the two have houses next to each other. However, the text states that Laura and Susan are not direct neighbors, but Laura lives to the left of Cheryl, so we have a neighborhood formed as follows:
Layra + Cheryl + Eve +?
When we show the neighborhood layout, we can see that Susan's house is the one on the right side of Eve's house and the last house on the right.

She cursed them with swear words of a bitter taste;

something that awaits most of us with a filthy disgrace.

It means to run away suddenly or quickly

If you're learning about this I'm assuming your professor is also os already has taught you about context clues.
Considering the final sentence, "It was like a lightning strike", you're going to assume since lightning is extremely fast, so is what the word bolted means.
Make an extremely fast action, let's say.

Answer:

Explanation:
A “routine” is something you do the same way everyday. The statement is True.
What is a routine?Sit down, figure out what's upsetting you, and deal with your worries if you want to manage your anxiety. Our bodies can adjust and learn what to expect when we establish regular routines through exercise or by altering our sleep patterns.
The same is true of mental routines; by developing predictable outcomes through habits, you may help your mind adjust, grasp what to anticipate, and reduce worry associated with the unknown.
Particularly for people dealing with the symptoms of anxiety disorder, keeping a journal is an excellent approach to create a regular habit. You can establish a pattern or process for mental recovery and wellness by keeping a journal every day at the same time.
Daily programs for those with busy schedules might encourage good lifestyle behaviors. Going to bed at the same time every night can help you maintain a regular sleep schedule, while making small changes like preparing your lunch before work can help you eat a more balanced diet.
