Read the excerpt from “The Black Cat."
For the most wild, yet most homely narrative
which I am about to pen, I neither expect nor
solicit belief. Mad indeed would I be to expect it,
in a case where my very senses reject their own
evidence. Yet, mad am I not—and very surely do
I not dream. But to-morrow I die, and to-day !
would unburthen my soul. My immediate purpose
is to place before the world, plainly, succinctly,
and without comment, a series of mere
household events. In their consequences, these
events have terrifiedhave tortured-have
destroyed me.
Which details support the idea that the first point of view creates as sense of suspense about what is to come in the story
Answer:
The details that create the sense of suspense about what is to come in the story are the narrator's reactions and his words "these events have terrifiedhave tortured-have destroyed me."
Explanation:
As we can see, as soon as the lines begin, the narrator begins to warn people that he is neither crazy nor dreaming. He is describing certain events that, according to him, have been traumatizing and have destroyed him.
Our position as readers is to wait for something that will generate suspense or fear, because the author is definitely not going to describe a pleasant scene.
Those are the clues we have to deduce the details of what is to come in the story.

'A doctrine of consideration for others, similar to the golden rule, was taught by Confucius as the basis for all social and political conduct.' written in active voice
Answer:
'Confucius taught a doctrine of consideration for others, similar to the golden rule as the basis for all social and political conduct.'
Explanation:
The given sentence is written in the passive voice because the subject 'Confucius' is not performing the action(taught) stated by the verb but rather receives it and the object and verb are being emphasized and shown interest in.
It can be converted into the active voice by substituting the subject to its original position and removing 'by.' This will help emphasize the subject in the sentence where it(the subject) is directly performing the action. Thus, the final sentence will follow the structure of 'subject(Confucius) + verb(taught) + object('a doctrine...conduct'). Therefore, the final sentence in the active voice reads as:
'Confucius taught a doctrine of consideration for others, similar to the golden rule as the basis for all social and political conduct.'
what's the purpose of active reading

I need help analyzing this introduction!! Thank you :)
Since the publication of the first novel of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight saga in 2005, millions of readers
all over the world, the majority of whom are teenage girls and women, have fallen for the love story of
Bella and Edward. Furthered by the release of the movie adaptations of the first three volumes in
2009 and 2010, critics have started to wonder about the foundation of Twilight-mania, especially
concerning the basic theme of the story, namely the vampire myth, which, throughout its literary
history, is rather a reflection of "adolescent male fantasy" (Twitchell, Living 6). Still, the indisputably
kitsny story of an inconspicuous teenager who falls in love with the vampire next door fascinates
today's emancipated and independent females and thus can be regarded as an essential part of the
success. It would seem that the attraction derives from Meyer's unique interweaving of different
generic elements, a strategy which can be found in other late 20th- and 21st-century popular
literature. Thus, for instance, the "Harry Potter books have been received with manic enthusiasm"
because they, too, "uniquely combine several kinds of appeal" (O'Keefe 176), such as the mixture of
public school story and fantasy. In the Twilight Saga, we find a similar amalgamation of various
different literary genres - fantasy fiction for young adults, vampire story, gothic romance, and
Arthurian legend. It is a medley, a generic crossing that is - not least due to its focus on an active
young heroine - bound to entice a primarily female readership.
Through an analysis of the figure of the vampire in literature as well as in folklore it will be observed
to what extent Edward differs from the folkloric blood-sucking revenant and also from the master of all
literary vampires, Dracula. Furthermore, it will be investigated how his knightly behaviour towards
Bella contributes to the impression of a romantic transformation of the gothic form. Special attention
will also be paid to the figure of Bella, who, on the one hand seems to be presented as the femme
fragile or damsel in distress concerning her physicality, but, on the other hand, represents a figure of
identification for female readers as the independent, strong-willed hero of young adult fiction. The
analysis seeks to prove that the combination of these various aspects of different genres and
traditions allows Meyer to create a new kind of vampire love story.

Explanation:
How does the poem depict the two contrasting ideas-"fire and ice"? Can hatred destroy us and the world? Explain bringing out values which can make this world a better place to live in.
1. The poem shows how ice and focus are different, yet powerful in their ways and that both have the capacity to destroy the world, similar to emotions and feeling. To confirm this, the author makes an analogy about fire representing bad and powerful feelings such as arrogance, anger, cruelty and indifference, while fire represents bad emotions such as hatred, greed and insensitivity.
2. The author shows that, like ice, hate can consume ourselves and the world, destroying and destroying everything around us in a powerful and unpleasant way.
3. To bring out values that can make the world a better place to live, we must cultivate good feelings, be autruistic, sincere, kind and return bad feelings like hatred and repudiation to things that destroy our society like inequality, racism and prejudice.

Read this passage from "The Cask of Amontillado" by Edgar Allan
Poe. Then, answer the following question(s)
Which theme, or lesson about life, would the character's thoughts in
this passage best support?
A. the importance of honesty in human relations
B. the indifference of nature to human suffering
c. the danger of a single passion taking over the mind
D. the cowardly nature of those who forgive an enemy
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 I 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
It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had 1
given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will. I continued, as
was my wont, to smile in his face, and he did not perceive
that my smile now was at the thought of his immolation.**

Why is ‘for a second repeated in the paragraph beginning 'Conor frowned, and for a second the whole room seemed to get darker'? In A MONSTER CALLS
Answer:
The repetition of "for a second" is done to emphasize how quickly Conor's sensations and emotions (which lasted for a second) were felt.
Explanation:
In "A monster calls" we are presented with the following paragraph:"Conor frowned, and for a second the whole room seemed to get darker, for a second it felt like the whole house was shaking, for a second it felt like he could reach down and tear the whole floor right out of the dark and loamy earth."
In this paragraph we can see the use of the figure of speech called Anaphor, which allows a word, or a group of words, to be repeated to emphasize some message that the author wishes to convey. In this paragraph we can see the repetition of "for a second", which was done to emphasize the speed with which Conor felt emotions and sensations.
2.(LC)
Read the paragraph. Then answer the question that follows.
Perhaps you wanted pizza for dinner, but were out voted by the rest of the family who wanted chill. This is similar to what happens in a community. One person has to give up a right for the good
of the group. Sometimes citizens' duties and rights conflict with each other. A good example is a public protest. People have the right to meet in groups and share ideas. However, a protest can
disrupt trac or other normal activities. A city must provide extra police protection to keep people sale. Therefore, the city has the right to require permission in advance for a protest.
Government must make laws to balance the rights of individuals and different groups of people.
What type of connection is used in the paragraph? (5 points)
Simile
Contrast
Category
Analogy
Answer: Analogy
Explanation: comparing an event such as choosing pizza to something completely different that has even more meaning shows that the choosing pizza is a simpler example that shows a complex meaning.
