As a narrator, Montresor can best be described as an unreliable narrator.

Explanation:

In most cases involving reading and/or literature, an unreliable narrator refers to a narrator who cannot be depended on or trusted. This is typically present in first person narration. In “The Cask of Amontillado,” Montresor is most viewed as an unreliable narrator because for one, he’s a character in the story he is narrating, which already deems his perspective to be likely to be untrue. Additionally, he has a set view of Fortunato that is biased. This is shown where he says that Fortunato wronged him, but the way that Fortunato wronged him is never explicitly mentioned in the story. To add to this, the plot of the story overall clearly displays Montresor’s manipulation. If you ask me, it seems he was the one who wronged Fortunato. The narrator also does not reveal everything about the past and what May have led him to say Fortunato wronged him. Because of this misconception, Montresor is seen as an unreliable narrator.

In terms of what it shows about America, being American, and America's core values, with which work did you identify the most?

anzhelika [568]

Answer and Explanation:

One work that most identifies me is the poem "I Hear America Singing" written by Walt Whitman. In this poem, the author shows the feeling of unity and pride in being an American. I believe that these feelings are two fundamental values for American society, as a society that works together, each citizen with their responsibility, each citizen with their importance, helping each other and making America a harmonious and efficient unit. This unity provokes a strong pride in all citizens, allowing everyone to feel happy to recognize and publicize that he / she is American.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

The given assertion proffers a false claim as it incorrectly defines the communication displayed by Margaret through arranging a 'multiparty text chatting session with her quality managers and supervisors' as 'asynchronous communication'. <u>This situation rather exemplifies a 'synchronous communication' as they all have been invited to a single platform to discuss the things face-to-face in real-time without the use of any external signal</u>. All the participants are substantially involved in the process of communication. Therefore, the given statement is asserting a <u>false</u> definition.

Which statement best shows a problem in the memoir Travels with Charley? For many years I have traveled in many parts of the world. But New York is no more America than Paris is France or London is England. I, an American writer, writing about America, was working from memory, and the memory is at best a faulty, warpy reservoir. So it was that I determined to look again, to try to rediscover this monster land.

Explanation:

"I, an American writer, writing about America, was working from memory, and the memory is at best a faulty, warpy reservoir best shows the problem in the memoir, travels with Charley".

"Travels with Charley" by John Steinbeck, shows the imperfection of a writer's memory which could be misleading. He felt he would have forgotten so quickly, the scent of trees and grasses, the color and the natural habitation of the country. To re-discover the American identity, he embarked on a voyage of re-discovery with a company named Charley, a French poodle.
