1 answer:

7 0

Usher's madness begins to increase because he can hear the sound of Madeline below.
Even though his sister is buried in the basement, he can constantly hear her scratching her coffin. He was tortured by these sounds until the protagonist came to visit him so he could share his troubles with him. Usher is afraid of his 'undead' sister and of dying himself, which is why he grows crazier and crazier by the day, until he is finally killed by his own sister in the end.

Click to read the passage from The Metamorphosis, by Franz Kafka. Then

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

O A. Gregor did not like the taste of the milk.

Explanation:

Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis" is about the shocking transformation of Gregor Samsa into an insect. The short story seems to focus on the theme of isolation, aloofness, and the inability to socialize.

The one element that shows that Gregor's transformation is more than physical is that he detests the taste of milk. The sweetened milk that his sister had left for him at his door was a repulsive thing for him. The author reveals that he did not like the taste at all,<em> "[though] Milk like this was normally his favorite drink".</em>

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Which story premise most clearly contains a supernatural element?

Greeley [361]

Answer:

C. Every time a certain church bell rings, something terrible happens to Guy

Explanation:

In english, we say that an element is supernatural when it cannot be explicable by scientific laws and therefore cannot be proven as real. Examples of supernatural things are: miracles, ghosts, angels, demons, ufos, superstitions.

Looking at the options we have, option C mentions that every time a certain church bell rings, something terrible happens to Guy. We can see that this is an example of superstition since something terrible is related to the fact that the bell rings or not. Thus, this is an example of a supernatural element.

Options A and D don't have supernatural elements (a haunted house is made by people so it's not supernatural). Option B has the luck element but it's just a thought the Dr has and not really a supernatural element.
