Acobs creates suspense through the use of setting, foreshadowing, and purposeful omission. The story takes place at the White residence, which is relatively isolated and located away from the nearest road. This isolated location adds to the haunting atmosphere of the story and is significant to the plot. Jacobs also foreshadows the ramifications of wishing upon the magic monkey's paw through Sergeant-Major Moris's enigmatic story.

The supernatural plays a large role in Macbeth. Had the witches not talked to Macbeth in the beginning of the play & told him of what he could become, none of the events that followed would have taken place. This gives an overall dark mood to the story. The mood relates to the play's central conflicts because after talking to some really dark and evil beings, Macbeth does some dark and evil things.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

The answer is A.

Mistake:

The only problme that is not an alliteration. An Allliteration is when the same sound repeets in a sentence. For an explale ¨She sells sea shells on the sea shore.¨

Reason the anwer A.

The staue is the Noun, but why is it A? Easy The person who is saying they like it. The other anwser have no part here.
