In "The Cask of Amontillado", Fortunato is tricked by the narrator into going down into the passages underneath the narrator's home to test the quality of a cask of Amontillado (wine). Along the way, the narrator gets Fortunato so drunk that when they reach their destination, he is too unaware to defend himself. The narrator had prepared ahead of time and Fortunato finds himself chained to the wall in a passageway, and there he must stay as he watches the narrator pick up mortar and bricks that were placed there ahead of time and slowly build a wall in front of Fortunato. When the wall is finished, he is left down in the new room to die.

150words essay on through the tunnel
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The transition from childhood to adolescence is a difficult process with many obstacles. Jerry strives to be like the older boys, but he can only do that when he matures enough. While Jerry plays on the safe beach, he always looks back at the bay because he longs to grow up and be wild, like an adolescent, but he is unsure if he is ready for the change.  Jerry was afraid to go through the tunnel, afraid to leave his childhood, because he did not know what would happen if he did. As scared as Jerry is, he knows that he has to go through this process now, he believes that he has matured enough and is prepared for the obstacles ahead. Jerry puts his childhood behind him and he becomes independent. He changed his mind because he believed that he was both mentally and physically strong enough to overcome life’s obstacles in his adolescent years. Jerry’s feelings represent his maturity level and whether he is ready for such a change or not.

He pointed an angry finger at me.' (a) Litotes (b) Oxymoron (c) Transferred Epithet (d) Pun​
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

(c) Transferred Epithet.

Explanation:

A transferred epithet is a figure of speech where the modifier (usually an adjective) is taken to modify other nouns in the sentence. In other words, a transferred epithet modifies a noun in a sentence other than the intended noun. This means that it describes a noun that was not initially supposed to modify.

In the given sentence <em>"he pointed an angry finger at me"</em>, the adjective "angry" was supposed to modify the pronoun "he". But with the placement of the word nearer to another noun "finger", it seems like it is describing the 'finger' rather than the person 'he'.

Thus, this sentence is an example of a transferred epithet.
