HELP— 10 POINTS

1 answer:
djverab [1.8K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The characterization of Fortunato speaks a lot about his personality. He is a drunkard and loves to wear jester-clothes. This characterization has its affects as because of his drunkardness, Montresor was able to lure him.

'The Cask of Amontillado' is a short Gothic story written by Edgar Allan Poe.

Fortunato is another main character in the story and the character on whom Montressor avenge himself. He's been described by Montressor in the story.

He is a 'wine-expert' which characterizes him as a drunkard. It was due to his addiction towards wine because of which he was caught in Montressor'ss trap for his own death. Montressor, cleverly, approaches Fortunato to help him to tasting of a rare wine which Montressor was able to get through a pipe.

Another characterization of Fortunato was his sense of dressing, he loves wearing jester-clothes.. When Montressor met him at carnival he was wearing a motley jester. His sense of wearing reveals that he is a 'funny fellow.' Even at the beginning of the story, Montressor states that Fortunato has 'inflcted him with thousand injuries.'

These characterization of Fortunato helps the plot of the story reach it's conclusion, death of Fortunato. If he would not have been addicted to wine, Montressor would not have been able to lure him into his death trap. If he would not have been insensitive, he would not have 'caused Montressor thousand injuries which led Montressor to avenge on him.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Jay turned off the current before taking apart the

outlet.

The current from the overhead wire caused sparks

to fly.

Explanation:

When words are spelled or pronounced in the same way but have different meanings, they are called homonyms.

One of homonyms is the word "current" which can mean:

- something happening at the present time

- a movement of  body of water in a certain direction

- the flow of electrical energy

In the first answer, the outlet is a device whose purpose is to connect electrical devices to an electrical supply (plugging it in the socket). So, it's electrical current.

In the second answer, it denotes the moving of the water

In the third answer, it means that Todd's present roommate in neat.

In the fourth answer, since it comes from a wire and causes a spark, it denotes electrical current.

Finally, since Vanya is in the river, it denotes a flow of the water.
