Answer: The right answer is foreshadowing.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that by hinting at what may happen in the future—Fortunato will eventually die, and indeed not of a cough, but by being buried alive—Poe is employing foreshadowing. Fortunato says that his cough will not kill him, to what Montresor replies "true—true," since he well knows that that's not going to be the cause of his death. An humiliated and vindictive Montresor will bury him alive. This technique keeps the reader engaged and interested.

A product that represents a clear technological advance over competing products can generally command a high price. Because tech
scoray [572]

The statement with the underlined parts in bold is as follows:

A product that represents a clear technological advance over competing products can generally command a high price. Because technological advances tend to be quickly surpassed and companies want to make large profits while they still can, many companies charge the maximum possible price for such a product. But large profits on the new product will give competitors a strong incentive to quickly match the new product's capabilities. Consequently, the strategy to maximize overall profit from a new product is to charge less than the greatest possible price.

In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

(A) The first is an assumption that forms the basis for a course of action that the argument criticizes; the second presents the course of action endorsed by the argument.

(B) The first is a consideration raised to explain the appeal of a certain strategy; the second is a consideration raised to call into question the wisdom of adopting that strategy.

(C) The first is an assumption that has been used to justify a certain strategy; the second is a consideration that is used to cast doubt on that assumption.

(D) The first is a consideration raised in support of a strategy the argument endorses; the second presents grounds in support of that consideration.

(E) The first is a consideration raised to show that adopting a certain strategy is unlikely to achieve the intended effect; the second is presented to explain the appeal of that strategy.

Answer:

The answer is the option D

Explanation:

Companies know that by releasing a new product quickly, the competition will do everything possible to obtain a new product with the same characteristics but at a lower price.

Therefore the second part in bold supports the effect of what the first part of the text that is in bold says.

What is the author’s attitude toward space research? Cite evidence to support your answer.? Why Exploring the Ocean is Mankind's
Sati [7]

Answer: The author believes that space research, while important, has diverted attention and resources away from exploring the oceans (the ocean should have a chance to be explored). As evidence, he says that early exploration of the ocean's depths was “quickly overshadowed by the race to the moon.” (lines 13–14).  In the text, it states " In July 2011, the space shuttle program that had promised to revolutionize space travel by making it (relatively) affordable and accessible came to an end after 30 years". This quote shows that the ocean should be explored more.
