Answer:

Your answer should include the following points:

Mention what you knew about Poe before you read his background information. You might have noted Poe's difficult childhood or his personal tragedies, for example.

Mention the names of any of Poe’s stories and poems that you have read. Examples include the short stories “The Tell-Tale Heart” and “The Black Cat” and the poem “The Bells.”

Mention the name of movies or TV shows where you might have heard about him. For example, there is an episode of The Simpsons based on “The Raven.”

Explain how having prior information about Poe’s tragic life will help you understand his dark poem “The Raven.” The loss of his mother and adoptive mother early in his life, for example, may provide insight to how Poe writes about death.

<span>Edgar Allan Poe (January 19, 1809 to October 7, 1849) was an American writer, poet, critic and editor best known for evocative short stories and poems that captured the imagination and interest of readers around the world. His imaginative storytelling and tales of mystery and horror gave birth to the modern detective story. Many of Poe’s works, including “The Tell-Tale Heart” and “The Fall of the House of Usher,” became literary classics. Some aspects of Poe’s life, like his literature, is shrouded in mystery, and the lines between fact and fiction have been blurred substantially since his death.</span>

liubo4ka [24]
The correct answer is: C: The sentence has a compound subject. Subject in sentence is<span> the person or thing about whom the statement is made. Every verb in sentence must have at least one subject. But that doesn't mean that it is the only possibility: namely, the verb can have more than one subject, too. In such cases, we can say that a sentence has a compound subject. In this sentence: "Conrad and his sister will sing a duet in the concert.", compound subject is: "Conrad and his sister", since the statement is about the both of them.</span>
