Read the excerpt from "The Tell-Tale Heart" below. Using complete sentences, describe how Edgar Allan Poe begins to establish a

mood of terror that will continue throughout the story. In your response, use phrases and words from the excerpt to support your opinion. I could scarcely contain my feelings of triumph. To think that there I was, opening the door, little by little, and he not even to dream of my secret deeds or thoughts. I fairly chuckled at the idea; and perhaps he heard me; for he moved on the bed suddenly, as if startled. Now you may think that I drew back—but no. His room was as black as pitch with the thick darkness, (for the shutters were close fastened, through fear of robbers,) and so I knew that he could not see the opening of the door, and I kept pushing it on steadily, steadily.

Roy Ebihara and Aiko Ebihara seek to recover something that was taken from each of them when they and their families were remove
melomori [17]

Answer:

They seek to regain pride in who they are. This desire is understandable, because their nationality and ethnicity made them go through very difficult situations, which could cause shame and hostility against their own ethnicity and culture.

Explanation:

Roy Ebihara and Aiko Ebihara are a Japanese couple who were forced to leave their homes as children and live in Japanese concentration camps in the USA.

The concentration camps for Japanese people were a bad environment of extreme misery and violence. The Japanese were moved there, just for who they are, for their culture and customs. This caused many Japanese to lose the pride of their ethnicity, wishing to be other people and often denying their own roots.

Now, years after this historic event, Roy Ebihara and Aiko Ebihara wish to recover that pride and this is totally justified, because our ethnicity defines our high self-esteem and our perception of ourselves.

What is the Define of paradox and give an example
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: A paradox is a statement that contradicts itself, or that must be both true and untrue at the same time. ... But a key part of paradoxes is that they at least sound reasonable.
