Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
"These vaults," he said, "are extensive." "The Montresors," I replied, "were a great and numerous family." "I forget your arms." "A huge human foot d'or, in a field azure; the foot crushes a serpent rampant whose fangs are imbedded in the heel." "And the motto?" "Nemo me impune lacessit." "Good!" he said.
Select the correct inference of the given passage from "The Cask of Amontillado."
Fortunato likes the Montresor family motto.
Fortunato is forgetful.
Fortunato is jealous.
Fortunato does not respect Montresor or his family.
Answer:
Fortunato likes the Montresor family motto.
Explanation:
According to the reading of the text, we can see that fortunato has a great respect for Montressor and his family, since he expresses this by praising the vaults and being very impressed by it. This part also shows that he is not jealous of a montress and speaks to him without any kind of sarcasm or irony. Finally, we can see that Fortunato has a positive reaction to Montressor's family motto, showing that he liked the motto. This motto also foreshadows the monasteryor's revenge against Fortunato.
1. rude and disrespectful behavior = One must make a distinction however: when dragged into prominence by half poets, the result is not poetry, nor till the poets among us can be "literalists of the imagination"–above insolence and triviality and can present for inspection, "imaginary gardens with real toads in them," shall we have it. . . (from "Poetry" by Marianne Moore)
This is assuming the bolded word is insolence. Insolence has to do with rude behavior, with someone being disrespectful and not showing appropriate behavior towards someone above their status. Insolence means bad manners.
2. an opening for the passage of steam or liquid = The jar was round upon the ground And tall and of a port in air. (from "Anecdote of the Jar" by Wallace Stevens)
This is assuming the bolded word is port. The word port comes from Latin porta, which means gate, and later from French porte, which means door. So when it was assimilated into English (port), one of its meanings is that it is an opening of some sort.
3. the feeling that a person or a thing is worthless = Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one discovers in it after all, a place for the genuine. (from "Poetry" by Marianne Moore)
This is assuming the bolded word is contempt. Contempt refers to scorn, disdain, negative emotions towards someone on the basis that they are not worthy of your consideration. You will probably disregard them as something completely irrelevant.
