Poe's short story "The Fall of the House of Usher" was published in 1839, and Bierce's short story "The Middle Toe to the Right
umka21 [38]

The right answer is letter b: <em>the houses in both passages are described as having an air of rot, gloom and loneliness</em>.  

Poe's character describes Mr. Roderick Usher's house as one he cannot help to consider a "melancholy view" where "there  was an iciness, a sinking, a sickening of the heart" . Said house caused an "insufferable gloom" in the observer's spirit.


In a similar thread of thought, Bierce's tale about the Manton house describes its looks as sufficient to affirm it is<em> "haunted"</em>. He describes the house as <em>"slowly falling into decay"</em> as <em>"cobwebs weave in the angles of the walls like strips of rotting lace..."</em> all while standing <em>"a little way off the loneliest reach of the Marshall and Harriston road". </em>

Compare and contrast the two men Paris &amp; Romeo in the story Romeo &amp; Juliet
In-s [12.5K]
Paris is guided more by politics and reasoning, while Romeo is guided more by passion and impulse. Because Paris wants to marry Juliet, he sits down with her father to make the arrangement. This was much more traditional of a way to arrange a marriage in that time. He is related to the Prince and the Capulets are a wealthy family, so the arrangement is probably somewhat motivated by those facts. Romeo, on the other hand, does whatever he wants to and acts impulsively. He sees Juliet, falls in love, and marries her without asking permission or  thinking through the potential consequences.

How does this quotation add credibility to Freedman's statement that the immigrants never forgot seeing the Statue of Liberty fo
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Read Edward Corsi's quotation from the book Immigrant

Kids by Russell Freedman.

Edward Corsi, who later became United States Commissioner of Immigration, was a ten-year-old Italian immigrant when he sailed into New York harbor in 1907:

Giuseppe and I held tightly to Stepfather's hands, while Liberta and Helvetia clung to Mother.

Passengers all about us were crowding against the rail. Jabbered conversations, sharp cries, laughs and cheers - a steadily rising din filled the air. Mothers and fathers lifted up babies so that they too could see, off to the left, the Statue of Liberty

How does this quotation add credibility to Freedman's statement that the immigrants never forgot seeing the Statue of Liberty for the first time? It adds credibility because it comes from a worker on the ship who sailed past the Statue of Liberty. It adds credibility because it comes from an immigrant who actually shares his memories of seeing the Statue of Liberty. It adds credibility because it comes from a historian who studied immigrants and the Statue of Liberty. It adds credibility because it comes from a journalist who researched the Statue of Liberty.

Answer:

It adds credibility because it comes from an immigrant who actually shares his memories of seeing the Statue of Liberty

Explanation:

Freedman made a statement that immigrants never forgot seeing the Statue of Liberty for the first time because the narration comes from an immigrant who shares his experience of seeing the statue as he wrote "Mothers and fathers lifted up babies so that they too could see, off to the left, the Statue of Liberty"

Do run- on only need a comma to fix it
natta225 [31]

Sometimes. If the sentence is two independent clauses then they would need either a period or a semicolon. A comma would be used if you had an independent and dependent clause.
