<u>Answer:</u>

Normally, a simile compares the present event or people with another thing in a poem. If the simile carries so much detail and extends up to several lines, then it is called epic simile. In the lines 81-89, the simile explains about the survivor of the wrecked boat who finally manages to reach the shore.

He can finally hold his wife after a long time. Odysseus was also lost for a long time and is finding a way to return to Penelope. When he finally reaches the land, he cries in excitement like the survivor of the crashed boat.

Read the excerpt below and answer the question.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Fortunato's dress foreshadows his being a fool or buffoon.

Explanation:

Edgar Allen Poe's short story "The Cask of Amontillado" is about Montresor's revenge on Fortunato, who had insulted him many times. The story deals with themes of revenge, friendship, appearance and reality, sin, etc.

In the given excerpt from the story, Montresor describes Fortunato's dress when he first met him that carnival night. He revealed that <em>"[Fortunato] wore motley . . . had on a tight-fitting parti-striped dress, and his head was surmounted by the conical cap and bells."</em> "Motley" refers to the multicolored suit worn by clowns, which seems to <u>foreshadow the character of Fortunato as a buffoon or a fool.</u>

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
