There was an iciness, a sinking, a sickening of the heart—an unredeemed dreariness of thought which no goading of the imaginatio

n could torture into aught of the sublime. What was it—I paused to think—what was it that so unnerved me in the contemplation of the House of Usher? In this excerpt from “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe, what sight has inspired this dire feeling?

This dire feeling was inspired by the sight of the House of Usher itself. The excerpt is from the very first paragraph of the story, at which moment we have no idea who the Ushers are, what's wrong with their house (or them), or even who the narrator is. We just get to find out how it made him feel. It infused him with gloom, bleakness, and depression so great that he couldn't comprehend it or understand its cause. This feeling has two functions: it foreshadows that something bad is about to happen at this house, and it builds suspense by signaling to the reader that the house itself is haunted or cursed in some other way - almost as if it had a soul and will of its own.

Advocard [28]

Answer and Explanation:

Today's society is shaped and totally influenced by technological advances, which have efficiently improved our personal, economic, political and personal connections, facilitating very important processes for the establishment of efficient communities.

Technological advances have facilitated our form of communication, allowing us to access information much more quickly. In addition, this advance has optimized the population's health with the existence of increasingly specific and efficient machines, in addition to allowing an increasingly safe and fast movement and transportation.

Nevertheless, we can see a strong improvement process in the devices to which we are dependent. More and more efficient machines promote jobs, previously performed by human beings, more quickly and economically, promoting a strong automation of services. This has caused competition in the productive sectors and has caused many layoffs, but it has raised the speed and standardization of services like never before seen.

In this regard, we can conclude that technological advancement is very beneficial to our society, but it has caused social problems that must be compensated by public policies that promote technological advancement and the protection of the population.

In at least 150 words, discuss how the popularity of such works as Benjamin Franklin’s Poor Richard’s Almanack and “The Way To W
Kryger [21]

Benjamin Franklin's "The Way To Wealth" signifies the change from the "puritan plain" writing style to the "protestant work ethic" style. In fact, it wasn't just the writing style that changed, it was American values, traditions, nationalism, and culture that changed during this time as well. The popularity of The Way To Wealth showed that more and more Americans were concerned with higher levels of intellectual knowledge, than they did for futile religious dogma and rhetoric. Furthermore, Americans didn't love with being a colony of the British Empire, so this area in time also represented a gradual change in the American value of British nationalism, to American nationalism. Therefore, besides the fact that Americans were switching from the puritan faith to the protestant doctrine, they were also beginning to change their values in regards to education and British nationalism. The reason being, they no longer wanted education for the rich, but they wanted it for everyone and they weren't fond of being taxed a lot by Great Britain.
