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.

3. Mike and Tina don't usually study in the evenings. They often read magazines.

4. My father works from 9:00a.m. to 7:00pm during weekdays but he never works on Saturdays.

Explanation:

Words in simple present actually show action  that take place regularly and those that are happening right now. The person (whether first person, second person or third person) determines the formation of the tense whether -s or -es will be added to the verb root word or not.

Prepositions are used in sentences before nouns, pronouns or noun phrases. They are used in order to time, place, direction, introduce an object or even show spatial relationship.

In the above sentences, the prepositions are used to show the time something occurs.

When Emma was little, she loved to colour but now she’s in high school and doesn’t have much free time. Today her swim practice was canceled, so she decided to grab her coloured pencils and her little sisters colouring book and got to work, she sat down and began to fill in the blank shapes with beautiful pastels, after a while she decided to go colour in the fresh air, she felt so relaxed sitting outside. After a while she heard her mum calling her for dinner, she sat a little longer before she went inside because she loved spending her day doing something so peaceful.
