They want to prevent him from reading.

This passage is in the section of the memoir when Douglass is talking about how they wanted to keep him from an education. The paragraph this text is found in begins "Mrs. Auld was an apt woman, and the advice of her husband, and her own experience, soon demonstrated, to her entire satisfaction, that education and slavery are incompatible with each other." It goes on to say how he already knew his alphabet so her concerns about him getting an education were too late. He already had the knowledge he needed to continue his studies.

How does the setting in this passage help create suspense the fall of the house by usher?
I am Lyosha [343]

From the first lines of the history, the narrator tries to insert the reader in an obscure and sad atmosphere, where it predominates a mystery climate and exacerbated negativity.

The images lead the reader, from the beginning of the narrative to sensations and events that seem to challenge him and to invite to a construction process of differentiated sense.

The creation of the Gothic elements happens through the construction of the atmosphere of fear of the story, as well as the gloomy and decadent character, intensified still more on the phantasmagoric environment of the mansion Usher.

The characters also gain important narrative participation in the study work, as soon as his ambiguous characterization gives to the story a tone of estrangement. So, the Gothic thing in The Fall of the House of Usher is revealed through the morbid description of the narrative environments and of the decoration without life, of the imprecision that shows up around the nature of the events and of the characterization of the main characters, Madeline and Roderick Usher.

I'm freaking out I'm in my freshman year of high school and I have a C in math. I have A's in everything else but I'm still frea
kondaur [170]

Answer:I'm a junior and believe me I understand what your going through as a freshman and I've struggled with math before too! It's obviously not great to have a C in a class. Just because you have a C though doesn't mean you should give up I say just try to get a good picture of what grade you think you can achieve whether it be an A or a B and set that goal for yourself. I used videos from google to help me with certain subjects I didn't understand and took advantage of tutoring when I could. Try your best and if a C is still what you get then be proud of yourself and don't worry too much because in the end it is just a grade. it's nothing to cry over and you're amazing either way!
