Answer:

B. Fear can shape how we see things and how we act.

Explanation:

The short story "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allen Poe revolves around the narrator trying to convince the readers of his sanity by narrating how and why he murdered the old man.

The narrator began to reveal why the hate for the man's blue eye led to his gruesome act of murder. He also reveals he could hear the old man's heartbeat on the eighth night that he decided to act swiftly in the killing. He mentioned how the old man comforted himself by attributing the fear in his heart to be the noise made by the wind, mouse, or even cricket. The narrator/ murderer also revealed how his own fear led to the swift action of killing the old man,<em> "I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever." </em>

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

A) use an adjective to describe the behavior of most people in the passage
Pani-rosa [81]

Adjectives are words used to describe, show the characteristics of something.

You didn't show the excerpt that this question refers to, which makes it impossible for me to show you the adjective you need, but I'll show you how to find that adjective.

As stated above, an adjective is a word that shows the characteristics of something. Examples of adjectives are the words: ugly, beautiful, noisy, apprehensive, nervous, small, happy, indifferent, excited, silent, among others.

In this case, to answer your question you must:

Read the entire text.

Identify the way people, described in the text, behave.

Find the word that best represents this type of behavior.

In this case, we can conclude that the function of the adjective is to describe, and by trying to describe the behavior of the population, you will be able to find the adjective you need.
