Most Americans are familiar with the mushrooms they eat on a pizza or in a salad. But most people do not know that more than 3,0

00 different types of mushrooms are grown around the world. Some mushrooms are less than an inch high, while others are more than 15 inches tall. They have strange names like shiitake, Portobello and Black Trumpet . Until World War II, most mushrooms were grown in Asia, where they were used in soups and vegetable dishes. But today, the United States is the world’s largest supplier of mushrooms. From 1986 to 1999, worldwide mushroom production grew from 470 million pounds to 860 million pounds.

In the beginning of the story, omitted from this excerpt Fortunato, dressed in the cap and bells of a court jester or fool. Leav
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

There are hints in the story that suggests that Mon-t-re-sor considered Fortun-ato to be naive.

And, Mon-t-re-sor did not regret Fortun-ato's ignorance.

Explanation:

'The Cask of Amon-tillado' is a short story written by Edgar Allan Poe. The story is a revenge narration of Mont-resor, who is confessing his crime to someone fifty years later after he committed the crime.

From the stories, one can find clues that Mont-resor considered Fortun-ato to be a fool. When he states <em>'I was so pleased to see him, that I  thought I should never have done wrin-gi-ng his hand.' </em>

Mont-resor also never regretted Fortun-ato's ignorance rather he was pleased that he did not have to wr-ing his hand to exert his plan.

In Being Henry David, what type of learner is hank?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Seventeen-year-old "Hank" has found himself at Penn Station in New York City with no memory of anything --who he is, where he came from, why he's running away. His only possession is a worn copy of Walden, by Henry David Thoreau. And so he becomes Henry David-or "Hank" and takes first to the streets, and then to the only destination he can think of--Walden Pond in Concord, Massachusetts. Cal Armistead's remarkable debut novel is about a teen in search of himself. Hank begins to piece together recollections from his past. The only way Hank can discover his present is to face up to the realities of his grievous memories. He must come to terms with the tragedy of his past, to stop running, and to find his way home.
