Answer:

See below

Explanation:

In this passage Edgar Allan Poe utilizes several basic literary devices to build suspense and create a greater plot in this story.

Setting:

The story begins with the narrator , the day before he has been condemned to die.His home before the fire is nondescript, but it is said to have a beautiful garden. The narrator routinely hangs out taverns; adding to the feeling of something lingering and violence that he brings home. His home also has a dark, dank cellar; which foreshadows elements of the story to come.

Foreshadowing:

The strongest example of foreshadowing comes in the form of the black cat and white cat, which is also missing and eye like Pluto, reminding the narrator of the violent act, but the white mark on his chest changes shape to look like a gallows. This foreshadow the judgement that will ultimately find the narrator in this story.

Pacing:

The narrator is almost reluctant to tell his tale, because he doesn't believe anyone will believe him. He begins with his childhood, where he describes how he was somewhat different than other children. Then the story moves into the early years of his marriage. The pacing is slow and deliberate, ultimately leading to the reveal of how he wound up murdering his wife and being sentenced to death.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

What coated the insides of Roman water pipes was mineral deposits.

Back in ancient Rome the water was rich in minerals, that would create a crust inside the aqueducts by deposition, coating the pipes and protecting the water from lead contamination.

Answer:

The topic is limitation of news released to the media.

The central idea is that there are situations where the truth must be hidden.

The detail that supports the central message is sentence: "C. J. Peter's comments to The Washington Post were designed to create an impression that the situation was under control"

Explanation:

In a text, the topic refers to the subject presented. In the text above, we can see that this topic is the limitation of news released to the media. We can see that this is the topic, because we saw that after a tragedy happened, the media received limited, contained information that did not present the tragedy as it actually happened.

The central idea of a text, on the other hand, refers to the message the author wants to teach the reader. In the text above, we can see that this message is that there are situations where the truth must be hidden. This is because the group hides the truth about the tragedy so as not to generate panic and despair in the population. Therefore, we can conclude that it was necessary to hide the truth for security reasons.

The details that support the central idea are the sentences that show how the message is correct, or how it happened. In this case, we can identify the following sentence as a support detail: "C. J. Peter's comments to The Washington Post were designed to create an impression that the situation was under control"
