Answer: E. The insane live in a reality of their own
Explanation: The theme which is conveyed in this excerpt from "The tell-tale heart" by Edgar Allan Poe is <u><em>the insane live in a reality of their own</em></u>. The narrator states that even though he is dreadfully nervous he is not mad. But then admits that the disease has sharpened his senses. His acute hearing allows him to hear things from hell. He admits to loving the old man, but the idea of murdering him obsesses him. Although he has no motive, he will kill him because he wants to get rid of the vulture-like eye of the man. These remarks and some more show us that he lives in a reality of his own.

<u>A dependent adjective clause is a group of words containing a subject and a verb. It offers further description or information - similar to what an adjective does - about something that was mentioned in another sentence. Adjective clauses are often introduced by relative pronouns such as who, which, or that. In the sentence we are studying here, the adjective clause is "which resulted in a 43 to 10 win." The purpose of this clause is to offer readers more information concerning the noun "game".</u>
