The correct answer is D) The house burns to the ground the day after the narrator kills the first cat.

The event from "The Black Cat" that seems to prove the wife´s superstition about cats to be correct is "The house burns to the ground the day after the narrator kills the first cat."

Edgar Allan Poe wrote the short story "The Black Cat" in 1843. It was published in the "Saturday Evening Post." It's the story of a man that conceals his crime but ends up confessing his atrocity. Poe brilliantly studies the character and the psychology of guilt around him.

The other options of the question are A) the wife stops the narrator from killing the second cat in the cellar, B) the narrator hides the body of his wife within the wall of his cellar, and C) the narrator hangs the first black cat from a tree in his yard.

Why doesnt chillingworth assert his rights as hesters husband?
lesantik [10]
Roger Chillingworth does not wish to explain why he has abandoned his wife to live with Indians where he has studied herbs and medicinal cures. His past history would be subject to questioning and, according to the Puritans, would be considered witchcraft.

I will mark brainliest
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The poem's free verses speaks to the reader in a rhythm of natural speech,  the reality of life. This is accomplished through compelling words, a refrain, symbolism, and an extended metaphor.

Explanation:

The reality of life for her is depicted from words such as splinters, torn boards, and bareness. This is actually a poem from a mother to a son telling him to keep on trudging even through everything he will have to combat and the tribulations he will face just as she exemplified. The word choice used is interesting to analyze. The word choice is simple yet it creates imagery. The symbolism can be found in a word such as "staircase" - it symolizes trials and hardships as well as the years that have passed. The refrain used starts out the poem and ends the poem powerfully. "And life for me aint't been no crystal stair." Looking at the word "crystal" which one could interpret it as a word symbolising "beauty" or "imperfections." The mom is telling her son that her years of life that have passed have not been perfect, but full of hardships. The author used an extended metaphor throughout the poem by comparing the mother's life to a staircase.

I hope this helps!

In City what do builders value
Reika [66]
Do you mean people who physically build structures?

If so, money. Low-pay, demanding physical labor, low intelligence required, they value the little money their job affords.
