Answer:
The narrator of "The Tell-Tale Heart" views his disease
as a positive thing, but the narrator of "The Black Cat"
admits that the disease made him do terrible things.
Explanation:
The format that the text was written made it hard so I'm assuming the "TRUE" part is from the Tell-Tale Heart (Our class hasn't covered it but I have read the Tell Tale Heart but not the Black Cat). The narrator of the Tell-Tale Heart states, "But why will you say that I am mad? The disease has sharpened my senses-not destroyed-not dulled them." The narrator then goes on to proclaim his disease as a positive thing, saying that it has done nothing but help him and does not realise the extent of his actions.
Meanwhile in The Black Cat, the narrator speaks about his disease as something that caused him to do terrible things and in contrast to the narrator in the previous excerpt, realised the extent of his actions. "I not only neglected, but ill-used them.," and "But my disease
grew upon me--for what disease is like Alcohol!--and at
length even Pluto, who was now becoming old, and
consequently somewhat peevish-even Pluto began to
experience the effects of my ill temper." The narrator realises how his disease caused him to negatively impact others, which is the difference between the two narrators of the different excerpts.
