The correct answers are: a low moaning cry from the depth of the recess (option 2), furious vibrations of the chain (option 3), and a succession of loud and shrill screams, bursting suddenly from the throat of the chained form (option 5)

A gruesome atmosphere is one that causes countless horror; is extremely repugnant; horrific, etc. In "The Cask of Amontillado," Montresor, the first-person narrator’s of the story, describes how he took revenge on Fortunato throughout a carnival in Venice. Montresor decoys Fortunato into the catacombs with a cask of amontillado, and then he follows the story burning him alive.  We clearly see how this is a gruesome story, and how this phrases above contribuites to make it one.

In the story of “Shooting an Elephant”, when the narrator views the body of the Burmese man who had been creased to death in a crucifix-styled posture, he has an overwhelming attack of conscience. The narrator realizes that just like the Burmese man, the elephant had been crucified, as well, and it does not appease the narrator that his killing the elephant was within legal parameters.The narrator apprehends that the law and conscience are often not well-matched. He is there in an official capability and is hated for it by the Burmese. He equally has hated them for their anger. Yet, when he allows his morality to surface, he understands that he is part of the structure that is there to tyrannize the Burmese. The fact that he holds a position of authority does not essentially make it a moral duty. This is true of his killing the elephant. He did not want to lose face in front of the Burmese, and he was legally justified in killing it, but morally he knows that it was actually morally wrong.
