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.

We break down the functions of women in Gilead, as the government attempts to redefine them.

How does Beowulf boast to Lord Hrothgar?
BartSMP [9]
He basically gives him his resume, or all the heroic things he has done in the past, such as: he has never been defeated, he has saved many people, he talks about how he lost the swimming match to his friend Brecca because he stopped to help him against sea monsters which attacked him, etc.
These boasts are here for Beowulf to show to Lord Hrothgar that he is worthy of defending his kingdom against the monster Grendel.

c. Abigail claims that Mary’s form is coming to her in the shape of an evil bird. 8

e. The girls repeat Mary’s words in an annoying chant. 9

g. Reverend Hale quits the court. 10

Explanation:

Arthur Miller's <em>The Crucible</em> is a play that revolves around the Salem witch trials of 1962 where young girls were accused of partaking with the devil. The play delved deep into the community of Salem where people were wrongfully accused of the black arts and sentenced to death.

Act 3 is in the courtroom where the case was heard before Judge Danforth. Francis and Giles burst into the courtroom with 'evidence' but ended up making things worse.

John Proctor had come with Mary when he learned that his wife Elizabeth who's being held imprisoned is pregnant.

Mary then decides to tell the truth but when Abigail and the other girls came to the room, they all accused Mary of acting on them.

Abigail claims that a cold wind is engulfing her, indirectly accusing Mary of the act.

Then John Proctor told the court about his adultery with Abigail, which his wife denies.

When Elizabeth is summoned and asked about the lechery, she denies, which John then told her he's confessed.

Then Abigail and the girls began to act like they see a black evil bird coming towards them, and repeat whatever Mary says.

All of it was too much for Rev. hale who decided to quit the courtroom.
