7 0

Incomplete question. However, I inferred how the phrase is used in everyday conversation.

Answer:

The situation was beyond anyone's control.

Explanation:

It is fitting to use this phrase because of what we know about Greenland, it is an area that faces extreme cold weather which is highly uncontrollable.

Thus, the phrase "at the mercy of" suggest that the weather made them vulnerable to any condition.

Describe the ways in which the socioeconomic class to which a person living in Elizabethan England belonged could be determined.
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The structure had four main classes: the Nobility, the Gentry, the Yeomanry, and the poor.

-Nobility:

Who belonged?:

Noblemen and Woman.

There were few nobles, for they acted as a threat to the monarch's power. If you were to be a part of the nobility class you were either born into it or given a grant by a king or queen. It takes high crime and treason to lose their title.

-The Gentry:

Who belonged?:

Knights, squires, gentlemen and gentlewomen whose fortunes were great enough were they did not have to work very hard for a living.

Many of them could start off as a knight, yet through marriages and generations they could build their wealth and class

-The Yeomanry

Who belonged?:

These people made up the middle class

All of them could live in a comfortable position of life, yet if famine struck they could lose everything. While the Gentry used all of their wealth on homes and such things as finary, the Yeomanry prefered to spend it more modestly.

-The Poor

Who belonged?:

These people made up the poor class of england.

They were left with no money, food, or shelter. Their numbers always increased gradually so there were laws set to assist  them.

I hope this helps(:

Why is it even more cruel that Montresor threw his torch into the niche with Fortunato?
Alex777 [14]

Montresor lures Fortunato by telling him he has obtained a pipe of Amontillado sherry. He mentions obtaining confirmation of the pipe's contents by inviting a fellow wine aficionado, Luchesi, for a private tasting. Not one to be made better of, Fortunato goes with Montresor to the wine cellars of the latter's house, where they wander in the catacombs. Montresor keeps giving Fortunato drinks to keep him drunk, finally arriving at a niche, where Montresor tells his friend that the Amontillado is within. Fortunato enters drunk and unsuspecting, allowing Montresor to chain him to the wall.

Montresor then proceeds to wall up the niche, entombing his friend alive. Fortunato sobers up faster than anticipated, though, and pleads with Montresor. Montresor ignores him and continues, eventually walling him in completely.

Notably though, in the story, Fortunato actually comes to the realization that this is actually what Montresor wants. Montresor doesn't want to murder Fortunato as much as he wants the psychological satisfaction of seeing and hearing him squirm as it dawns on him that he is going to die a slow death and he was so easily tricked into walking into this situation, and mocking him for it. In a final act of defiance, Fortunato refuses to play along at the end, and replaces his panic with cold silence. This silence catches Montresor off-balance, and its evident from narration that he was very confused and annoyed at being robbed of the chance to gloat properly, and even begins to feel "sick at heart" about what he is doing, because the sudden silence gives him no recourse but to actually consider the gravity of the act he is about to carry out. And even those fifty years later, there are still clear hints of Montresor being somewhat bitter about the fact Fortunato managed to outwit him at the end by taking all the fun out of his revenge.

Hope this helps :)

Do you believe that gothic stories can be just as impactful as other types of literature? Why or why not?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer: yes

Explanation: The goal of gothic writing was, and still is, to amuse readers and encourage self-improvement. Dark romanticism often features a lonely setting, a ghost or spirit, the usage of symbols, and a fatal illness or mental illness as the cause of death.
