Which of the following passages best expresses Mark Twain's purpose in "A Cub Pilot"? There is one faculty which a pilot must in

cessantly cultivate until he has brought it to absolute perfection. Nothing short of perfection will do. That faculty is memory. He [a pilot] must have good and quick judgment and decision, and a cool, calm courage that no peril can shake. "You shouldn't have allowed me or anybody else to shake your confidence in that knowledge. Try to remember that." I had become a good steersman; so good, indeed, that I had all the work to do on our watch, night and day.

klemol [59]

Answer:

"Like much of Poe's fiction, 'The Tell-Tale Heart' is told by an unreliable narrator. This forces the reader to draw their own conclusion about the truthfulness of the narrator instead of taking the narrator's words at face value, as readers often do in fiction."
