How do carnival traditions add to the mood of the story?

English
1 answer:
jolli1 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

C. The wild parties, masks, and hidden faces create a mood of secrecy and unease.

Explanation:

Edgar Allen Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" is a short story that revolves around the revenge plan of Montresor on his friend Fortunato. The story ends with the successful 'killing/punishment' of Fortunato after he gets walled-in by Montresor.

The scene takes place during a wild carnival night which adds to the irony of the whole story. Yet, it also adds to the secretive nature of the plan, the 'other side' of how Montresor presents himself to be. While on the one hand, the carnival represents the festive and merry mood of the scene, it also acts as a foil and occasion for Montresor to successfully lure Fortunato into his trap- that of inviting him to taste-test his acquired wine. Montresor admits that despite his plans of hurting his friend, he <em>"was so pleased to see him" </em>when he approached him.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

15) According to Warner, what makes a newspaper popular?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

What makes a newspaper popular is its subject matter, its visual appeal, and commenting on events for as long as possible.

Explanation:

Newspapers are the main source of information worldwide. Although today most of the people access the news through television or the internet, most of this news is in turn taken from the main newspapers in the area of influence.

For this reason, it is necessary that the newspapers develop their news in an appropriate way, which will give them the popularity necessary to capture the majority of public opinion through their news.

In this sense, some parameters to generate a greater impact and capture a greater part of the public are, among others, the treatment of matters of general interest and broad public knowledge; the use of visual strategies that generate immediate impact and interest; and the development of news in a comprehensive and complete way.
