One thing that makes the Peachtree Road Race special is that it takes place each year on Independence Day. (1) American flags ar

e waved down Peachtree Street, and nearly everywhere red, white, and blue is seen. Many runners choose to wear stars-and-stripes as a part of their racing outfit, but no one is allowed to wear costumes in this serious race. That means no Statues of Liberty are officially allowed running down the road, as with other large festive races such as the Bay-to-Breakers 12K in San Francisco. (2) Because the Peachtree is run on a holiday, most people have the day off. (3) They either run the race or cheer on the runners from either side of the street. There are tens of thousands of spectators all along the course.
Which of these statements BEST summarizes the main idea of paragraph 2?

A)
Spectators and runners both make the race special.


B)
The race is different than other races run on holidays.


C)
People dress patriotically to celebrate Independence Day.


D)
The Peachtree is special because it is run on an important holiday

What helps a literary critic determine a story's complex theme
avanturin [10]
What helps a literary critic determine a story's complex theme are the specific details within the story.
These details are what makes a story complex or simple - if there aren't enough details (or if there are, but they are pretty obvious to figure out), then a story would be simple. But if the details are difficult to understand and need to be explored and researched thoroughly, then it would be a complex story.

Answer:

Taken from the ending part of the short story "The Black cat" by Edgar Allen Poe, the lines tell of the alcoholic protagonist's happiness in finding that the cat responsible for the incidental murder of his wife is nowhere to be seen in his house anymore.

Explanation:

Edgar Allen Poe's short story "The Black Cat" tells the story of an unnamed protagonist who is an alcoholic. His drunken act of killing his pet cat Pluto and then later on even his accidental murder of his wife leads to the situation he is in the start of he story- convicted to death.

The given excerpt is form the ending part of the story where he had successfully walled in his wife's corpse. He could't find the cat, he second pet cat, who had been the initial cause of the act. The lines show just how relieved he was to see that he could no longer find "<em>the monster</em>" in is house. But with this admission, he seems to be implying that he was free of the moral obligations in he society in general. This speech gave him he all clear in the murderous act, but which will in fact, return to haunt him and bring him to justice.
