I'm pretty sure that the narrator of " The tell-tale Heart' views his disease positively, and that the narrator of " The black Cat" is the opposite.
What would happen to writing if paragraphs didn't exist is that when the reader reads the writing, he/she might skip a sentence or even get confused. And then you might not understand it yourself. It can affect the reader by not understanding what is going on in the writing if it's a story.
<span>Superstitious people might do many odd things because they believe in luck, or bad luck. So, they may retrace their steps if a black cat crosses their path, they may not want to walk under a ladder because it is sad to bring bad luck, they may be scared when their mirror cracks because it is believed to bring 7 years of bad luck. They may do many things to get out of a possible bad situation, or induce a good thing to happen to them.</span>
