The correct answers are B. How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle; D. From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells; and E. To the rhyming and the chiming of the bells!

Explanation:

Onomatopoeia is widely used in poetry and other literary works to represent natural sounds such as the sounds of animals or non-natural sounds such as the sound of an ambulance through words that resemble real sounds. The use of onomatopoeia allows the reader to recreate or imagine the sounds of the elements described by the writer. In the case of "The Bells" by Edgar Allan Poe this can be seen in different lines including "tinkle, tinkle, tinkle", " he jingling and the tinkling of the bells" and " rhyming and the chiming" because these include words such as "jingle" or "tinkle" that represent or resemble the sounds of bells.

Question 1:

Humorous passage 1: "It (the umbrella) was made to be carried on the arm like an enormous ornamental bat and to allow one the opportunity to put on British airs as the atmospheric conditions demanded."

Humorous passage 2: "(The umbrella is) An item to be carried in the street, to be used to startle friends and—in the worst of cases—to fend off one’s creditors."

Question 2:

Passage 1 is funny because it compares the umbrella to an ornamental bat, which sounds weird in the first place. Plus, the umbrellas is said to be used by people who want to seem British, which is even more outrageously funny.

Passage 2 is funny because it treats the umbrella as a scary object which can be used even to fend off people you owe money to, which is absurd.

In both passages, the author uses tone and voice in a very witty way: he speaks seriously about absurdity, about unimaginable stuff. It is like an encyclopedia of weird and fun facts. That is what makes it funny: the contrast between a serious tone and larger than life images.

In night describe what moshe said happened to him and to the others

Nostrana [21]

Moishe the Beadle, who is a foreign Jew, is expelled from Sighet (which is in Hungary) and sent to Poland. There, the Gestapo takes over his train and orders Jews to get off and board trucks. They are taken to woods near the Galician forest and told to get out of the trucks and dig deep trenches. Then the Gestapo soldiers order each person to approach the trenches and bear his or her neck, and each person is shot. Babies are tossed into the air and used for target practice. Moishe is able to escape because he was shot in the leg and believed to be dead.

Moishe returns to Sighet to warn the community of the fate that awaits them so that they can prepare. He says, "I wanted to return to Sighet to describe to you my death so that you might ready yourselves while there is still time" (page 7). However, no one in Sighet believes him, and they think he is insane. They do not heed his warning.
