Answer:

Part A: foreshadowing

Part B: to build suspense

Explanation:

In the sentences from "The Cask of Amontillado," the author Edgar Allan Poe makes use of foreshadowing as a warning of the future events in which Montresor murders Fortunato by immurement. In that respect, the dampness of the cellar makes Fortunato cough first, so his expression that he will not die because of a cough creates uncertainty. In fact, coughing involves expelling air, which he will lack after Montresor entombs him. Besides, Montresor pretends to be worried about Fortunato's health, when in fact he intends to kill him.

Read the following passage and answer the question that follows.
amm1812

The properly formatted example is the last one:

Romans were very particular in their dining habits. They reclined on "special couches" (Phin 429).

For an in-text citation in Modern Language Association (MLA) style, you give a  parenthetical reference to your source by an author name and page number.  The full information about that author and source will be included in your bibliography.

So in the examples shown, the third example is incorrect because it only lists a page number, not the author name.

The second example shown is incorrect because it splits apart the reference to the author (Phin) from the reference to the page number (429).

The first example is close to correct, but is punctuated incorrectly.  The in-text citation in MLA style is considered part of the sentence, so the period goes at the very end of the whole sentence, which means after the reference (Phin 429).

Thus the fourth example shown is the only one that is fully correct in its format.
