Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually the 3) “The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge.”

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that the other options do not specifically reflect the value that Montresor places on his reputation. Option 2 is a description of the Carnival costume and option 4 is an opinion about Montresor's family. In addition, in option 1 Montresor is stressing that, in relation to Fortunato, he has always acted moved by good will, but there is no reference to the value that he places on his reputation. It is only in option 3 where he hints at it—he tolerated Fortunato's endless injuries, but he could not accept being offended by him.

According to author Stephen Covey, effective communication is driven by:
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

<em>Seeking first to understand, then to be understood</em>

Explanation:

<em>Seek first to understand, then to be understood </em>is the fifth habit Stephen Covey lists in his book <em>The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.</em><em> </em>He believes that to be the key to effective interpersonal communication. According to him, most people first want to be understood; to get their point across. That may lead to ignoring the other person completely, selectively listening while just waiting for a chance to reply, without any intent to truly understand. Before giving our opinion, we should listen carefully and try to understand the other person. As, according to Covey, many people don't have this habit, we can often hear someone (especially the youth) say that no one understands how they feel.
