This question is incomplete. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Multiple choice question:

Select the choice which best identifies the given passage from "The Cask of Amontillado."

"I forced the last stone into its position; I plastered it up. Against the new masonry I re-erected the old rampart of bones. For the half of a century no mortal has disturbed them."

A. Irony/sarcasm

B. Setting

C. Characterization

D. Tragic resolution

Answer:

The option that best identifies the passage is:

D. Tragic resolution

Explanation:

<u>In literature, resolution is what comes after the climax, when the conflicts have been solved and things have worked out.</u> In the short story "The Cask of Amontillado", by Edgar Allan Poe, the climax takes place when the main character and narrator, Montresor, is "burying" his friend alive by chaining him to a wall and building another wall to keep him trapped inside. The resolution is precisely the passage we were given:

"I forced the last stone into its position; I plastered it up. Against the new masonry I re-erected the old rampart of bones. For the half of a century no mortal has disturbed them."

<u>The narrator is letting us know what happens after the climax. It is quite tragic since his friend indeed dies and no one ever finds out about Montresor's crime. The conflict ends in death and impunity.</u>

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

O Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling

From glen to glen and down the mountainside.

The summer's gone and all the roses falling.

'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.

But come ye back when summer's in the meadow,

Or all the valley's hushed and white with snow.

'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow.

O Danny Boy, O Danny Boy, I love you so.

When winter's come and all the flow'rs are dying,

And I am dead, as dead I well may be,

You'll come and find the place where I am lying

And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me.

But I shall hear, though soft you tread above me,

And all my grave shall warmer, sweeter be.

And you will bend and tell me that you love me;

And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me.

O Danny Boy, the stream flows cool and slowly;

And pipes still call and echo 'cross the glen.

Your broken mother sighs and feels so lowly,

For you have not returned to smile again.

So if you've died and crossed the stream before us,

We pray that angels met you on the shore;

And you'll look down, and gently you'll implore us

To live so we may see your smiling face once more,

Once more
