Answer:

The characters reflect these beliefs by trying to defend their own cultural identities, without trying to understand each other's identities.

Explanation:

In "The Joy Luck Club" we get to see the concept of "generational decline" when daughters refuse to participate and to understand the cultural heritage that their Chinese mothers try to subject them to. The daughters see the Chinese cultural heritage as a way of meddling in their lives and as a way of trying to misrepresent their identity as Americans. On the other hand, mothers have a Chinese cultural identity and believe that regulating that identity is disrespectful, since daughters are part of that identity as well.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Repetition in "the raven" gives the sensation of dark and dreary mood, the word<em> "nevermore"</em> is repeated at the end or nearly every stanza.

Repetition of consonant sounds is here:<em> "and the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain"</em>. This consonance let people know what Poe was thinking when he wrote the text.

Point of view is the despair of the man and the echo of his sadness throughout the whole poem.

Read these sentences from "The Cask of Amontillado."
earnstyle [38]

Answer: The right answer is foreshadowing.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that by hinting at what may happen in the future—Fortunato will eventually die, and indeed not of a cough, but by being buried alive—Poe is employing foreshadowing. Fortunato says that his cough will not kill him, to what Montresor replies "true—true," since he well knows that that's not going to be the cause of his death. An humiliated and vindictive Montresor will bury him alive. This technique keeps the reader engaged and interested.
