Which of the following excerpts from the short story “The Tell-Tale Heart” by Edgar Allan Poe best demonstrates the unreliabilit

y of the narrator?
A.
You should have seen how wisely I proceeded—with what caution—with what foresight—with what dissimulation I went to work!
B.
I heard many things in hell. How, then, am I mad? Hearken! and observe how healthily—how calmly I can tell you the whole story.
C.
And then, when I had made an opening sufficient for my head, I put in a dark lantern, all closed, closed, that no light shone out, and then I thrust in my head.
D.
Oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly I thrust it in! I moved it slowly—very, very slowly, so that I might not disturb the old man's sleep.

the answer is:

B) I heard many things in hell. How, then, am I mad? Hearken! and observe how healthily—how calmly I can tell you the whole story.

He asks the reader how they could think him mad. This shows that he is unreliable because he says something, but then contradicts it through his actions.

Answer:

B.  A faster pace would have been more appropriate for the speech’s content and audience.

Explanation:

Mateo is speaking to the audience and refers to the audience as US indicating he is talking to fellow students about the injustice of the strict snow days.

Children are more likely to get bored listening to a talker with a professional tone or if the speaker is being more casual then the audience would think the speech is not important allowing the audience to miss the speech before it has even begun.

But by making the speech faster you are allowing the audience to begin to believe on their own about the injustice and it begins to work up their blood pressure.

Hitler was very good at getting the people to believe in what he wished because he made his speeches short and fast.

How did philadelphia's machine control voting?
natali 33 [55]
<span>The political machine in Philadelphia basically used intimidation to control the election process. They also used psychology-- people did not vote because they felt helpless, and they felt the machine would control the process anyways, so people simply did not fight back.</span>
