Memorial Day is to thank the veterans and people who died in the military. So when we stop for a moment of silence we show the people who fought for our country respect and we thank them for what they did. What did they do? They fought in the war for us they have did plenty things so Memorial Day is about respecting those who have died and and veterans, and people who are in the military for what they have done. Happy Memorial Day!

In "The tell tale- heart"by Edgar Allan Poe ,what does the beating heart that the narrator heard symbolize
Sonja [21]
In "Tell Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe, the beating heart the narrator heard symbolizes, at least in my opinion, the narrator's guilt. 
He killed a man, and he kept hearing his beating heart, even though it was impossible. He kept hearing it because he felt guilty because he murdered a person, and he had to come clean to the police officers in some way. If he hadn't, he would go completely mad, and his crime would go unpunished, probably.
