Answer:
As a cloud goes over a mountain, it rises. As air rises, it expands because there is less atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes. ... Cool air holds less mois- ture, rain falls and the cloud loses moisture. After it passes over the mountain, it drops down in elevation and the air becomes compressed and becomes warmer.
Mountains can have a significant effect on rainfall. When air reaches the mountains, it is forced to rise over this barrier. As the air moves up the windward side of a mountain, it cools, and the volume decreases. As a result, humidity increases and orographic clouds and precipitation can develop.

There is no reason to claim Montresor is insane except the element in his disclosure. He says that fortunato injured him a thousand times but doesn't give any example on how and why.Some readers conclude that he hasn't been injured and that he is delusional <span>If Montresor has not been injured, then he is insane. But Poe could not have left the question of his sanity or insanity to hinge on a few words in the opening sentence of his story: "The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as best I could, etc." If Poe wanted the reader to believe Montresor is insane, his creator would have given further evidence throughout the story. </span><span />

Answer:
C.
Explanation:
"A Call Loan" and "A Retrieved Reformation" are short stories written by O Henry.
O Henry, known for his endings with a twist, justifies this title in these two stories as well. Both the stories end with a twist and sudden resolution of conflicts. In 'A Retrieved Reformation,' the conflict ends coincidently when Ben Price pretends not to know Valentine. In 'A Call Loan,' the story ends coincidently when Merwin and Longley return only to find that cattle have been sold for $29,000.
So, the correct answer is option C.
In the spring of 1846, a group of nearly 90 emigrants left Springfield, Illinois, and headed west. Led by brothers Jacob and George Donner, the group attempted to take a new and supposedly shorter route to California. They soon encountered rough terrain and numerous delays, and they eventually became trapped by heavy snowfall high in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Purportedly reduced to cannibalism to survive through the winter, only half of the original group reached California the following year. Their story quickly spread, and before long the term “Donner Party” became synonymous with one of humanity’s most ingrained taboos.
