Answer:
PROMPT 1:
The questions seeks to know how the different young mens and their fathers' personalities affected the events of the 2 stories. The commonality between the 2 stories is that they both involve young men who are worried about their fathers' disapproval of their wives. The question asks how this happened even if the young men and their fathers have different personalities. Focus on how their personalities affected what happened in the 2 stories. A completely hypothetical example is because one of the young men was very unsociable, it was difficult for him to talk to his father about his wife which led to his fathers' non-acceptance of the wife.
PROMT 2:
In "A Meeting in the Dark", the young man in the story opted to kill the woman the claims that he loves for fear of being found out by his father. The woman was pregnant with is child. The young man was very selfish because he wanted to be held in high esteem in society. He prefer to commit murder than be seen as someone other than what image he presented to the community.
Explanation:
1. a focus on fear and horror
2. an exploration of strong emotions
3. a reliance on mystery and suspense
Poe creates fear, horror, mystery, and suspense when the narrator says that he killed the old man, then describes the events leading up to the old man's death. He explores the strong emotions or the narrator's madness as well. There are no supernatural creatures or events in the passage or in the entire story so 4 and 5 are completely incorrect.
