This is for “the tell-tales heart”

Answer: I have briefly read the book but here is my answer:

Explanation:I think that it is because the old mans heart beats were the reason of the narrators breakdown. They were pressuring the narrator to tell the truth. It was almost as if the old man was still alive persuading the narrator to tell the truth, but the old man didn’t need to do that. He only needed the narrators anxiety issues to do that. Between the eye, the anxiety, the heart beat, even the police, the narrator felt trapped in his own web that has been weaved every time be even looked at the old man. This story is about anxiety, remorse, sadness, guilt. The old man didn’t need to tell on the narrator. The narrator did that himself. In conclusion, it’s called “the tell-tales heart” because it was the heart that told on the narrator to the police, at least not directly. When we think of tell-tale, we think of someone who tells on people and exposes them, that is exactly what the heart did, but he did it in a way that would guilt and posses the narrator to do it himself. The purpose of the story is that no matter how much you try to run away, it will always catch up to you, whether it’s guilt, your past, your enemies. At one point you have to face it, before it’s too late.

Hope this helps!

What makes Kennedy stand out over Nixon?
lapo4ka [179]

What made Kennedy stand out was his use of a striking black suit.

<h3>Why was Kennedy's outfit important?</h3>
  • Because he gave an air of authority to the public.
  • Because it made his image more striking and expressive than Nixon's.
  • Because it attracts the attention of the public.

The question is referring to the debate held between Nixon and Kennedy during the presidential race in 1960. The debate was televised and photographed, allowing the entire American population to see and hear the two candidates. However, color media was not popular at the time and people viewed the debate and its participants in black and white.

This was advantageous for Kennedy who wore a black suit, while Nixon wore a gray suit. This made Kennedy's image stand out and catch the public's attention more effectively.
