English

Okay so gerunds are a form that is derived from a verb but that functions as a noun, in English ending in -ing, example would be like asking in 'do you mind my asking you?'

So the first one would be 'giggling', then the second one would be 'fixing.'

the next two would be a bit harder because there are no words that have a prefix of -ing, but im not to sure about them because i dont think they have a gerund in them...

but the next ones are, 'laughing' and 'squinting'

sorry i couldnt help with all of them.

Answer:

Told in the first person by an Italian aristocrat, “The Cask of Amontillado” engages the reader by making him

or her a confidant to Montresor’s macabre tale of revenge. The victim is Fortunato, who, the narrator claims,

gave him a thousand injuries that he endured patiently, but when Fortunato dared insult him, he vowed

revenge. It must be a perfect revenge, one in which Fortunato will know fully what is happening to him and in

which Montresor will be forever undetected. To accomplish it, Montresor waits until carnival season, a time

of “supreme madness,” when Fortunato, already half-drunk and costumed as a jester, is particularly

vulnerable. Montresor then informs him that he has purchased a pipe of Amontillado wine but is not sure he

has gotten the genuine article. He should, he says, have consulted Fortunato, who prides himself on being an

expert on wine, adding that because Fortunato is engaged, he will go instead to Luchesi. Knowing his victim’s

vanity, Montresor baits him by saying that some fools argue that Luchesi’s taste is as fine as Fortunato’s. The

latter is hooked, and Montresor conducts him to his empty palazzo and leads him down into the family

catacombs, all the while plying him with drink. Through underground corridors with piles of skeletons

alternating with wine casks, Montresor leads Fortunato, whose jester’s bells jingle grotesquely in the funereal

atmosphere. In the deepest crypt there is a small recess, and there Montresor chains Fortunato to a pair of iron

staples and then begins to lay a wall of stone and mortar, with which he buries his enemy alive. While he does

so, he relishes the mental torment of his victim, whom he then leaves alone in the dark, waiting in terror for

his death.
