The Fall of the House of Usher By Edgar Allan Poe
Shaking off what must have been a dream, I scanned more narrowly the real aspect of the building. Its principal feature seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity. The discoloration of ages had been great. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior, hanging in a fine tangled web-work from the eaves. Yet all this was apart from any extraordinary dilapidation. No portion of the masonry had fallen; and there appeared to be a wild inconsistency between its still perfect adaptation of parts, and the crumbling condition of the individual stones. In this there was much that reminded me of the specious totality of old wood-work which has rotted for long years in some neglected vault, with no disturbance from the breath of the external air. Beyond this indication of extensive decay, however, the fabric gave little token of instability. Perhaps the eye of a scrutinizing observer might have discovered a barely perceptible fissure, which, extending from the roof of the building in front, made its way down the wall in a zigzag direction, until it became lost in the sullen waters of the tarn.
Roderick Usher's poem By Edgar Allan Poe
I. In the greenest of our valleys, By good angels tenanted, Once a fair and stately palace— Radiant palace—reared its head. In the monarch Thought's dominion— It stood there! Never seraph spread a pinion Over fabric half so fair.
II. Banners yellow, glorious, golden, On its roof did float and flow; (This—all this—was in the olden Time long ago); And every gentle air that dallied, In that sweet day, Along the ramparts plumed and pallid, A winged odor went away.
III. ... And, round about his home, the glory That blushed and bloomed Is but a dim-remembered story Of the old time entombed.
IV. And travellers now within that valley, Through the red-litten windows see Vast forms that move fantastically To a discordant melody; While, like a rapid ghastly river, Through the pale door, A hideous throng rush out forever, And laugh—but smile no more.
What is a key difference between these pieces of literature?
A One describes a house while the other describes a palace.
B One describes a person, while the other describes an army.
C One describes the valley, while the other describes a palace.
D One describes the summer, while the other describes the winter.

Answer:

Chronological

Explanation:

A chronological structure is one that presents a series of events in the same order in which they happened. A chronological structure is very useful when a text needs to maintain a certain progression in order to be logical and cohesive. In this example, if the author wrote about his cancer diagnosis, and the actions that he took afterwards, the order of these events would be very important, which means that he would most likely benefit from a chronological structure.

D) Add stronger evidence.

Explanation:

When writing an essay, an author will begin by deciding what his claim is going to be, and then researching the topic in credible sources.

However, during the revision process, an author has the chance to add stronger evidence to his essay. This is important, as it gives him the opportunity to create a more persuasive text.

The correct answer is a lyric poem, characterized by heightened emotion.

One of the major achievements of the Civil Rights Movement during the 1950s was the Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education Topeka in 1954. According to this court ruling, segregated schools were illegal and black children should be allowed to attend any school as students. This court ruling was a one of the major achievements of the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s as it marked the end of the separate but equal doctrine in school that had been applied in education since Plessy v. Ferguson (1896).

To impress a potential employer, a résumé should include contact information, an objective summary, education, professional experience, and relevant skills.

A résumé is a critical marketing tool for job seekers. To impress a potential employer, your résumé should include your contact information, an objective or summary statement that matches your career goals with the needs of the employer, a detailed education section, and a professional work history. It should also highlight your skills, experience, and relevant accomplishments or certifications.

Your résumé is not just a list of past jobs; it's a showcase of your most impressive achievements relevant to the role you are seeking. The layout should be clear, concise, and error-free, focussing on substance over style. While a clean, professional design is important, the content makes résumé stand out. Remember to tailor your résumé to the job description, emphasizing how your skills and experiences make you an ideal fit for the position.

Several basic elements must always be present, including:

Answer:

All borders would stay the same

Explanation:

The most natural way to rephrase the statement using modern language is by saying that all borders would stay the same. In this excerpt, the speaker tells us that he believes anything is better than war, and that he wants to pursue this path. He believes that in order to ensure this is the case, all countries should work together. This would help them ensure that all borders stay the same and that aggressors are unable to find allies in Europe.

The answer is D

The correct option is C. The Ku Klux Klan targeted scalawags with violence because Scalawags had opposed secession and the Civil War.

- Scalawags were Southern whites who supported Reconstruction and the Republican Party after the Civil War. They were seen as traitors by many Southern whites because they had opposed secession and supported the Union during the Civil War.

- Option A: Scalawags were not Northerners; Northerners who came to the South during Reconstruction were known as carpetbaggers.

- Option B: Scalawags were not typically wealthy, former plantation owners. They were usually non-slaveholding small farmers, middle-class professionals, and others who were not part of the pre-war Southern elite.

- Option D: The White League was another white supremacist group that sought to maintain white control in the South. While some scalawags may have been involved in local politics, they were not typically powerful members of the White League.

Therefore, the primary reason the Ku Klux Klan targeted scalawags was because of their opposition to secession and their support for Reconstruction policies, which aimed to extend civil and political rights to freed slaves.

The banker is incredibly competitive and definitely out to be on top, which is what spurs the bet in the first place. During the heated conversation about the death penalty versus life in prison, the banker gets carried away by his determination to prove his point that he slams his fist on the table and says, 'I'll bet you two millions you wouldn't stay in solitary confinement for five years.' The banker is willing to go to extreme lengths to prove his point.

The banker's need to prove the point through an absurd bet and his willingness to actually confine the lawyer to solitary confinement shows the reader that he likes to be in charge. He doesn't like to be questioned. This makes sense because he is a government official and he boasts his wealth openly, which serves as a power move in front of the men at the party.

Boredom is the answer

Given a trial scene, which is often distressing, this is the scene that everyone has been anticipating. The testimony given at the crime site was unsettling and nerve-wracking.

When it comes to the trial scene, the majority of it is suspenseful, and it is the scene that people have been waiting for for a long time.

The atmosphere is tense and suspenseful as the crime scene testimony is given. It's difficult to keep the suspenseful vibe going when the trail goes on for a long time.

It's tough to sustain an unknown condition when the trip is long. After all, Tom is going to testify from Hell on Tate and Mayella.

Explanation:

Saying Burton is fond of colored people becomes ironic after a few lines being read. He does have some consideration and feeling for the motherly figure of mammy, he does think colored people are good servants. However, they must "keep their place". They should not think themselves worthy of sitting at the same table as Burton which, by the way, he wouldn't do, not even for a million dollars. Thus, we can see how such "fondness" is limited by prejudice, by the belief that a colored person's place is beneath his own.

Structural analysis is the process used to deduce the meaning of 'subterranean' by breaking it down into its prefix ('sub-'), root ('terra'), and suffix ('-an'), meaning 'underground'.

The process of deducing the meaning of the word subterranean by breaking it into its parts (prefix, root, and suffix) is known as structural analysis. This method allows you to understand the meaning of words by examining their components, such as prefixes and suffixes, and how they modify the root of the words. For subterranean, 'sub-' means 'under', 'terra' refers to 'earth' or 'ground', and '-an' means 'relating to', combining to mean 'relating to under the ground' or 'underground'. An example in anatomical terms pointing to a similar process is the word 'hypertension', where 'hyper-' means 'high' or 'over', and 'tension' refers to 'pressure', resulting in the meaning 'abnormally high blood pressure'. This analysis is distinctly different from identifying meaning through context clues, phonetic analysis, or dictionary skills.
