Part I:
The official crafted the regulations in such a way that he and his henchmen could break them with impunity.
Having to finish my homework precludes receiving an ample of sleep.
After being ejected from the game, the star player accosted the referee.
The instructions on the first page of the test were explicit about what one can and cannot do.
After the tragedy, the President implored the nation to stay united and resilient.
Part II:
Question 3:
While walking in the catacombs and having a conversation, Montresor repeatedly uses reverse psychology to intrigue Fortunato’s interest in the Amontillado by invoking the name of Luchresi. Thus bribed with the promise of Amontillado and the idea that he is the only one who can help Montresor, …show more content…
When Montresor states “...in recognizing as that of the noble Fortunato,” I think, in fact, that he gained respect for Fortunato again (“noble”) and now feels guilty for killing him. When Montresor is having his last conversation with Fortunato, after the last sentence where he says “‘...for the love of God…’”, he thinks, “But to these words I hearkened in vain for a reply. I grew impatient…” I also imagine he wants for Fortunato to return to him as he probably regrets having cheated and tricked him. This is again emphasized when Montresor “...thrust[s] a torch through the remaining aperture and let[s] it fall within...” Lastly, Montresor is still sick at heart and feels incomplete as he says “I hastened to make an end of my labour…” and I believe that Montresor still feels Fortunato is a good person when he exclaims “In pace requiescat!” which means “Rest in peace!” Montresor now probably believes all the praising statements he made about Fortunato during his reverse-psychology session. To resolve his conflict, Montresor could have instead humiliated Fortunato to a greater point so that Fortunato knows that he has been embarrassed instead of taking the extreme approach of …show more content…
Montresor is obviously also bitter and hateful towards Fortunato: “A thousand injuries I had suffered...” he claims in the opening sentence, thus giving the reader an insane justification for his actions against wrongdoings that he believe must be avenged. Then, when Fortunato makes the sign of a Freemason, Montresor returns by showing him his trowel and enjoys his gruesome pun on the word (stone)mason (trowels are used to spread plaster for stone). Poe uses this mood to gently and suspensefully build up to the climax, as we know from the beginning that Montresor intends to kill Fortunato, but we do not explicitly realize in what way that he plans to do it, “A moment more and I had fettered him to the granite,” by leaving him underground to
