My class is doing a court case on Tell-tale Heart. I need 15 questions for people in the room. Please read the tell-tale heart then think of questions that could help me win my case against the narrator. Come up with 5 questions that I (the lawyer) could use against the narrator.

Answers

Answer 1

If you need different questions from the ones below, let me know and I will try my best to assist.

Questions to use against the narrator:

You yourself entertained the thought that you might be insane, but ultimately brush it aside. You express that you have no reason to kill the man, yet you kill him. This contradiction is proof that while you were insane, you knew what you did was wrong. Why not seek help?

If you truly felt remorse for your actions, why was your first instinct to dispose of the body rather than to immediately confess to your crime?

You spent more than a week setting up this murder. This was not a spur of the moment murder. It was premeditated. Can you justify this? Does this not prove you to be a guilty individual?

You express taking pride in your work. Is this something that a stable, innocent person would do?

Questions for the room:

(I apologize, but I could only come up with ten.)

Is the narrator reliable?

Were his actions justified?

Was his guilt genuine, or was it just an attribute of his psychosis?

Was he truly seeing the ‘evil eye’?

Even if he was, is fear a reason to murder?

Is the beating of the heart evidence of insanity?

He talked about his feelings of power and excitement breaking into the old man’s chamber. Does this not further prove that he should be imprisoned?

Does that not prove that he is not only a murderer, but a person who enjoys the act of killing?

Should a person of this type not be punished and placed where they cannot hurt another person?

This man dismembered a human. If you found a body that had been ripped apart, you would want the person who did it to be put away right?

Write a two- to three-sentence objective summary

Medieval culture has never fully disappeared from popular culture. Judging by the large number of medieval-themed books and movies, it's more popular than ever. Much like today, the characters in these medieval works all had clearly defined jobs or roles to play. Like today's occupations, these roles were all part of a process of career growth. For example, knights only became knights after a long, three-step process. If, at the age of seven, a boy displayed very good manners, smarts, and courage, his parents might decide they wanted him to become a knight. He would spend the next seven years as a page, performing simple duties such as helping knights with their horses and armor. After completing training as a page at around age 14, the boy would become a squire. A squire took on more responsibility and received more hands-on instruction in fighting and battle strategy. He would sometimes ride into battle with a knight and assist him. In some cases, the squire would even be required to fight in the knight's place if the knight was injured. At the age of 21, the squire was eligible to become a knight. First, he had to prove himself worthy by showing great bravery, wisdom, and devotion. worthy, he would be knighted in a ceremony where he vowed to protect his kingdom. Knights perform very different tasks from doctors, teachers, or professional athletes, but in each of these careers, there is a long process with clearly defined steps for moving up. Perhaps this is one of the reasons medieval culture has always fascinated us — it has a sense of order that never went out of style

Answers

So, Medieval culture you will still see it today. Such as when you read a book or a Medieval themed movie it’s there you just might have to use your brain to find it. The reason being Medieval culture is still here is because the order of it the principles of it if you will fascinate us to great lengths making us reach a little bit farther into our creative outlooks.
Medieval culture can be found today. It is found in books, movies, play’s, and more. Because of this past, people can be affected by it. They can be inspired by the past which adds up to it being in today’s culture.

Change this sentence to correctly include a restrictive phrase.

Because he hit the winning run, everyone crowded around the pitcher.

Everyone crowded around the pitcher, the ball player who hit the winning run.

Everyone crowded around the pitcher because he hit the winning run.

Everyone crowded around the ball player who hit the winning run.

Answers

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Everyone crowded around the ball player who hit the winning run

Answer:

The sentence that correctly includes a restrictive phrase is:

A. Everyone crowded around the ball player who hit the winning run.

Explanation:

A restrictive clause is a relative clause that provides essential information about a noun or noun phrase, limiting it. It can also be called defining relative clause. A restrictive clause is not set off by commas. The option that has information about the ball player that is not set off by commas is:

A. Everyone crowded around the ball player who hit the winning run.

When we have a restrictive clause removed, the sentence loses part of its meaning. If we remove "who hit the winning run," the rest of the sentence could be referring to any ball player. Therefore, this information is crucial because it specifies to which ball player we refer.

Note: Option B does not have commas as well, but it uses the conjunction "because", which does not form a restrictive clause.

Thesis Statement:
Our local waterways are severely polluted, and actions must be taken to reduce the runoff that contributes to this pollution.

1) Rain gardens are particularly useful near solid surfaces such as parking lots.

2) Rain gardens are located in 30 percent of the residential parkways in Allentown, Ill.

3) Rain gardens include plants and materials that help absorb water into the ground before it is washed into sewers.

4) Rain gardens are a natural way to reduce storm water runoff that pollutes local waterways

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

you're starting off the paragraph that connects to the thesis, connecting that it reduces storm water runoff to how actions must be taken to reduce it. 1 is just a statement that to put it somewhere solid, 2 is a too specific fact, and 3 is the explantation. you would want 3 farther in on your paragraph rather than your opener.

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the proportionate connection theory to model these two tables, we may conclude the first table is proportionate whereas the second is not.

Clara's configuration:

To determine whether a relationship is proportionate, perform the following tests:                  

Yes, there seems to be a proportional relationship. Hector's set-up is as follows:              

The number of yellow flowers always out-numbers the number of white blooms by a factor of 2. As a result, the relationship could be modeled as follows;            

As a result, the relationship is not proportionate.

Part A is B and Part B is A I think might be wrong though

A.In my opinion, the answer could possibly be A. I don't know the full context of this passage, but it could be that A is correct. However, the second paragraph especially gives me the hint that B is more accurate here.  

B. In what I understood, this is correct. This is because it is clear that a battle was won here, as they seemed to have been struggling with getting approved to come to America. I think B is correct.

C.Although this may be true, and it may even be true specifically for the rest of this book, the short passage provided gives no negative connotation to it. It is a positive passage, and so the idea of life being difficult was never brought up. This is incorrect.

D. You have to be careful when looking at problems like this, because it's small words that indicate the correct/incorrect answer. The use of the phrase "promise of a great future" guarantees something that will not be true every time. So, this is incorrect.

Let me know if I was correct!

Golden Days

by Lizzie Lawson

There are days of summer sunshine,
Of warm and sunny weather,
When the hedge is full of hawthorn
And hills are glad with heather.

There are days of silent sadness,
Of frost, and snow, and rain,
When we fear that summer's gladness
Will never come again.

And now our songs are minor key,
And now in merry tune;
The windward side will change to lee,
And January to June.

Day and night the sun is shining,
Though he may hide his head;
Each cloud has a silver lining,
The flowers are asleep not dead.

Every day may have its playtime
Made bright by cheerful lays;
And life be one long Maytime,
A year of golden days.
