Which two words from the excerpt best contribute to the Gothic mood and tone of the story?
The Fall of the House of Usher
by Edgar Allan Poe

Having deposited our mournful burden upon tressels within this region of horror, we partially turned aside the yet unscrewed lid of the coffin, and looked upon the face of the tenant. A striking similitude between the brother and sister now first arrested my attention; and Usher, divining, perhaps, my thoughts, murmured out some few words from which I learned that the deceased and himself had been twins, and that sympathies of a scarcely intelligible nature had always existed between them. Our glances, however, rested not long upon the dead—for we could not regard her unawed. The disease which had thus entombed the lady in the maturity of youth, had left, as usual in all maladies of a strictly cataleptical character, the mockery of a faint blush upon the bosom and the face, and that suspiciously lingering smile upon the lip which is so terrible in death.

Word choices:
horror
arrested
murmured
unawed
entombed
mockery
lingering

How do morals and values come into play with regard to substance use/abuse and recovery?

Answers

Answer:

When drug or alcohol abuse consumes a person’s life, one of the first things to go is the person’s ability to make rational, moral choices. He (or she) can no longer make the kind of simple judgments that the unaddicted can make easily. The addict will feel that getting and using drugs is more important than caring for his or her children, holding a job or being a responsible citizen. That is the kind of domination that addictive drug cravings have over the addict. It’s like the addict is in prison with no possibility of escape.

the Fifteenth Amendment by stating that

Answers

Answer:

The Supreme Court decision approved the Fifteenth Amendment, stating that any citizen could vote regardless of color, race, or history of servitude.

Explanation:

The texts show that the American Supreme Court decided to approve suffrage for blacks, that is, the Supreme Court decided that it was illegal to prohibit blacks, who were now free citizens, from voting. This gave rise to the fifteenth amendment that declared that every American citizen could vote, regardless of their color, race, or history of servitude.

This moment is reinforced in the second text, where the supreme court prohibits Texas from preventing blacks from voting, saying that this attitude is unconstitutional.

We do talk about Christopher McCandless in Alaska. We talk about him a lot. We can’t help ourselves. Mostly the discussion is in response to the book, and mostly it is not favorable because of the way McCandless stars as a romantic hero. Krakauer described McCandless as searching for something beyond his privileged but disappointing middle-class existence. “It would be easy to stereotype Christopher McCandless as another boy who felt too much, a loopy young man who read too many books and lacked even a modicum of common sense,” Krakauer wrote. “But the stereotype isn’t a good fit. McCandless wasn’t some feckless slacker, adrift and confused, racked by existential despair. To the contrary: His life hummed with meaning and purpose. But the meaning he wrested from existence lay beyond the comfortable path: McCandless distrusted the value of things that came easily. He demanded much of himself—more, in the end, than he could deliver.”

What effect do the first three sentences of this paragraph have?
A.
They provide evidence that McCandless is a sad but inevitable casualty of his misguided ideals.
B.
They set a mood of obsession and excitement.
C.
They establish the “voice” of the Alaskan community that has been annoyed by all of the publicity surrounding Chris McCandless.
D.
They support the idea that Chris McCandless has become somewhat of a hero figure for Alaskans.
E.
They establish a tone of disgust and resentment for the paragraph.
