Read the following excerpt from "the cask of amontillado" and answer question
the thousand injuries of fortunato i had borne as i best could, but when he ventured upon insult i vowed
revenge. you, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, that gave utterance to a
threat. at length i would be avenged, this was a point definitely, settled -but the very definitiveness with
which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk. i must not only punish, but punish with impunity. a wrong is
unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. it is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to
make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong.
it must be understood that neither by word nor deed had i given fortunato cause to doubt my good will. i
continued, as was my in to smile in his face, and he did not perceive that my smile now was at the thought of
his immolation.
what character tralt is revealed about montresor in the passage above?
1. he feels it is important to conduct himself as a gentleman.
2. he has the ability to be conniving and manipulative.
3. he has always behaved kindly towards fortunato.
4 .he has the ability to overlook wrongs in order to preserve relationships.

explanatithe story "two kinds" , revolves around a strict relationship between a mother and daughter. the mother tries very hard to make sure her daughter jing mei , is successful in life and lives up to her full potential. the story explores alot of different themes. though , there is one theme that really stands out. you cant force someone to be something that their not.

jing mei's mother was an immagrant from china. she moved to the united states to give her daughter , jing mei , a better and successful life for her. and being raised in china with their strict rules and striving to be perfect took a toll on her and her daughters relationship. she pressures her daughter to be great and perfect all the time but it gets really hard for her to live up to her mothers standards. her mother believes that jing mei can be a child prodigy and prepares her to be and act like one. furthermore , the story ends with jing mei getting everything off her chest and seeing the dissappointment in her mothers eyes as she finds out her daughter has not lived up to her full potential. and her mother has finally gained an understanding of her daughter.
