1. Characterization. Poe describes the character of Fortunato in just a couple of sentences.

2. Setting. In this passage the author creates the macabre ambient and scenery that normally represents his short stories.

3. Tragic resolution. Even though it sounds ironic, this phrase said by Fortunato wasn't meant to be sarcastic, he is serious when he says he won't die of a cough. The tragic resolution of the character is actually what makes this passage sound ironic, Fortunato doesn't know he's about to die, a much more horrible death.

"The cask of Amontillado" is the story of a fatal person taking revenge on his friend thinking that his friend has insulted him. Scholars noticed that Montresor's reasons for revenge are unclear and that he may simply be insane.

The best choice identifying the given passage is:

1. Characterization. Poe describes the character of Fortunato in just a couple of sentences. These couple of sentences just describes the behavior and narration of the Fortunato. 2. Setting. The author creates some of the macabre ambient and scenes that represent the short story in the passage. 3. Tragic resolution. The story sounds ironic, but the phrases of Fortunato are not sarcastic. He is serious when he says he will not be dying just because of a cough. The tragic solution is how he actually confronts to make the passage ironic and much more horrible to death.

All the choices are correct but the above-mentioned are the best that identifies the given passage from "The Cask of Amontillado".
