B. The narrator is startled when he hears a tapping at his door and sees the purple curtains in his room shake.

Explanation:

In the poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe, the speaker is suffering for the loss of his beloved Lenore. One night, when he is almost asleep, he hears some tapping at his door. He immediately tells himself it is only a visitor, nothing more. As he looks around, he sees the purple curtains of his room moving. He is suddenly afraid, "filled with terrors", and again tries to convince himself it is only a late-night visitor. As we can see, that is the moment when the theme of fear emerges in the poem. Readers are now aware of what the speaker is feeling and how scary and mysterious his surroundings are.

And the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain

Thrilled me—filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;

   So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating

   “’Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door—

Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door;—

           This it is and nothing more.”

where is the writing? (so i can answer)

hmm, sadly there is no dialogue. there is no place in the story where he is talking to anyone. it's more of just describing what he eats and where he sleeps. you have to become anne frank, give details of where you are, what other folks look like, how the environment is. have a little bit of dialogue tell of what people are specifically saying. anne frank talked about her entire household including the people, the objects, the lighting, the food they ate, and even the smell in the air. there has to be more to your diary entries, the whole story in its current state is only about peter van daan, the food, the sounds, and where he sleeps. also he seems to be writing only once a year yet more than that happened from day to day. for a friend, i can you write it out, if you want.
