Read the excerpt from "The Tell-Tale Heart." What feature of gothic literature does the excerpt
include?
O an upbeat ending
O terror and fear
O an unsolved mystery
O life and death
Presently I heard a slight groan, and I knew it was the
groan of mortal terror. It was not a groan of pain or of
grief-oh, no! it was the low stifled sound that arises
from the bottom of the soul when overcharged with
awe. I knew the sound well. Many a night, just at
midnight, when all the world slept, it has welled up
from my own bosom, deepening, with its dreadful
echo, the terrors that distracted me. I say I knew it
well. I knew what the old man felt, and pitied him,
although I chuckled at heart. I knew that he had been
lying awake ever since the first slight noise, when he
had turned in the bed. His fears had been ever since
growing upon him. He had been trying to fancy them
causeless, but could not.

B Terror and Fear

as the paragraph mentions

*ahem* "groan of mortal terror. It was not a groan of pain or of"

and "echo, the terrors that distracted me. I say I knew it"

shall hint to the reader the idea of this passage

this will remove A Upbeat ending as a correct option

reading the full passage at the half/end, It doesn't seem as a life or death so we can also remove D life or death as an option it may see, that way but it doesn't really give us a sight of death or live blossoming

and C a unsolved mystery

doesn't appear to be one, it may give us that thought at the beginning

but it mentions "I knew what the old man felt, and pitied him,"

which should say we know it's no mstyery

many scientists' predictions of climate change include: warmer temperatures, rising sea levels, and more frequent storms.

that is the wrong

there is no picture just let me know what it is and i can you tho : ) mark me the brainliest ? have a good day
