Answer:
The Inquisition is the historical context that frames Poe’s short story.
Explanation:
The unnamed narrator has been sentenced to death and relates his violent experience, which despite being a fictional account of an unlikely event, it´s an accurate depiction of how violent the Inquisition was. In this sense, Inquisition is a great subject or setting for the genre of horror, given its explicitly violent events, which Poe enhances to conceive a suspenseful story, with only an implicit political agenda to condemn the Inquisition.

Friar Laurence: On Thursday, sir? the time is very short. Paris: My father Capulet will have it so; And I am nothing slow to slack his haste. Friar Laurence: You say you do not know the lady's mind: Uneven is the course, I like it not. Paris: Immoderately she weeps for Tybalt's death, And therefore have I little talk'd of love; For Venus smiles not in a house of tears. Now, sir, her father counts it dangerous That she doth give her sorrows so much sway, And in his wisdom hastes our marriage To stop the inundation of her tears; Which, too much minded by herself alone, May be put from her by society. Now do you know the reason of this haste. –Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare How does Paris act as an antagonist? He upsets Capulet by wanting to marry Juliet.

1. This statement support the theme especially looking at the ending part which says, "they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race". We note that the perceived oppression they experienced prompted them to act, but despite acting they were still struggling with the alternative course of action.
2. The statement "they were far better off" indicates that they experienced oppression "in the days of Jones".
Thus, after their ordeal they were determined more than ever to avoid the alternative of not preventing the return of the human beings.

This question is incomplete because part of the text is missing, here is the complete excerpt for the question:
Read this excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.
"That would never do, I'm sure," said Alice: "the governess would never think of excusing me lessons for that. If she couldn't remember my name, she'd call me 'Miss!' as the servants do."
"Well, if she said 'Miss,' and didn't say anything more," the Gnat remarked, "of course you'd miss your lessons. That's a joke. I wish YOU had made it."
"Why do you wish I had made it?" Alice asked. "It's a very bad one."
But the Gnat only sighed deeply, while two large tears came rolling down its cheeks.
"You shouldn't make jokes," Alice said, "if it makes you so unhappy."
Then came another of those melancholy little sighs, and this time the poor Gnat really seemed to have sighed itself away, for, when Alice looked up, there was nothing whatever to be seen on the twig, and, as she was getting quite chilly with sitting still so long, she got up and walked on.
The answer to this question is C. The gnat makes jokes, but they seem to cause him unhappiness rather than joy.
Explanation:
Opposites are contradictory elements, characters, actions, or events. In the excerpt from Through the Looking Glass, the author Lewis Carroll used opposite actions in the Gnat character. Indeed, in this dialogue between the Gnat and Alice, the gnat decides to make a joke or funny remark in "Well, if she said 'Miss,' and didn't say anything more...of course you'd miss your lessons"; however, right after this remark, the Gnat is sad and melancholic "the Gnat only sighed deeply, while two large tears came rolling down its cheeks", which shows contradictory or opposite actions.

His intention at the moment is to give an order when making a request to the west wind, in relation to the places where that wind must pass. Although, imperative phrases are ended with an exclamation (!), The choice of words that the poet used in the first line, allows us to understand the feeling that an order or order is being carried out, even without the exclamation ending the line.

"It is very simple to be happy, but it is very difficult to be simple". Write a speech on the quote said by rabindranath tagore.
Happiness is one of the most important feelings for humanity. For this reason, we are always trying to be happy and looking for ways to achieve this feeling by allowing it to be present in our lives constantly.
This search for happiness is often the main reason why we cannot feel it. The search often leaves us unhappy, dissatisfied, sad. This is because we cannot understand happiness properly, let alone know where to find it. This makes it seem that being happy is complicated, however that is an incorrect thought, because happiness is simple.
Simplicity, on the other hand, is very difficult. We are constantly moving away from what is simple, because a life in real simplicity is difficult to please and we are too selfish to open the mother of our technology, our money, our expensive clothes, our consumerism and so many other perks that it can allow us passenger comfort, but it prevents us from living simply and consequently happy.
We grew up in an environment that influences us to always seek more. A better house, a better job, more shoes, more friends, more loves, because our society believes that this will make us happy, but happiness depends solely on ourselves in a simple, clear and objective way. We do not want to abandon these things, but happiness is not in them and that is why we are so dissatisfied.
We must then practice detachment from everything that is in excess in our lives, we will find happiness when we learn the difficult lesson of being simple and this will only be possible after we perform an even more difficult task, to know ourselves deeply , that way we will realize how little we need to be happy.

The man at the gas station gave me directions and then kept on chatting, telling me about the weather to come and places to stay nearby.

It's the style of talking, people who answer in the few brief words. So, in this passage it shows that wife doesn't talk generally, but briefly, since it also says "occasionally correcting him on his lefts and rights", so she didn't really give the directions she just corrected his husband.
