Read the following editorial letter. Dear Citizens of Triston, As a concerned citizen of Triston and a member of the North Carolina Conservation of Nature Council, I am asking for the community's help with a serious issue. First, I want to congratulate our town's mayor and city council for planning to build a new community theater. However, do they realize that building the theater on Asbury Woodlands will destroy the prime breeding ground for an endangered species? The Bachman's warbler is a small, green-and-yellow bird about four inches in length. Since 1897, the population of the Bachman's warbler in North Carolina has decreased from more than 500,000 to fewer than 100. The main reason is the destruction of the areas (like Asbury Woodlands) that the bird uses for its natural breeding grounds. Bachman's warblers prefer thickly wooded swamps and wet thickets in full-grown forests. It’s there that they build their nests and feed on insects. This fact does not mean that we cannot build a community theater. We simply must consider building it in a slightly different location. After all, our community has forever prided itself on caring for our natural surroundings. The city council's honorable concern for the endangered Bachman's warbler would smooth the ruffled feathers of many voters. With the council’s help and the support of our townspeople, future generations will appreciate the beauty of this little bird. Sincerely, Redmond Harris Which statement best captures the main argument of the letter? A. Protecting the woodlands is advisable because it will make voters who care about the environment happy. B. The city council should not be allowed to pursue city projects that will decrease the population of endangered birds. C. The need to conserve Asbury Woodlands to protect the endangered Bachman's warbler far outweighs that of providing a community theater. D. Conserving Asbury Woodlands is important because the endangered Bachman's warbler prefers thickly wooded swamps to build their nests and feed on

Read this passage from “the fall of the house of usher.” which element of gothic literature is not obvious in this passage? as if in the superhuman energy of his utterance there had been found the potency of a spell, the huge antique panels to which the speaker pointed threw slowly back, upon the instant, their ponderous and ebony jaws. it was the work of the rushing gust—but then without those doors there did stand the lofty and enshrouded figure of the lady madeline of usher. there was blood upon her white robes, and the evidence of some bitter struggle upon every portion of her emaciated frame. for a moment she remained trembling and reeling to and fro upon the threshold—then, with a low moaning cry, fell heavily inward upon the person of her brother, and in her violent and now final death agonies, bore him to the floor a corpse, and a victim to the terrors he had anticipated. bleak or remote settings supernatural or otherworldly elements macabre or violent incidents strong language full of dangerous meaning
