In the story "tell-tale heart," the narrator claims he is not mad because a.) he didn't really kill anybody. b.) he can calmly tell the story. c.) he loved the old man. d.) none of the above

I'm pretty sure it's C, he loved the old man, because it was true, he did love the old man, he just hated his eye. He wanted to destroy the evil in the old man's eye but not the man.

The correct answer is C. He can calmy tell the story. In the story "Tell-Tale Heart," the narrator claims he is not mad because his actions are extremely well thought out to have been done by a mad man.

He accepts that” I loved the old man. He had never wronged me”.Yet, He never denies killing the old man, moreover he takes time to explain his reasons for the horrible deed.

answer: i would say he was very determined and persistent in overcoming obstacles.

explanation:   "the magician of menlo park" as he was called, liked to tell an incident that happened when he was 8 years old and came back home crying after attending school for three months because his teacher called him "sterile and unproductive". from nowadays perspective, we can say that thomas alva edison was one of the most persistent and determined man that has ever existed. when edison was 14, he contracted scarlet fever. the effect of the fever, as well as a blow to the head by an angry train conductor, caused edison to become completely deaf in his left ear, and 80-percent deaf in the other. so as you can see he had to struggle to not so many minor issues but he always succeeded.
