Which response best explains the narrator's attitude toward the events in the following passage (paragraphs 12-13)? When I first beheld this apparition--for I could scarcely regard it as less--my wonder and my terror were extreme. But at length reflection came to
my aid. The cat, I remembered, had been hung in a garden adjacent to the house. Upon the alarm of fire, this garden had been immediately filled
by the crowd-by some one of whom the animal must have been cut from the tree and thrown, through an open window, into my chamber. This
had probably been done with the view of arousing me from sleep. The falling of other walls had compressed the victim of my cruelty into the
substance of the freshly-spread plaster, the lime of which, with the flames, and the ammonia from the carcass, had then accomplished the
portraiture as I saw it.
Although I thus readily accounted to my reason, if not altogether to my conscience, for the startling fact just detailed, it did not the less fail to
make a deep impression upon my fancy. For months I could not rid myself of the phantasm of the cat; and, during this period, there came back
into my spirit a half-sentiment that seemed, but was not, remorse. I went so far as to regret the loss of the animal, and to look about me, among
the vile haunts which I now habitually frequented, for another pet of the same species, and of somewhat similar appearance, with which to supply
its place.
O A The narrator did not feel guilty for killing the cat until the crowd saw the evidence of his violence,
B. The narrator was not affected by the events because he did not believe he did anything wrong.
O C. The narrator believes there is a rational explanation for the image of the cat, but he is still haunted by his imagination
O D. The narrator does not remember much about the events because of his alcoholism.
