Based on this excerpt from Edgar Allan Poe’s “Fall of the House of Usher,” what is the best location for the House of Usher?

on a deserted or isolated place

Explanation:

The expert paints the picture of some empty, wistful place in the deserted countryside.

It mentioned it was a “dull, dark and soundless” day, which tells us there were no people around as there is no sound made by them. This gives us the clue it is an isolated place, far from any crowded settlement.

The line that mentioned author passed through the “singularly dreary tract of country” tells us it is in the empty, depressing countryside that has a gloomy aura. There is no mention of people or anyone around, no mention of other buildings. The passage suggests, therefore, the place is detached from the cluster, unusual and lifeless.

"the monkey's paw" is a rare story in that the theme is actually stated in the story. sgt. maj. morris tells the whites that the old fakir who put the spell on the paw said, "fate rules people's lives and those who interfere with fate do so to their sorrow." the message is a warning, but mr. white doesn't believe it. even though sgt. maj. morris makes it clear that he tried wishing with unfortunate results and he tries to throw the paw on the fire,   mr. white makes a wish for 200 pounds only to find that he receives the money when herbert dies in a factory accident. according to the fakir, then, because mr. white had wished for something he should not have had, his son lost his life.

the second wish that mrs. white encourages him to make is for herbert's return--one week after his death. when the strange knocking begins at the door during the windy night, mr. white panicks, believing that the previously dead but still mangled herbert could have walked home from the cemetary and is now at the door. because he fears what his wife will find if she opens the door, mr. white makes his third wish--for the noise to stop.

therefore, he uses his three wishes and to his sorrow, loses his son and disappoints his wife, who fervently believed that their son was at the door. she wanted him back, regardless of his condition.
