1. Poe describes alarm bells as____
A.Clanging
B.Runic
C.Shrieking
D.Impelling
^
Now I was a little confused with this one as it says both A and C in the text;
"...They can only shriek, shriek..." and "...the clanging..." but I reasoned that it must be A because it includes the suffix 'ing' in the text while C does not.

2.
The poem "Annabel Lee" mourns the speakers____
A.Mother
B.Sister
C.Childhood love
D.Nurse
^ "...
I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea;
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee..."

The bird in "The Raven" repeats the phrase_____
A.Evermore
B.Eleanor
C.Elsinore

B.ghastly
