"Tell-Tale Heart."
The narrator lives with the Old Man in the same house, it seems he knew him very well and
even at one point was very fond of him. It can be deduced that he was a relative or most
likely a caregiver.
The old man's heart was a resonance that became faster and louder. It resembled the sound
of a drum that for the narrator was something infernal that filled him with an uncontrollable
terror as it seemed to explode and his fear was that some neighbor would hear it.
v) In the end, why does the narrator feel compelled to confess to the killing?
While the policemen were in the deceased's room, he began to hear a sound, as the sound
grew continually louder and louder, and in the meantime the men continued to talk.
However, this sound became unbearable and he evidenced that the policemen already knew
about the crime and were mocking him. According to him he could not stand it any longer
as he was listening to his heart beating and asked the policemen to lift the boards where the
body was.

HOMEWORK PART 2
I believe that if society could understand the cause and effect, we would still be an
imperfect society, but we would have a society with fewer problems, since if
everyone knew the result that an action entails, we would not feel the emotion of
waiting for the result that is going have at some point, although it would be a perfect
scenario to think that we could predict the consequences of all our actions
