Skateboarding is not a crime!

some adults really look down on kids who go skateboarding. they tend to think of these kids as gutter punks, or thugs, or some such thing. well, i have known many skateborders, and nothing can be further from the truth. skateboarders are typically very intelligent. they are also highly courteous. the skateboarders i know would never hurt anyone! in fact, we (yes, i said "we"; i'm a skateboarder myself) tend to have a more highly developed sense of morality than most kids our age. the negative scapegoating of skateboaders needs to stop.

how do these two essays differ in their focus?
a) they both defend people who go skateboarding, but the first essay is written in first person while the second essay is written in third person.
b) they both defend people who go skateboarding, but the first essay is written in third person while the second essay is written in first person.
c) they both defend people who go skateboarding, but the first essay focuses on how skateboarders undeservedly have a bad reputation, while the second essay focuses on how skateboarders shouldn't be prevented from skateboarding.
d) they both defend people who go skateboarding, but the first essay focuses on how skateboarders shouldn't be prevented from skateboarding, while the second essay focuses on how skateboarders undeservedly have a bad reputation.

Read this passage from “the fall of the house of usher.” which element of gothic literature is not obvious in this passage? as if in the superhuman energy of his utterance there had been found the potency of a spell, the huge antique panels to which the speaker pointed threw slowly back, upon the instant, their ponderous and ebony jaws. it was the work of the rushing gust—but then without those doors there did stand the lofty and enshrouded figure of the lady madeline of usher. there was blood upon her white robes, and the evidence of some bitter struggle upon every portion of her emaciated frame. for a moment she remained trembling and reeling to and fro upon the threshold—then, with a low moaning cry, fell heavily inward upon the person of her brother, and in her violent and now final death agonies, bore him to the floor a corpse, and a victim to the terrors he had anticipated. bleak or remote settings supernatural or otherworldly elements macabre or violent incidents strong language full of dangerous meaning
