This question is missing the passage. I've found it online. It is the following:
In Edgar Allan Poe’s Gothic story “The Cask of Amontillado,” Montresor avenges himself on Fortunato. He lures Fortunato into a vault underneath his home, promising him a sample of wine said to be Amontillado. There, he chains Fortunato to a wall and begins walling him in with bricks. Read the excerpt from Poe’s story, Then, answer the question(s).
(1) It was now midnight, and my task was drawing to a close. I had completed the eighth, the ninth and the tenth tier. I had finished a portion of the last and the eleventh; there remained but a single stone to be fitted and plastered in. I struggled with its weight; I placed it partially in its destined position. But now there came from out the niche a low laugh that erected the hairs upon my head. It was succeeded by a sad voice, which I had difficulty in recognizing as that of the noble Fortunato. The voice said—
(2) “Ha! ha! ha! —he! he! he! —a very good joke, indeed —an excellent jest. We will have many a rich laugh about it at the palazzo —he! he! he! —over our wine —he! he! he!”
(3) “The Amontillado!” I said.
(4) “He! he! he! He! he! he!—yes, the Amontillado. But is it not getting late? Will not they be awaiting us at the palazzo, the Lady Fortunato and the rest? Let us be gone.”
(5) “Yes,” I said, “let us be gone.”
(6) “For the love of God, Montresor!”
(7) “Yes,” I said, “for the love of God!”
Answer:
The dialogue in paragraph 2 suggests that:
a. He has become hysterical and has gone into denial.
Explanation:
The paragraphs have been numbered in the passage. Let's single out paragraph 2 and analyze it:
(2) “Ha! ha! ha! —he! he! he! —a very good joke, indeed —an excellent jest. We will have many a rich laugh about it at the palazzo —he! he! he! —over our wine —he! he! he!”
This is not a moment for Fortunato to be laughing. He is about to die chained to wall, with no chances of escaping. We can assume this a hysterical laughter caused by his strong emotions and mixed feelings of rage and fear. Notice that he also acts as if Montresor will unchain him, as if it is all a joke. He is in denial of the horrendous situation he is in, unwilling to accept his fate. Therefore, the best option is a. He has become hysterical and has gone into denial.

What is emphasized in the poem that is absent from the painting? Part B: How does this affect the meaning?
Hi. You forgot to say that this question is about "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus".
Answer:
What is infatized in the poem that is absent in the painting is the moment when Icarus' wings melt. This affects the meaning because it removes the feeling of despair in the painting, which only exposes the feeling of calm.
Explanation:
In the poem, we can see the lines "sweating in the sun / that melted / the wings’ wax "that depicts the moment when Icarus' wings melt. This is a moment of despair and agony, because the reader knows that after that, the character Icarus will die. This moment is not portrayed in the painting, as the figure focuses on showing the calm that the world finds even with the death of Icarus, since no one notices his fall and continues their lives as if nothing had happened. Despite this, the two media set out to the same objective, which is to expose the story of Icarus and demonstrate a sad and tragic ending.
why are words in poetry, music, and stories important to life?
Answer:
Words in poetry, music, and stories are important to life because in these works of literature and art are written and sung records of human emotion and feelings. Through these work of literature people find this way to express themselves and state their thoughts. Poetry is important to life because through poetry writers express themselves, beliefs, religion, thoughts, dreams, goals, life, and so much more. Music is important to life because it does much the same but also brings communities and families together. For those who don't speak the same religion music can express their emotion and their state of sorrow, joy, confusion, and more. Stories are important to life because it does much of the same as a poem. Stories allow you to open your imagination and enter your mind to a new world that was created by someone else. Stories have been around, also, for many years and are one of many reasons why we can find images on cave walls.

can you give me a poet about cellphone with the ABBA rhyme scheme?
Answer:
There is something about my cellphone A
I can’t wait to have it in my hand B
Teachers, parents do not understand B
If I have it, I’m never alone A
There is something about my cellphone A
I find it to be just grand B
It obeys my every command B
Shows me the world, everything to be known A
Explanation:
A rhyme scheme is determined by the final sound of the last word in each line of a poem. The very first final sound to appear is always attributed the letter A. Every time that same sound appears again throughout the poem, it should be labeled A. In the poem above, the final sound of cellphone is repeated in the words alone and known.
The second final sound to appear must be attributed the letter B. In this case, it is the final sound of the word hand, which is repeated in understand, grand, and command. The rhyme scheme is, thus, ABBA in both stanzas.
Since you did not specify how many stanzas the poem should have, I wrote only those two. Feel free to add more lines using the same final sounds as before.

Which line are the best example of parallelism
Answer:
With too much knowledge for the sceptic side,
With too much weakness for the stoic’s pride
Explanation:
The options you were given are the following:
Placed on this isthmus of a middle state, A being darkly wise, and rudely great: With too much knowledge for the sceptic side, With too much weakness for the stoic’s prideAs Eastern priests in giddy circles run, And turn their heads to imitate the sun.
Admired such wisdom in an earthly shape And showed a Newton as we show an ape.
The best example of parallelism is the second one.
Parallelism (also referred to as parallel structure or parallel construction) is the use of the same grammatical structure in multiple phrases or clauses within a sentence. Its purpose is to add balance, clarity, pattern, or rhythm.
In the second example, we have two phrases that begin the same way: with too much... We can see that they are identical when it comes to their structure. Only different words are used.
