Question

Match each line from the story with the idea it best supports


<em>... I talked more freely to get rid of the feeling: but it continued and gained definitiveness-until at length, I found that the noise was</em> not <em>within my ears.</em>



A The narrator cannot escape his guilty conscience.

B The murder does not have a traditional motive.

Answer 1

The line supports:

**A The narrator cannot escape his guilty conscience.**

The description of the noise that continues and gains definitiveness suggests a relentless reminder of guilt, which aligns with the concept of a guilty conscience.
