these details?

Answer 1

Answer:

Montresor is trying to tell the readers that Fortunato is weak and has too much pride to ask questions. He is trying to make a fool out of him.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The sentence shows that Fortunato was so foolish to outsmart Luchresi that he didn't suspect why Montressor was taking him to the catacombs.

Although you have not shown the text this question refers to, we can see from the context of the question that you are referring to "The Cask of Amontillado," written by Edgar Alan Poe.

As we read this short story, we can get the following information:

• Montressor holds a strong grudge about something Fortunato did to him.
• Because of this grudge, he decides to get revenge on Fortunato, trapping him inside the wall of a catacomb and leaving him there to die.
• He makes a plan to take Fortunato to the catacombs, and that plan consists of calling him to assess the quality of the amontillado.
• Fortunado doesn't know how to assess the amontillado, but he thinks about doing it to make Luchresi, his rival, envious.
• Fortunato wants so much to make Luchresi jealous that he doesn't suspect why he's being taken to the catacombs. This makes Montressor think Fortunato is a fool.

With that, we can see that Poe created characters with feelings so intense that it makes them not notice obvious things. These negative feelings make Montressor not see a peaceful way to solve his problems with Fortunato and does not allow Fortunato to realize that he is in a dangerous environment.
