Explanation:

Malturian is the tale of a magician who apparently survived an impossible act of magic, after being tied with chains, locked into a trunk and then being thrown into the river, only to reappear 15 days later as if nothing had happened. This awakens the curiosity of Jorge Reinz, an intrepid journalist who becomes obsessed with finding an explanation to Malturians death defying feats, and with the help of his chief editor Artemio Prater, who himself used to be an adventurous journalist, but now preferred to stay at the newspaper, he's able to travel to europe to investigate the case, arriving to a shocking explanation. Jorge´s theory is that Malturian is not a single person, but a name adopted by a society of suicidal magicians, who sacrifice themselves in order to perpetuate the name Malturian and increase the name´s fame by performing "impossible" acts of magic and resurrecting afterwards. At the end of the tale, we see how Jorge Reinz himself becomes Malturian, by performing an impossible to survive feat, throwing himself from niagara falls inside of a keg.

The statements we have to choose from in English are:

1. We could say that "Malturian" is a dark and sinister/ happy and fun tale

2. The personality of Jorge Reinz could be described as obsessive and passionate/calm and fun.

3. We could say that Prater and Reinz have a father-son/love-hate relationship. (We can conclude that Prater served as a mentor and father figure for Jorge Reinz)

4. Reinz thinks that the only explanation to Malturian´s resurrections is the existence of a secret society of suicidal magicians/ a dark pact with the devil

5. We can conclude that, at the end of the story, Jorge Reinz takes a decision characteristic of a mad man/ returns to the newspaper as a hero
