Answer:

1. The title tells the reader that the story will most likely involve both a tortoise and a hare in its plot.

2. The story takes place in a forest.

3. After the Tortoise asks Hare for a race, Hare is amused by his suggestion and laughs to show his confidence.

4. Hare's laughter, nonchalant attitude toward the race, and mockery of Tortoise are all evidence of his over-confidence.

5. In his next race, Hare will probably refrain from under-estimating his opponent and keep his focus on the task at hand, rather than taking breaks to nap.

6. The moral of the story can be summarized in the sentence spoken by Tortoise: "You may be faster, but I won the race."

7. This story would be considered a fable because it is fiction, short in length, and a lesson is taught.

8. The moral of the story is "slow and steady wins the race." No matter your physical ability, you can achieve your goals through hard work and determination.

What is the mood on Animal Farm after the public confessions and slaughter?


I KNOW THAT NO ONE WILL SEE THIS BUT PLEASE ANSWER

Answers

Answer:

The tone of Animal Farm is initially playful and lighthearted, but it becomes bitter as the story unfolds. The story begins with a tone suggesting the reader is embarking on a superficially silly story about ridiculous humans and talking animals.

Explanation:

Answer:

In the bitter cold of winter, the animals struggle to rebuild the windmill. In January, they fall short of food, a fact that they work to conceal from the human farmers around them, lest Animal Farm be perceived to be failing. The humans refuse to believe that Snowball caused the destruction of the windmill, saying that the windmill’s walls simply weren’t thick enough. The animals deem this explanation false, but they nevertheless decide to build the walls twice as thick this time. Squealer gives ennobling speeches on the glory of sacrifice, but the other animals acquire their real inspiration from the example of Boxer, who works harder than ever. In order to feed the animals, Napoleon contracts to sell four hundred eggs a week. The other animals react with shock—one of Old Major’s original complaints about humans focused on the cruelty of egg selling, or so they remember. The hens rebel, and Napoleon responds by cutting their rations entirely. Nine hens die before the others give in to Napoleon’s demands.

Soon afterward, the animals hear, to their extreme dismay, that Snowball has been visiting the farm at night, in secret, and sabotaging the animals’ efforts. Napoleon says that he can detect Snowball’s presence everywhere, and whenever something appears to go wrong by chance, Snowball receives the blame. One day, Squealer announces that Snowball has sold himself to Mr. Frederick’s farm, Pinchfield, and that the treacherous pig has been in league with Mr. Jones from the start. He recalls Snowball’s attempts at the Battle of the Cowshed to have the animals defeated. The animals hear these words in stupefied astonishment. They remember Snowball’s heroism and recall that he received a medal. Boxer, in particular, is completely baffled. But Napoleon and Squealer convince the others that Snowball’s apparent bravery simply constituted part of his treacherous plot. They also work to convince the animals of Napoleon’s superior bravery during that battle. So vividly does Squealer describe Napoleon’s alleged heroic actions that the animals are almost able to remember them.

Four days later, Napoleon convenes all of the animals in the yard. With his nine huge dogs ringed about him and growling, he stages an inquisition and a purge: he forces certain animals to confess to their participation in a conspiracy with Snowball and then has the dogs tear out these supposed traitors’ throats. The dogs, apparently without orders, even attack Boxer, who effortlessly knocks them away with his huge hooves. But four pigs and numerous other animals meet their deaths, including the hens who rebelled at the proposal to sell their eggs. The terrible bloodshed leaves the animals deeply shaken and confused. After Napoleon leaves, Boxer says that he would never have believed that such a thing could happen on Animal Farm. He adds that the tragedy must owe to some fault in the animals themselves; thus, he commits to working even harder. Clover looks out over the farm, wondering how such a glorious rebellion as theirs could have come to its current state. Some of the animals begin to sing “Beasts of England,” but Squealer appears and explains that “Beasts of England” may no longer be sung. It applied only to the Rebellion, he says, and now there is no more need for rebellion. Squealer gives the animals a replacement song, written by Minimus, the poet pig. The new song expresses profound patriotism and glorifies Animal Farm, but it does not inspire the animals as “Beasts of England” once did.

Analysis

The humans react with relief when the windmill topples because its failure seems to justify their contempt for the animals and their belief in their own superiority. Similarly, Soviet Russia struggled against a largely justified reputation for industrial incompetence, famine, and poor management. Stalin’s vaunted Five-Year Plans for agriculture resulted in the starvation of millions of people, and industrial production lagged far behind the capitalist West. But the Soviets were determined to mask their problems and keep them from the eyes of the rest of the world. Correspondingly, the pigs of Animal Farm devise elaborate schemes to keep the human farmers from learning about their difficulties. The windmill becomes an important measure of the farm’s competence, and its collapse deals a major blow to the pigs’ prestige as equals in the community of farms—just as Soviet Russia’s industrial setbacks threatened its position as an equal to the leading nations of the world and as a viable model

Hunger and Malnutrition in Africa

Explanation:

A problem I think that needs to be solved is hunger and malnutrition of anyone. I would solve this problem by bringing it up to people who are high in government.

The problem is not only in our country but in other countries like Africa. Young children and adults are starving. We know this is a problem and people have tried to solve it but there's no final solution. These people are humans too, so as you are sitting at home enjoying a full course meal, children in Africa are only eating one meal a day. That extra candy bar you had today, could have given a child in another country a whole day of food or even maybe a week of food.

How can we solve this problem finally though? We all can help! We can bring up this issue to our government. If you were in Africa with only one meal a day, you would want people trying to help you! Why can't our government try to help more in situations like these? The first step to solving this is research, and getting the attention of people who are higher in government.  Africa has been starving since 1980! And even before that specific year. Why should we wait another 5 years or 20 years to change, and help other humans out? We should all change now!

Answers

Answer:

The text reveals the thought process of the person choosing.

Explanation:

this is what I think if I get it wrong at least I tried

The choice is presented differently in the text "revealing the thought process of the person choosing." Therefore, option (b) or (ii) is the correct answer.

What were the three criteria for selecting the casket?

Three caskets—one made of gold, one of silver, and one of lead—are displayed to potential partners as part of the test. The suitor wins Portia's hand if he selects the right casket.

The gold coffin represents avarice, as well as superficial, materialistic people who place more emphasis on appearance than on content.

The person who chooses the coffin containing Portia's image will be able to wed her.

If the wrong casket is selected, he must remain single, keep his choice a secret, and depart right away. The Prince of Morocco is the first potential suitor.

Therefore, option (b) is the correct answer.

The author's manipulation of time impacted the story A. By flashing back to the first moment Della saw the gold watch chain, he creates tension as to how Jim will react to Della's decision to cut her hair.

From the story, it should be noted that the parallel plot structure wasn't used to show the simultaneous actions of Della and Jim.

In this case, the manipulation of time impacted the story by flashing back to the first moment Della saw the gold watch chain, he creates tension as to how Jim will react to Della's decision to cut her hair. This was important in making the readers understand the story.
