condition? Because nearly the whole of the produce of our

Who is Nicholas II?

Nicholas II, known in the Russian Orthodox Church as Saint Nicholas the Passion-Bearer, was the last Emperor of Russia, King of Congress Poland and Grand Duke of Finland, ruling from 1 November 1894 until his abdication on 15 March 1917.

During his reign, Nicholas ll gave support to the economic and political reforms promoted by his prime ministers, Sergei Witte and Pyotr Stolypin. He advocated modernization based on foreign loans and close ties with France but resisted giving the new parliament major roles. Ultimately, progress was undermined by Nicholas's commitment to autocratic rule, strong aristocratic opposition and defeats sustained by the Russian military in the Russo-Japanese War and World War I.

By March 1917, public support for Nicholas had collapsed and he was forced to abdicate the throne, thereby ending the Romanov dynasty's 304-year rule of Russia.

What is most likely Orwell's purpose for writing this
passage?
to demonstrate that Snowball is more creative than
Napoleon
to illustrate the power struggle that Napoleon will likely win
to reveal Napoleon's real feelings about plans for the
windmill
to slaby the interest of the rest of the farm in Snowball's
windmill

Answers

The most likely purpose George Orwell had for writing the passage of "Animal Farm" is the following:

B. To illustrate the power struggle that Napoleon will likely win.

In "Animal Farm," both Napoleon and Snowball are pigs who are put in charge of the farm due to their being the most intelligent animals.The other animals trust them to manage things and make Animal Farm a place where all animals are treated equally and fairly.Snowball is studying and making plans for the construction of a windmill, which will make the animals' lives easier.However, Napoleon has been against the windmill since the beginning.The passage we are analyzing here shows that Napoleon not only despises Snowball's plans, but that will likely do something about them.The fact that he urinates on the plans serves as foreshadowing - it shows what will happen in the future.In fact, Napoleon will kick Snowball out and take over the plans to build the mill.

Analyze the various characters in the story. List which character types—dynamic, round, static, and flat—you observed in the story. Cite evidence to support your response. From the story "The Gift of the Magi"

Answers

Answer:

There were three main characters in this story.

Della Dillingham Young (dynamic)

James Dillingham Young (dynamic/ static)

Madame Sofronie (flat)

Explanation:

Della was a dynamic character throughout the story because she was always up for the help, support, care and sacrifice. She can handle and change according to the situation. She sold her hairs to buy gift to her husband.

James was a static character in start because change was not his thing but when he had no money for gift, he decided to sell his precious thing just make his wife happy by giving her gift so it was also his dynamic side. So, James was both dynamic and static.

Madame Sofronie was a flat business woman who had no concern what Della is going through or what hairs meant to her. She didn't even look properly and told Della the price.  So, madame Sofronie was a flat, emotionless, harsh business woman.

The two major characters are Della and Jim. There is one minor character, which is Mrs. Sofronie. Let's analyze them:

1. Della is a dynamic character because she experiences change and growth throughout the story. She sacrifices what she loves the most about herself - her hair - to buy a Christmas gift for her beloved husband (external conflict). She suffers to make such a decision (internal conflict), but goes through with it.

On the other hand, she is also a flat character when it comes to her personality. All we know about her is that she loves Jim dearly. Nothing else is developed, we do not see any other sides or facets of her personality.

2. Jim is a bit more complicated and open to interpretation because he only appears at the end of the story. However, we can tell that, just like his wife, he probably went through the same struggle. He too sacrificed his valuable watch to buy her a gift. We can assume that he, too, is a dynamic character.

Again, just like Della, we can say Jim is a flat character. His personality is not developed, especially because he barely appears in the story.

3. Mrs. Sofronie is a flat and static stock character. That means she is not developed at all. She only appears to help the plot move forward by buying Della's hair.

This question refers to the short story "The Gift of the Magi," by American author O. Henry (1862-1910).The main characters are husband and wife, Jim and Della.They both sacrifice their most valuable possessions to buy each other Christmas gifts.Jim sells his watch to buy Della beautiful combs for her hair.Della sells her hair to buy Jim a beautiful watch chain.In the end, their gifts are useless. Della can't wear the combs, and Jim can't wear the chain.However, they prove their deep love for each other through this sacrifice.

Which sentence in this excerpt from eleanor Roosevelt's speech "what libraries mean to the nation" is an example of the rhetorical strategy of pathos

Answers

Answer:

"The children in the district are so poor and some of them so pathetic that ...........the children, and, even more, to help the whole community to learn to live through their minds."

Explanation:

Pathos(appeal to emotion) is characterized as one of the three persuasive or rhetorical devices(as stated by Aristotle) that aims to persuade the audience by appealing to their emotions.

In the given excerpt from Roosevelt's speech titled 'what libraries mean to the nation', the sentence 'the children...minds' exemplifies the use of pathos as it employs descriptive words and phrases to display the condition of poor children like 'so poor, so pathetic, struggle to live, feeling right there, etc.' that elicits the emotions of pity, grief, and sympathy in the audience. The audience is able to emotionally connect themselves to the condition of poor children and accept the speaker's claim that education is the only source to make their lives better.

Answer:

The children in the district are so poor and some of them so pathetic that I suppose the struggle to live has been so great you could not think much about what you fed the mind, but I came away feeling that right there, in one of the biggest and richest states in the country, we had a big area that needed books and needed libraries to help these schools in the education of the children, and, even more, to help the whole community to learn to live through their minds.
