In this conversation which discussion technique does Jennifer most clearly show
lora16 [44]

The discussion technique that Jennifer uses most clearly in this conversation is, challenging assumptions.

When we want to give a discussion a different approach, we use this technique through What if... questions, it is necessary to present another alternative to respond to things that we already established.

The other techniques are very different from this one, promoting participation would be mostly used by a moderator not a regular participant in the conversation, MAking an objective is to land the discussion into something real, and Asking for rhetorical questions does expect any kind of answer which we do have in here, therefore the other three options are incorrect.

5. Explain how the political events of the 1940s influenced Orwell's writing at that<br><br> time.
defon

Answer:

Orwell considered himself a democratic socialist, although he had a period in which he supported anarchist causes in Spain.

Explanation:

This speaks a lot about Orwell. It says that Orwell despised authoritarianism, and totalitarianism, and preferred governments where the power was descentralized.

During the 1940s, three totalitarian regimes were in full force: Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Soviet Russia. Orwell looked at these regimes with horror, because of the ways these regimes controlled every single aspects of people's lives.

He used these events as direct inspiration for his writing, specially for writing his most famous work: 1984, the story of a totalitarian society that shares many similarities with the regimes previously mentioned.
