Answer:

A. realistic. The tone reveals that, universally, humankind is perseverant and will do what it takes to survive.

Explanation:

The tone that correctly identifies and reveals the universal theme is option A as it is realistic and reveals that humans will persevere even in the face of difficult times and will do anything to survive.

This is shown by the attempts by Phong Dinh to leave Vietnam by boat and being unsuccessful 25 times as the paid boatmen never showed up.

The will to survive and succeed was shown when his eldest child Van Dinh managed to finally leave on a boat after six years.

The correct answer is B) the yellow fever outbreak.

The cause of the jump in prices was the yellow fever outbreak.

We are talking about 1793 in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This was a virus that provoked pain in joints and muscles, as well as fever. Then the virus affected the liver and the kidneys of the patient. Mosquitos were the transmissions of yellow fever. Refugees from the Philipines landed in Philadelphia and that is why they spread the virus in that region of the United States. This virus caused prices to go higher, affecting the economy of the region.

Write a essay about animal farm, the failure of the revolution is a consequence of ignorance and the abuse of power
castortr0y [4]

The social hierarchy and class differences of The Animal Farm caused its demise.

<h3>What is Animal Farm?</h3>

Animal Farm is a satirical allegorical novella by George Orwell that was first published in England on August 17, 1945. It tells the story of a group of farm animals who rebel against their human farmer in the hopes of establishing a society in which the animals can be equal, free, and happy.

Animal Farm is a metaphor for the totalitarian system or the Soviet Union, the pigs for the society's authorities, and each of the other characters in the work serves as an implicit metaphor for other instances as well.
