After reading the excerpt from "Animal Farm" in which the commandment is changed, we can say we have an example of the following type of satire:
A. Reversal, because the commandment has changed in meaning.
<h3>What is reversal?</h3>
- The type of satire known as reversal happens when the author changes a situation, inverting the way things would normally be, usually with the purpose of making it absurd.
<h3>How is this excerpt an example of reversal?</h3>
- Originally, the commandment created by the animals living in Animal Farm was that all animals are equal. That was their aim - to create a society where animals were equal, treated fairly, and able to live freely and happily.
- However, with the new commandment, the situation has changed drastically. The pigs, who are the rulers of the farm, are now behaving like humans. They see themselves as superior to the other animals, and the commandment makes that clear.
- The situation has been so completely reversed that the animals are back to square one, as if they were still subjugated to humans, rather than ruling themselves.
With the information above in mind, we can choose letter A as the best option.

This question is missing the options. I have found the complete question online. We are supposed to fill in the blanks with the appropriate word or phrase:
Prices at the mall were outrageous,______, considerably higher than at other shopping centers.
A. or at least
B. in other words
C. not to say
Answer:
Prices at the mall were outrageous, A. or at least, considerably higher than at other shopping centers.
Explanation:
<u>"Or at least" is used when we add similar information to what has already been said, but not identical. It is as if we are rethinking what we said and specifying it better, being careful to not exaggerate. </u>
For example: "He hates ice cream, or at least I think he does, because he never has ice cream when he is with me." "Or at least" was used in the sentence to explain why I think he hates ice cream and to show that maybe the first piece of information was an exaggeration.
<u>This is the best phrase to use in the sentence given in the question. The speaker first says the prices are outrageous, be then he thinks again and uses "or at least" to show that the prices are higher than in other malls. Perhaps they were not outrageous after all.</u>
They are happy because there is one day that you can save the trees
This sentence would be a conditional in the sense that it is predicting something will happen as the result of something else happening. In general this is typical.
