The sneering yellow face

The right answer is the C: The sneering yellow faces. This scornful and offensive characterization of the Burman (or Bamar) spectators that are attending the football match is the one that most clearly shows an imperialistic attitude in the narrator, an English man who is working as a police officer in Burma and has been charged with the task of shooting an elephant that has killed a local. One of the themes of this story by George Orwell is, in fact, British imperialism and the disastrous consequences that it had for the peoples it subjugated and exploited.

1. Can you think of an advertisement for a product or a polítical
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Presidential Campaign ads

Explanation:

Political ads and campaigns put a lot of money into their ads and the people who make them put a lot of thought into how the symbols, music and photos in those ads could affect your emotions.  The whole point of the ad is to list the other atrocities of the other runner and put yourself in a better light. This leads the viewer to either sympathize or support the focal point of the campaign.

How does Fredrick Douglass view the effect of slavery on human nature?
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

He felt that the way people treated slaves was not humanly and that we were treating them like animals. Douglass believes that it is not in the nature of men and women to be slaves or slave owners. It requires great effort to possess the attributes of a slave and endure the tortures and humiliation inflicted on a person by a slave owner. Similarly, it requires considerable mental effort for a slave owner to be able to commit such dreadful actions against a fellow human being with no feeling of remorse or compassion. Douglass believes that it is not in the nature of men and women to be slaves or slave owners. It requires great effort to possess the attributes of a slave and endure the tortures and humiliation inflicted on a person by a slave owner. Similarly, it requires considerable mental effort for a slave owner to be able to commit such dreadful actions against a fellow human being with no feeling of remorse or compassion: One cannot easily forget to love freedom; and it is as hard to cease to respect that natural love in our fellow creatures. Through his slave narrative, Douglass attempts to show that slavery distorts the natural compassion inhererent in humans.
