Answer:

(It had been a most unpleasant coincidence that the power outage had come when we had guests staying over; the entire house was full.)

Explanation:

The sentences are sematically linked, so the semicolon is connecting the two sentences coherently.  This means that the semicolon can be replaced by a connector: It had been a most unpleasant coincidence that the power outage had come when we had guests staying over <em>since</em>  the entire house was full. The coherence is related to a known or evident reason.

Can i please get help for both these questions 1. Compare and contrast the conflicts faced by Orwell in “Shooting an Elephant” t
Vesna [10]
I can only answer the 1st question.
Both men in these stories faced peer pressure. They were pressured to go against their own beliefs in order to satisfy society's demands.

<span>“No Witchcraft for Sale.” - In this story, Gideon did not bow down to peer pressure. He kept silent and gave the impression of succumbing to the pressure given to him but doing what he wanted to really do. He gave the wrong root to satisfy the demands of the public. He also signified his displeasure by being more formal to his employers and for keeping his silence.

"</span><span>“Shooting an Elephant” - In this story, the police man gave in to the pressure of shooting the elephant not because it is a legal thing to do but because of self-preservation. He doesn't want to appear as a fool to the public that detests him. He preferred to be hailed as the one who shot the elephant than be further jeered as the one who did not shoot the elephant. 

Both men did what they did to serve their own purpose. Gideon's way was sticking to his values while the police man sacrificed his own values to ensure an acceptable place in the community he lives in.  </span>
