As he looks back at the events narrated in "Shooting an Elephant," Orwell admits that he shot the elephant because he did not want to appear foolish or weak in front of the crowd. Orwell realized that he had been compelled to shoot the elephant because of his position as a colonial military officer. With a Burmese audience watching, he felt obligated to shoot the elephant and uphold his place in the colonial system, even though he did not particularly care to shoot the elephant.

Sladkaya [172]

Hi, you've asked an incomplete/unclear question. The full question read;

Which of the phrases below is not in the future perfect continuous?

a) You will have been waiting here for three hours by 8 o'clock.

b) You will be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.

c) By the end of next month I will have been living here for ten years.

d) When I finish this course, I will have been learning Italian for ten years.

e) Next month I will have been working here for two years.

Answer:

b) You will be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.

Explanation:

We make this conclusion because the phrase "will have been" (which is the future perfect of the verb "to be") is often added to the subject of a sentence to make it future perfect continuous.

However, after careful check of all the sentences, we notice all of them except option b used the future perfect continuous phrase, "will have been."
