I'd go with B.

It'd make sense to want to stand out if the staff read a lot of essays per day. You don't want yours to be included with the uninteresting "same-old" pile.

In at least 100 words , explain the reason Franklin included the interaction between Conrad Weiser and the Native American in “r
Dmitrij [34]

He was trying to show the view of the Native Americans from a peer's experiences. He believed that the clash between the whites and Native Americans was because they didn't respect each other's customs and beliefs. Franklin wanted to give the Native Americans a voice.  The Indian men, when young, are hunters and warriors, when old, counselors; for all their government is by counsel of the sages; there is no force, there are no prisons, no officers to compel obedience, or inflict punishment. Hence they generally study oratory, the best speaker having the most influence. The Indian women till the ground, dress the food, nurse and bring up the children, and preserve and hand down to posterity the memory of public transactions. These employments of men and women are accounted natural and honorable. Having few artificial wants, they have abundance of leisure for improvement by conversation. Our laborious manner of life, compared with theirs, they esteem slavish and base; and the learning, on which we value ourselves, they regard as frivolous and useless. An instance of this occurred at the Treaty of Lancaster, in Pennsylvania, anno 1744, between the government of Virginia and the Six Nations

How does Orwell use satirical techniques to develop the theme that the abuse of language is part of the abuse of power? Select t
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Orwell uses satirical reversal when Napoleon and the pigs act against their stated principles.

Orwell uses verbal irony when Animal Farm takes on its original name, The Manor Farm.

Explanation:

Satirical techniques are those language techniques used by writers to make their stories or characters seem more or less of what they are and also present an image of what they are like. They may include elements such as irony, hyperbole, exaggeration, ,etc.

In the allegorical novel <em>Animal Farm</em>, George Orwell employs this technique to satirize the abuse of language and how it has been used to show an abuse of power. This is achieved through the <u>satirical reversal of roles or ideals where Napoleon and his 'follower' pigs act against their very own stated principles</u>. Moreover, he uses <u>verbal irony to bring about the name of the farm as Animal Farm from the original name of Manor Farm</u>.  These two instances prove that the abuse of language is also part of the abuse of power.
