English
1 answer:
lora16 [44]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

There are three wishes made with the paw while there are also consequence for the wish.

The first wish, is when the Whites did not really believe in the paw, and thought it was a joke, so Mr. White wished 200 pounds. They did got the money afterwards, but their son, Herbert, got mangled in some machine and died, and so they received 200 pounds as a compensation.

The second wish is Mrs. Whites wants Herbert to live again. We should assume that he did got "alive" since in the story someone was knocking fiercely after the wish. However, we need to remember, Herbert died from machine mangling, which means his whole body is basically break in corpse. So the compensation is Herbert's corpse got "alive".

The third wish is Mr.White wished Herbert dead. However, this is not told in the story but it is foreshadowed because after his wish, the knocking goes away.

George Orwell’s “Shooting an Elephant”, which was written in 1936 posits that “when the white man turns tyrant it is his own freedom that he destroys'' (7). Orwell supports his statement through an overarching allegory to colonialism, ambivalent diction, and extended metaphor of one's free will and power. His purpose is to show the complex nature of imperialism and the negative impact it has- not on the subjected peoples- but on the imperialists as well, in order to reveal to the audience that it is an institution of suffering for everyone involved. He conveys his point by explaining the feeling of the pressure of being forced to do what they want him to do despite the fact that it goes against his moral judgement. He undergoes the feeling of being in a position of power and therefore must do what the people want him to do and care for what the other people think of him. Orwells casual and colloquial diction suggests his audience was intended to be broad and varie, in order to ensure the reach of his social commentary.

most of it was correct and flowed nicely :3

there were a few things I fixed though! I hope this helps ^^
