Its b/c he is probably not using the work hawk to mean like, a bird. hawk has another definition "a person who aggressive of warlike policy" I'd have to see the sentence that comes before this but the poet is probably referring to something aggressive or warlike.

Well, usually most poetry doesn't use the word "the" in the poem. The reason is because it might sound too extra.

Read the passage from chapter 5 of Animal Farm.

trapecia [35]

In Animal Farm (1945) by George Orwell, Napoleon represents Stalin, who built a dictatorship under the guise of communism.

Animal Farm was written by Orwell as a satire on soviet totalitarianism. The animals' rebellion is an allegory of the Russian Revolution in 1917. In that way, the writer portrays the ideals of the revolution as well as the development of political corruption.

Orwell satirizes Joseph Stalin, one of the fathers of the Russian Revolution, by representing him in the figure of a pig, Napoleon. In the novel, he also explores the relationship between Stalin and Trotsky, who is represented by Snowball. In that way, the author equates pigs with human tyrants. This becomes clearer at the end of the novel when it becomes impossible to distinguish men from pigs.

Does anything seem “off” about the two characters and their relationship? Explain.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The two characters of the story, House Taken Over by Julio Cortazar are Irene and her brother who wasn't named.

Here are two things that seem “off” about the two characters and their relationship:

In their forties and still are both unmarried
they both live in the same house.

1. By stating that both characters are old enough to be married but yet aren't creates a sense of surprise to an avid reader because it is rare to find such a situation in society.

2. We are also told both siblings live in the same house which they inherited. This creates another surprise to the reader that grownups who are siblings can stay in the same house for a long time.
