The fire seems to not move at all, as if it were paralyzed.

"Shooting an Elephant" is an essay by English writer George Orwell. In "Shooting an Elephant." The essay illustrates the experience of the English narrator, possibly Orwell himself, to shoot an aggressive elephant while working as a police officer in Burma.

“Shooting an Elephant” is set in Moulmein, in Lower Burma. The narrator is Orwell.

Answer:

"she expressed<em> them </em>imperfectly”

Explanation:

The speaker is not complying with concord. Her reference is ,realised by <em>them</em>,  ambiguous. <em>Them</em> lacks any reference if we move backwards in the excerpt. We may assume <em>them</em> refers to what she had to say,but <em>it</em> shoudl have been used , instead. However, <em>them</em> may refer to <em>thoughts</em> that comes later in the excerpt:"She expressed<em> them</em> imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect.", in these sentences ,which are not coherently linked , we infer that <em>them</em> is referring to <em>thoughts.</em>

lisabon 2012 [21]

         The excerpt uses explicit details in the following way: it provides a <u>physical description</u> of Sarah Penn (small woman, short waist, gray hair, mild forehead, downward lines about her nose and mouth). All of it is explicit, since there is no room for interpretation, it is what it is. In other words, such details are concrete ones, since they are physical and nothing else.

         As for implicit details, we can find them in a figure of speech (a <u>hypallage</u>, which uses an adjective or participle to describe a noun other than the person or thing it is in fact describing): we learn Sarah Penn's forehead was benevolent, that is, it showed her benevolence (an implicit detail, since it was Sarah, and not her forehead, that was benevolent). It is a trait which implicitly tells something about the character's personality. There is also the description of <u>meek downward lines</u> about her nose and mouth. Again, a hypallage which implicitly tells us something about the character: it is Sarah who is gentle and humble, and not the lines about her nose and mouth.
