Read the excerpt below, then answer the question. One day in spring four men were riding on horseback along a country road. Thes

e men were lawyers, and they were going to the next town to attend court. There had been a rain, and the ground was very soft. Water was dripping from the trees, and the grass was wet. The four lawyers rode along, one behind another; for the pathway was narrow, and the mud on each side of it was deep. They rode slowly, and talked and laughed and were very jolly. As they were passing through a grove of small trees, they heard a great fluttering over their heads and a feeble chirping in the grass by the roadside. "Stith! stith! stith!" came from the leafy branches above them. "Cheep! cheep! cheep!" came from the wet grass. "What is the matter here?" asked the first lawyer, whose name was Speed. "Oh, it's only some old robins!" said the second lawyer, whose name was Hardin. "The storm has blown two of the little ones out of the nest. They are too young to fly, and the mother bird is making a great fuss about it.” "What a pity! They'll die down there in the grass," said the third lawyer, whose name I forget. "Oh, well! They're nothing but birds," said Mr. Hardin. "Why should we bother?" "Yes, why should we?" said Mr. Speed. Where does the story take place? What additional information is provided by the location? Your answer should be 3 to 4 sentences.

Answer:

Where does the story take place?  They seem to be walking through the woods due to being under the trees where they hear the birds.  It also seems to take place before there were cars due to the fact that they are lawyers and they are riding horses.  It is also interesting to note that they were going into the next town - riding horses.....

Explanation:

Hope this helps.

How does the introduction of Minimus the poet support the author's purpose?
lara [203]

Answer: Here is the poem.

They had just finished singing it for the third time when Squealer, attended by two dogs, approached them with the air of having something important to say. He announced that, by a special decree of Comrade Napoleon, "Beasts of England" had been abolished. From now onwards it was forbidden to sing it. The animals were taken aback. "Why?" cried Muriel. "It's no longer needed, comrade," said Squealer stiffly. "'Beasts of England' was the song of the Rebellion. But the Rebellion is now completed. The execution of the traitors this afternoon was the final act. The enemy both external and internal has been defeated. In 'Beasts of England' we expressed our longing for a better society in days to come. But that society has now been established. Clearly this song has no longer any purpose." Frightened though they were, some of the animals might possibly have protested, but at this moment the sheep set up their usual bleating of "Four legs good, two legs bad," which went on for several minutes and put an end to the discussion. So "Beasts of England" was heard no more. In its place Minimus, the poet, had composed another song which began: Animal Farm, Animal Farm, Never through me shalt thou come to harm! and this was sung every Sunday morning after the hoisting of the flag. But somehow neither the words nor the tune ever seemed to the animals to come up to "Beasts of England

Minimus represents the producers of state-approved songs and slogans in Stalin's era.

Explanation:

The exercept was from "Animal farm"was an Utopian satire written by George Orwell and it was published in 1945. This was a fable based on Russian communistic system during g the Satllin regime and the betrayal of the cause of Joseph Satlin betrayal. The satire illustrate illustrate the way Stalinism had betrayed the ideals of the socialist revolution in the Soviet Union. The poet Minimus introduces a new song that is sung on Sunday mornings
