What sentence/paragraph in animal farm shows internal conflict?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Since no answer choices were provided, we can say an example of internal conflict in "Animal Farm" is when Boxer feels confused by the expulsion of Snowball.

<h3>What is internal conflict?</h3>

First, let's keep in mind that, in literature, conflict is the struggle between forces that have opposite purposes. An internal conflict is the type of struggle that happens inside the character's mind, when the character feels:

  • Torn
  • Confused
  • Afraid
  • Anxious

Since no answer choices were provided for this question, we can mention one example of internal conflict in "Animal Farm" that may help you answer the question. At a certain point in the story, the horse Boxer is extremely confused about the expulsion of Snowball, one of the pigs who were in charge of governing the farm.

Boxer believes in their government and works hard to make things better for all animals. He saw Snowball as someone he could trust. Snowball's expulsion from the farm leaves Boxer confused, which shows his internal conflict - should he or should he not trust the government?

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided above is correct and can help you with this question.

In the space provided, explain the 5 tools for decoding unfamiliar words using context clues. First, identify each of the 5 tool
Inga [223]

Answer:

) Identify the 5 tools and provide

description:

The 5 tools for decoding unfamiliar words are:

1) Root word and affix: Prefixes like (in-, dis-, mis-), and suffixes like (-ble,

-ful, -less, -ly, -men), can help clarify the meaning of the word.

2) Tone: hearing the tone given to the sentence may help understand the feeling

of the word.  

3) Definition: The word or phrase may be defined again in the sentence.

4) Example or illustration: There might be examples or illustrations in the

text that lead to the understanding of the word. Usually they are provided

after the use of words such as: such as, other, include, these, and for example.

5) Grammar: Understanding whether a word is a noun, pronoun, adjective, adverb,

verb, can help to determine the purpose of the sentence and meaning of the

word.

B) Provide an example of how it is used to help

decode an unfamiliar word.

1) Root word and

affix: “Circumference”, with the root Circum- meaning Around.

2) Tone: “The lugubrious cries of the child”. Lugubrious meaning Sad,

Depressing.

3) Definition: “Wendy was known as capricious, with unpredictable behavior that

made her mood change quickly”. The word Capricious is later described in the

sentence.

4) Example or illustration: “The town planted many coniferous trees around the

park, including pines, firs, and spruces”. A list of examples is provided to

describe what kind of tree it is.

5) Grammar: “The school could avert the spread of flu by closing the school”. Avert

is a verb. Understanding the other actions in the sentence may lead to understating

the meaning of the word.

C) Evaluate the usefulness of each tool and

assess in which situations you would use each tool for decoding.

1) Root word and

affix: This is probably the most useful one. It can be used anytime and for

almost any word.

2) Tone: It could be misleading in some cases. It is one of the least useful

ones as it does not guarantee the knowledge of the word, but it can only give

an idea of what it might mean, more or less.

3) Definition: This is only useful if an explanation is given.

4) Example or illustration: These are very useful as they jump right to the

eye. It can be used when there is a list of examples and the words “such as,

other, include, these, and for example” are present.

5) Grammar: This tool might be the least useful one, as it could result

complicated to identify the grammar of the word. It could be used when you are

sure if the word is either a noun, a pronoun, an adjective, an adverb, or a

verb.
