We can see that Mr White is satisfied with his life and thinks that he has in his life all that he needs. He can wish for anything yet he doesn't know what to wish for because he's got everything that he deems that he needs.

Read the following excerpt from “The Monkey’s Paw” by W.W. Jacobs.

<em>Mr. White took the paw from his pocket and eyed it dubiously. “I don’t know what to wish for, and that’s a fact,” he said slowly. “It seems to me I’ve got all I want.” </em>

<em>“If you only cleared the house, you’d be quite happy, wouldn’t you?” said Herbert, with his hand on his shoulder. “Well, wish for two hundred pounds, then; that’ll just do it.”      </em>

Question: What does the dialogue in this excerpt reveal about Mr. White’s character?

Answer: The dialogue reveals that Mr. White's character is lighthearted.

Explanation: Herbert's reaction to wishing on the paw is more lighthearted   and carefree than Mr. White's reaction.

Reread paragraphs 1-16 and summarize the conditions of BIE schools across the United
allochka39001 [22]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately, but I will try to help you in the best possible way.

BIE schools are government plans to prepare to stimulate quality education in indigenous reserves, allowing Native Americans to have access to good education that will promote many opportunities for them and their tribes. However, the execution of these schools has been something that the government has failed to comply with, many of them never left the paper and those that left live with a strong lack of necessary resources.

The author may have addressed this with phrases that point out the problems that these schools face and how it prevents their objective from being achieved.

Use the drop-down menus to answer the questions about plot and characters in Animal Farm.
Cloud [144]

The book <em>Animal farm</em><em>, </em>an allegorical story about the Russian Revolution (1917) and the Soviet Union, is about a group of farm animals who, dissatisfied with their human farmer, take over the farm. Their goal is that all the animals become equal and happy.

Which two animals often disagree with each other?

Answer: <u>Napoleon</u> and <u>Snowball </u>always disagree with each other.

Explanation:

Napoleon is a pig that becomes a farm leader after <em>the Rebellion</em>. In order to establish authority over other animals, Napoleon uses his nine attack dogs. Snowball, on the other hand, is intelligent and not as harsh as his enemy, Napoleon. Rather than intimidating other animals, Snowball is interested in winning their trust. While Napoleon represents <em>Joseph Stalin</em>, Snowball's character is based on <em>Leon Trotsky</em>.

Which animal does most of the heavy labor?

Answer: <u>Boxer</u> does most of the heavy labor.

Explanation:

Boxer's personal motto is <em>''I will work harder!"</em> He is certainly hard-working and dedicated, and is convinced that every problem can be solved through hard work. Boxer is portrayed as powerful but naive, and his character is<em> an allegory for Russian working-class </em>that contributed to the establishment of the Soviet Union, but ended up betrayed by Stalin.

What does Snowball try to teach the animals to do?

Answer: <u>Snowball tries to teach the animals how to read and write.</u>

Explanation:

Snowball organizes the animals into <em>Animal Committees</em> that have different goals. There is, for instance, the Clean Tails League, and Re-education Committee. The goal of the latter is to <em>re-educate the rats and rabbits</em>. Snowball does succeed in his plan to teach the animals how to read and write, although other committees generally fail to achieve their goals. The pigs, for example, learn to fluently read and write.

What is the name of the incident in which Farmer Jones tries to retake the farm?

Answer: <u>The Battle of the Cowshed.</u>

Explanation:

In <em>Chapter 4</em>, the Battle of the Cowshed takes place. One day, the animals are working when they notice Mr. Jones and his men entering the gates of the farm. The animals realize that the men came to retake the farm by force. Snowball has already prepared a defense plan based on a book about Julius Caesar's strategy, so he eventually defeats the humans with only one animal death as a result. Mr. Jones has no other option but to flee the farm and never come back.
