Answer:

This work by George Orwell is classified as a reflective essay because it shows a personal reflection of the author's life where he describes his experiences.

Explanation:

George Orwell's "Shooting An Elephant" is a biographical account of Orwell and his experience as a Burmese police officer in the British Indian colony. Although there have been debates about whether Orwell was the official represented in the story, or whether he was a colleague, the focus of the story is the narrator's internal struggle to complete his duty as an officer of the British Empire. to avoid looking like an idiot in front of the Burmese people. While the narrator knows he needs to perform certain duties because of his position, he does not necessarily feel that the British oppression of the Burmese people is the right thing. However, the Burmese people do not facilitate their work because they resent their position as oppressor, and this creates an ugly cycle of increasing ill-treatment on both sides. Thus British imperialism as a whole is under fire in the narrative, a common theme of Orwell's writings. In this little story, Orwell explores important themes such as the evils of imperialism, the crisis of conscience, and the struggle with pride.

What can you infer from the text as to Lizabeth's reasons for her final act of destruction?
Novosadov [1.4K]

Lizabeth understands the destroying of Mrs. Lottie' marigolds as her final act of childhood, the final act of innocence.

Lizabeth feelings that led her to destroy the marigolds were "the great need for my mother who was never there, the hopelessness  of our poverty and degradation, the bewilderment of being neither child nor woman  and yet both at once, the fear unleashed by my father’s tears".

The story is situated during the Great Depression. Her mother is never home because she has to work, her father cries because he can't provide for his family. You add the hopelessness of their poverty and the fact that she is going through defining times between being a woman and a child she doesn't understand at the moment, she must have felt confused and lonely, which leads to the destruction of the marigolds as an impulse she can't control.

Before she has stated that she hated those marigolds because they have the nerve to be beautiful in the midst of ugliness, they didn't match with the house, the times, and what she was feeling inside.
