Read the passage from chapter 5 of Animal Farm.
trapecia [35]

In<em> Animal Farm </em>(1945) by George Orwell<em>,</em> Napoleon represents Stalin, who built a dictatorship under the guise of communism.

<em>Animal Farm </em>was written by Orwell as <u>a satire on soviet totalitarianism</u>. The animals' rebellion is an allegory of the Russian Revolution in 1917. In that way, the writer portrays the ideals of the revolution as well as the development of political corruption.

Orwell satirizes Joseph Stalin, one of the fathers of the Russian Revolution, by representing him in the figure of a pig, Napoleon. In the novel, he also explores the relationship between Stalin and Trotsky, who is represented by Snowball. In that way,<u> the author equates pigs with human tyrants</u>. This becomes clearer at the end of the novel when it becomes impossible to distinguish men from pigs.

Which sentences demonstrate correct use of commas with quotation marks?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

"Don't make me angry," Harry shouted, "or I'll really lose it!"

"You go look for Hagrid," said Hermoine.

Explanation:

In American English, these are the rules when it comes to the ways quotation marks and other punctuation marks are written:

  • Commas and periods always go inside the quotation marks <em>("You go look for Hagrid</em><em>,</em><em>" said Hermoine.)</em>
  • Dashes, colons, and semicolons almost always go outside the quotation marks.
  • Question marks and exclamation marks sometimes go inside and sometimes stay outside.

When you're splitting a quotation in half, you should add a comma after the speaker to separate the speaker from the second part of the quote <em>("Don't make me angry</em><em>,</em><em>" Harry shouted</em><em>,</em><em> "or I'll really lose it!").</em>
