Answer:

The correct answer is option B.  Old, sickly people and young laborers are useless to the nation because they cannot be productive citizens.

Explanation:

In this excerpt we can see how the author addresses the issue of how old and sick people cannot get a job and not only that, they starve and die of cold.

The author also ironically remarks how young workers "are now in almost as hopeful a condition." and talks about how they can't get a job either.

Exactly the use of this irony is what is considered as "satirical tone".

Given this information we can say that the correct answer is option B.

In <br> animal farm, what is the primary difference between boxer and benjamin ?
Klio2033 [76]
 <span>Boxer - the workhorse. He believes things will get better if he works harder and trusts the pig leadership will help him. He is considered the metaphor for the common people in Russia whom believed the Revolution and overthrow of the Russian monarchy would help them. They are trusting and easily manipulated like Boxer. 

Benjamin - the cynical goat. He has seen the cycle of power struggles and knows that nothing will get better with the pigs' leadership. He is never really happy and trusts no animals but Boxer and loves him until Boxer is taken away to his death. 

Similarities: Both animals are controlled by the pig regime whether they like it or not. Both find friends in each other and try to make best of what they have</span>

Explanation:

A conjunction is a word used to connect other words, phrases, or clauses inside a sentence. A coordinating conjunction, more specifically, connects parts that have the same importance inside a sentence. It doesn't establish a subordinating relationship between clauses, for example. Both clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction are equally important. The coordinating conjunctions are: FANBOYS (for, and, not, but, or, yet, so).

Subordinating conjunctions are used to introduce a dependent clause. They establish a relationship of dependence in the sentence - for the subordinate clause the make sense, it needs the main one. Examples of subordinating conjunctions are: whenever, while, until, although, because, if, even though, etc.

Finally, correlative conjunctions are pairs of words that connect two ideas. These ideas are usually expressed in similar structures. They are: neither... nor, either... or, both... and, not only... but also, whether... or, so/as... as.
