I think the first quote best supports the theme "the power of language"
In Orwell's novel <em>Animal Farm </em>the choice in setting is a decisive factor when constructing the allegory that the text is trying to convey. The farm, once ruled by humans and later ruled by the pigs is called Manor Farm. Each part of the farm has special symbolism and contributes to the deeper meaning of the novel. Each part will be described and analyzed in the following essay.
It's important to analyze the farm as a whole in order to understand the significance that the setting truly contains. The Manor Farm is used as a metaphor for communist Russia in this particular case, but could be applied to any society since its organized and ruled in the same manner a country would be. It also contains a series of complex relationships between the characters and their role within this society.
Inside the general setting, The Manor Farm, there are multiple spaces that contribute to the construction of the metaphor. The barn,for example symbolizes the oppression enforced by the ruling class (the pigs). The Seven Commandments are written on the walls of this barn, and later altered to suit the pig's interests. The windmill is another part of the setting that contains a deeper meaning. The pigs manipulate the rest of the animals into reconstructing the windmill even though there are more pressing needs at hand. The windmill is a perfect example of the greed and shrewdness that characterizes the ruling class.
In conclusion, the author uses the setting choice as an effective tool to construct the metaphor within the text. Orwell uses the farm as an allegory for communist Russia, and the spaces inside it to criticize the tyranny that sets it apart. Spaces such as the barn and the windmill are symbols of the abuse that unlimited power can lead to and aid in the construction of the mayor themes that the novel contains.
After Johnny’s death, Ponyboy wanders alone for hours until a man offers him a ride. The man asks Ponyboy if he is okay and tells him that his head is bleeding. Ponyboy feels vaguely disoriented. At home, he finds the greasers gathered in the living room and tells them that Johnny is dead and that Dally has broken down. Dally calls and says he just robbed a grocery store and is running from the police. The gang rushes out and sees police officers chasing him. Dally pulls out the unloaded gun he carries, and the police shoot him. Dally collapses to the ground, dead. Ponyboy muses that Dally wanted to die. Feeling dizzy and overwhelmed, Ponyboy passes out.
When Ponyboy wakes, Darry is at his side. Ponyboy learns that he got a concussion when a Soc kicked him in the head during the rumble, and that he has been delirious in bed for three days.
Analysis: Chapters 9–10
Underlying the struggle between the Socs and the greasers is the struggle between the instinct to make peace and the social obligation to fight. Hinton turns the rumble into a moral lesson. The fight begins when Darry Curtis and Paul Holden face off; the fact that Darry and Paul were high school friends and football teammates suggests that their rivalry need not exist—that money makes enemies of natural friends. Ponyboy’s comment that they used to be friends but now dislike each other because one has to work for a living while the other comes from the leisurely West Side emphasizes the artificial and unnecessary nature of their animosity. While this animosity seems pointless, each gang member who fights still feels a responsibility to his gang to hate the other gang.
Ponyboy feels this tension within him before the fight. His instincts tell him to skip the rumble, as he knows in his heart that violence won’t solve anything. His hesitation after speaking with Randy and his decision to take five aspirin before the fight show that he is emotionally and physically unprepared for the ordeal. Nevertheless, Ponyboy ignores his instincts and goes through with the fight because he wants to please his social group. His participation in the rumble cements his place in the gang; he is no longer a tagalong little brother but rather a fighter in his own right.
I think the answer would be B
