Answer and Explanation:

The quote "all animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others" was taken from Orwell's novella "Animal Farm". Even though "Animal Farm" criticizes Stalinist Russia, many of the flaws it points out can be noticed everywhere. We are constantly told we are all equal, that all human beings deserve to be treated with fairness in an unprejudiced manner. But, let's face it, some are "more equal than others".

As a woman, I've been through several moments when sexism was used to diminish me. I've been told plenty of times that I wouldn't understand something related to cars or to measuring houses simply because I was not a man. Still, I am more equal than a friend of mine, who is not only a woman, but a black woman. She was telling me the other day of the times she was followed around in department stores. Someone from the staff would watch her every move, afraid she would steal something. As I am white, that has never happened to me. It brought me to the sad realization that equality is still a utopia.

Note: I wrote an answer based on my real-life experiences. Feel free to adapt it to your own reality.

Answer:

D) “because in that condition of life our elementary feelings co-exist in a state of greater simplicity, and, consequently, may be more accurately contemplated”

Explanation:

Rural life was a great inspiration for Wordsworth's work. He always addressed how hard work, contact with nature and the simple life of the countryman had a positive impact on people's lives, personality and even feelings. He believed that this type of environment has a simplicity that makes emotions and feelings simpler and therefore more understandable and easier to be contemplated.
