Answer:

a.) Even though he would be the first to draw, Mr. Adams nervously enters the lottery as is expected of him. To his neighbors he mentions the idea of dismissing the lottery. This suggestion proves contrary to the normal process, so Adams ultimately fulfills his duty by initiating the attack.

Explanation:

Mr. Adams wanted to end the lottery, however at last, he just gave in light of the fact that it was expected from him.

As we begin performing The Crucible this week. A few questions to ponder:

Ann [662]

Answer:

1.- No and yes, they should be forgiven by society in order to move on.

2.- The spouse are to "blame" and it's not justified and no one can say that its was pushed to cheat.

Explanation:

1.- People who commit a serious crime can't change but they could learn to control their impulses but they will always be there, I mean, not in all cases because someone who commited a serious crime in self-defense, they don't even have to learn to control because they don't have the intention/impulse to do it again; as for the forgiveness of society, this is fair to happen only if they already compulgated their sentence.

2.- When I say blame, it is not in all the extension of the word because when a person decides to cheat it's because the relationship he/she is in, it's over [love is gone, routine, unhappiness, etc...] and the two people inside that relationship let it happen, therefore I say the two are to blame although it's not a fault as such. And no one can be justified or pushed to cheat, everyone has the power on their own actions, so if someone cheats it's because they took that decision and the consequences of it.

3.- In a literary form it's in did nobler to die with integrity but that, in reality can hardly ever become true because in the world that we live in and in order to survive in this society, at some point we will have to compromised our principles and affect other people and learn to live with it.

4.- Because the worst enemy of people is fear, it was B.C. and A.F. and it will continue to be till the end of times because even though we have records of the consequences of irrationality, we don't care when we face the unknow, it's a simple survival instinct.

Use the drop-down menus to answer the questions about plot and characters in Animal Farm.

Cloud [144]

The book Animal farm, an allegorical story about the Russian Revolution (1917) and the Soviet Union, is about a group of farm animals who, dissatisfied with their human farmer, take over the farm. Their goal is that all the animals become equal and happy.

Which two animals often disagree with each other?

Answer: Napoleon and Snowball always disagree with each other.

Explanation:

Napoleon is a pig that becomes a farm leader after the Rebellion. In order to establish authority over other animals, Napoleon uses his nine attack dogs. Snowball, on the other hand, is intelligent and not as harsh as his enemy, Napoleon. Rather than intimidating other animals, Snowball is interested in winning their trust. While Napoleon represents Joseph Stalin, Snowball's character is based on Leon Trotsky.

Which animal does most of the heavy labor?

Answer: Boxer does most of the heavy labor.

Explanation:

Boxer's personal motto is ''I will work harder!" He is certainly hard-working and dedicated, and is convinced that every problem can be solved through hard work. Boxer is portrayed as powerful but naive, and his character is an allegory for Russian working-class that contributed to the establishment of the Soviet Union, but ended up betrayed by Stalin.

What does Snowball try to teach the animals to do?

Answer: Snowball tries to teach the animals how to read and write.

Explanation:

Snowball organizes the animals into Animal Committees that have different goals. There is, for instance, the Clean Tails League, and Re-education Committee. The goal of the latter is to re-educate the rats and rabbits. Snowball does succeed in his plan to teach the animals how to read and write, although other committees generally fail to achieve their goals. The pigs, for example, learn to fluently read and write.

What is the name of the incident in which Farmer Jones tries to retake the farm?

Answer: The Battle of the Cowshed.

Explanation:

In Chapter 4, the Battle of the Cowshed takes place. One day, the animals are working when they notice Mr. Jones and his men entering the gates of the farm. The animals realize that the men came to retake the farm by force. Snowball has already prepared a defense plan based on a book about Julius Caesar's strategy, so he eventually defeats the humans with only one animal death as a result. Mr. Jones has no other option but to flee the farm and never come back.
