Answer:

The natives did not care about the elephant destroying their homes.

Explanation:

This is the irony that the speaker tries to highlight in the passage. In this text, the speaker feels concerned and overwhelmed at the idea of shooting the elephant. He does not want to do it, but feels forced to because the natives demand it. However, ironically, there does not seem to be any good reason to do so besides the spectacle, as the natives did not seem particularly upset when the elephant was destroying their homes.

What are the two kinds of characterization the author uses to reveal the traits of a character?
pychu [463]
Direct and indirect characterization. direct is explaining it right in the text for example " Thomas was very smart and kind" in direct would be more of using his actions or words to describe him for example "Thomas made another 100 on the test. 'do you need any help? I would be happy to help' said Thomas"

<em>Many tree leaves turn orange, red, or yellow when fall comes- but pines don't. Japanese maples stay red all year! </em>

Meanwhile, pines actually have needles- this causes them to lack chlorophyll, the reason leaves turn colors- for example, maple trees and beech trees turn yellow. Furthermore, the pine trees have no chlorophyll (the main strength of a leaf), however they don't have weakened needles- nevertheless the drop many needles per year even if they did have chlorophyll.
