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.

Citing passages from a text is one way to _____
Oksanka [162]

Citing passages from a text is one way to provide elaboration in an essay.

The reason why this would be your answer is because when you cite your source, it allows to person to go to the source to see more information about the quote you got, and not leave them empty handed. If you didn't cite you source, it would be considered plagiarism, and wouldn't allow the reader to get to know more about the quote and what happens.
