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.

Hello. As shown in the question above, you must write an argumentative essay. An argumentative essay is a text where you present arguments that are your opinions about something. As an opinion and an argument are very personal things, I can't write an essay for you, but I can show you how to write one.

First you must decide what topic you will present in the essay and do research on it. These researches must be done in reliable research sources and that present correct and proven information about the subject that you will be approaching.

Reliable research sources are those that present articles written by experts in the field, are present in academic journals and books, or are present on the websites of reliable institutions. These sites often have the words "org," "edu" and "gov" in their link.

These research sources need to show data and facts that prove their opinion on the topic covered in the essay, that is, they need to show that their opinion is correct and for this reason their argument is valid. As shown in the question above, you need to do this research on at least five research sources.

Once you have defined the subject of your essay and have researched the research sources, you can start writing the essay. An essay can be written as follows:

  • Introduction: Where you will quickly present the subject that will be discussed in your essay and show your position on it. This placement is called the thesis statement and should be placed at the end of your introduction.
  • Body: The body of an essay must have at least two paragraphs and will be the place where you will show your opinions on the subject covered in the essay and will show the evidence, that is, the information that proves that your argument is correct. This information will be taken from your research sources. It will be important that in this essay you write three paragraphs in the body of the essay, in the first two you will show your arguments and the evidence that supports them. In the third paragraph you will show a counterclaim (an argument contrary to yours) and present evidence that proves that this counterclaim is incorrect, contrary to your arguments.
  • Conclusion: Lastly you will end the essay with a conclusion. Here you will present what is the final reasoning that your arguments show in relation to the subject of the essay, besides showing predictions about that subject and how it can affect society.

After that, you should submit a list of your research sources. This list must follow the guidelines of the MLA, which states that a research source must be presented with the following sequence of information:

Author's Last name, First name. "Title of Source." Title of Container, other contributors, version, numbers, publisher, publication date, location.

Example: Anderson, Charles. "Effects of Domestic Violence in Upscale Los Angeles Areas." National Journal of Social Psychology, vol. 23, no. 3, May-June 2018, pp. 161-220.
