Answer:
"The water ran down from her hair and clothes; it ran down into the toes of her shoes and out again at the heels."
or
"One evening a terrible storm came on; there was thunder and lightning, and the rain poured down in torrents."
Explanation:
The first one shows the girl in a poor state. One would assume that she is just an ordinary girl in need of help. But it foreshadows that she may be a princess. (More than just an ordinary girl). Looks can be deceiving.
and the second quotation portrays that it is a bad moment in the text because it is grey and raining. "Torrents" has a negative connotation, hinting towards the fact that this kind of weather is sad and depressing and nothing good can possibly come out of it. But looks can be deceiving. The sad prince might find his princess and this sad moment might become a happy one.
Hope this made sense.

Answer: Last week a very drunk man got into a bus and sat near a skinny girl. She looked at him with contempt and told him that he was very drunk and that it was quite distinguished. She asked him what would his mom and dad feel when he arrived home like that. He asked If her husband slept with a dry stick, or what.
Explanation: Reported speech takes a dialogue said by a specific person, and changes it to its past form, to report the information to the listener. When the girl talks to the man, she uses simple present and future, therefore, the reported speech changes the tenses to simple past and would: "She told him that he was very drunk and that it was quite distinguished. She asked him what would his mom and dad feel when he arrived home like that." Then, the man responded with simple present, so it changes to simple past: "He asked If her husband slept with a dry stick, or what."

Which of the following does Orwell use to link the parallel structures in this excerpt from Animal Farm?
A. correlative conjunction
B. coordinating conjunction
C. word to introduce a comparison
D. phrase to introduce a comparison
Answer:
What Orwell uses to link the parallel structures is a:
A. correlative conjunction.
Explanation:
A conjunction is a word that we use to connect other words, phrases, or clauses in a sentence. A correlative conjunction is basically a pair of conjunctions used to connect two ideas in a sentence. Examples of correlative conjunctions are: neither/nor; either/or; both/and; not only/ but also.
In the sentence extracted from Orwell's allegorical novella "Animal Farm", the correlative conjunction "either/or" is used to introduce the parallel structures "that food would become more plentiful" and "that the windmill would save work."
<em>He refused to believe </em><em>either</em><em> that food would become more plentiful </em><em>or</em><em> that the windmill would save work.</em>
