Read the passage from Animal Farm. "Boxer!" cried Clover in a terrible voice. "Boxer! Get out! Get out quickly! They're taking y

ou to your death!" All the animals took up the cry of "Get out, Boxer, get out!" But the van was already gathering speed and drawing away from them. It was uncertain whether Boxer had understood what Clover had said. But a moment later his face disappeared from the window and there was the sound of a tremendous drumming of hoofs inside the van. He was trying to kick his way out. The time had been when a few kicks from Boxer's hoofs would have smashed the van to matchwood. But alas! his strength had left him; and in a few moments the sound of drumming hoofs grew fainter and died away. In desperation the animals began appealing to the two horses which drew the van to stop. "Comrades, comrades!" they shouted. "Don't take your own brother to his death!" But the stupid brutes, too ignorant to realise what was happening, merely set back their ears and quickened their pace. Boxer's face did not reappear at the window. Too late, someone thought of racing ahead and shutting the five-barred gate; but in another moment the van was through it and rapidly disappearing down the road. Boxer was never seen again.

A) It is important to recognize a dictatorship before it is too late.

B)Maintaining physical strength is imperative in a dictatorship.

Hello. You did not submit the text that this question refers to. This makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

To answer this question you will need to read all the text it is related to. During this reading, you will need to identify an act of kindness that Doctor DoLittle performs that causes so many animals to exist in his house. This act of kindness can be rescuing injured animals, feeding hungry animals, not rejecting animals that look for him, not sending these animals away, among others. The important thing is that you find an act of kindness that results in the amount of animals that Doctor DoLittle has in his home.

She went to the open door and stood in it and looked out among the tomato vines and "jimpson" weeds that constituted the garden.
"It's mighty hard to make him work Saturdays, when all the boys is having holiday, but he hates work more than he hates anything else, and I've got to do some of my duty by him, or I'll be the ruination of the child."
While Tom was eating his supper, and stealing sugar as opportunity offered, Aunt Polly asked him questions that were full of guile, and very deep—for she wanted to trap him into damaging revealments.
She went to the open door and stood in it and looked out among the tomato vines and "jimpson" weeds that constituted the garden.
