What, if anything, scares you about the future Orwell describes? Why or why not?

English
1 answer:
Anna [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

In many of his works, Orwell describes the possibility of a future in which totalitarian states, independently of the ideology, exercise total control over the people, who instead of being citizens, become more like slaves.

A particularly scaring prospect is totalitarian control even over one's mind, because we as humans, assume that at least in inside our minds we will always be free.

This is actually one of the central premises of Orwell's most famous book: the dystopian classic 1984. In this work, the protagonist, Winston Smith, ends up becoming a slave to the totalitarian leader, Big Brother, not only because he is obliged to, but also because his mind has been so manipulated, that he willingly gives up his freedom of thought and becomes another drone of the system.

How does Lincoln most closely end the Second Inaugural Address, as noted in the section below?
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

I believe the best answer to be letter D) With a request to the nation to focus on healing.

Explanation:

Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address is usually described as a speech advocating for the reconstruction of the United States once the Civil War was over. At the time, many were the critics who saw the president as too lenient in his treatment of the southern states. But Lincoln wanted to show "malice toward none" and "charity for all". He wanted the country to heal from the sickness of that war, which he claimed to be a divine punishment that had fallen upon them for the sin of slavery. If in order to heal he had to be lenient, then lenient he would be. In the passage provided, Lincoln makes it clear it is his intention to take care of all who were affected by the war - thus, it doesn't matter if it is the North or the South. He also states that  justice and peace must be the goal. Taking all that into consideration, I believe the best option to be letter D) With a request to the nation to focus on healing.

PLEASE HELP, DUE TODAYA! After reading "The Outsiders" in its entirety, what do readers learn about the exposition and resolutio
KIM [24]

Answer:

The exposition of "The Outsiders" reveals the main character of the story, Ponyboy and his friend group 'Greasers' and his rival group 'Socs.'

In resolution, the readers come to know about the reality of the story. Ponyboy was writing his English assignment that his teacher gave.

The similarities between exposition and resolution is that the characters and setting are same as in the beginning and ending of the story.

Explanation:

The exposition of a story is the introduction in which the characters and settings are introduced.

In the exposition of the novel "The Outsiders" the characters and the setting is introduced. The narrator of the story is a boy named Ponyboy. In the exposition, readers are introduced to Ponyboy and his group of friends, and they call themselves 'Greasers.' The rival group of Greasers were also introduced, that is, 'Socs.'

The resolution is the ending of the story in which all conflicts are resolved.

In the resolution of the novel, not only the conflicts are resolved but the readers come to the light that the whole novel was nothing but Ponyboy's English assignment that his teacher gave him. In the resolution, when Ponyboy writes "When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the moviehouse" the readers can also imagine themselves coming out into the bright sunlight from the imagination of Ponyboy.

The similarities that both the exposition and the resolution shares is that the setting and the characters are same. In exposition the story began with Ponyboy waiting outside the moviehouse and in resolution also we see him in the same setting.
