Answer:

Unnecessary enforcement of total control over another person or creature would lead to abuse, violence and even death.

Explanation:

In his essay, shooting an elephant, George Orwell was able to describes how the souls of both colonists and their subjects get corrupted by colonialism. It expresses colonialism as a terrible ideology which evades human right and treatment.

Colonialism could change a man to become what he was not by being used against the will of his people due to a superior influence, expectations or command.

The statement that describe the main theme of the essay is that unnecessary enforcement of total control over another person or creature would lead to abuse, violence and even death.

What events or conflict happen in the Life of Pi to emphasize the theme?
german

Answer:

The major conflict is related to Pi's fight for survival after he is stranded at sea when the ship that he and his family are travelling to Canada on sinks. To resolve this conflict, he has to face both internal and external challenges. The biggest conflict Pi faces are against the natural environment. Pi also faces terrifying weather conditions that make life at sea unpredictable. Pi describes a storm that ''came on slowly one afternoon. The clouds looked as if they were stumbling along before the wind, frightened. The sea took its cue. It started rising and falling in a manner that made my heart sink.'' The storm destroys the raft and many of the supplies on the lifeboat. He also faces many other challenges, such as being forced to battle the elements, animals, and a carnivorous island while stranded at sea. This links directly to the theme, which is about struggling to survive through difficult odds. The shipwrecked inhabitants of the little lifeboat don’t simply give up: they actively fight against it. Pi abandons his lifelong vegetarianism and eats fish to sustain himself. Orange Juice, the peaceful orangutan, fights ferociously against the hyena. Even the severely wounded zebra battles to stay alive; his slow, painful struggle clearly shows the sheer strength of his life force. As Martel makes clear in his novel, living creatures will often do unexpected, and sometimes heroic things to survive. However, they will also do barbaric things if pressed. The hyena’s treachery and the blind Frenchman’s turn toward cannibalism show just how far creatures will go when faced with the possibility of extinction.

Hope this helped!
