Answer:

Lincoln said:

"I am glad I made the late race. It gave me a hearing on the great and durable questions of the age, which I could have had in no other way; and though I now sink out of view, and shall be forgotten, I believe I have made some marks which will tell for the cause of civil liberty long after I am gone."

Explain how Squealer's description in the 2nd paragraph, "Squealer was so fat that he could with difficulty see out of his eyes"
jekas [21]

Answer:

In literature, when the author uses exaggeration/oversimplification of certain character traits, it is referred to as a caricature. Often insulting, caricatures can also be complimentary or even have a political purpose.

In George Orwell's political allegory, <em>Animal farm</em>, Squealer is one of the three most important animals who rebel against their human farmer. Squealer comes as a clever character with good persuasion techniques. He is, however, quite selfish and power-hungry (like most of the leaders). The very fact that he is described as having a difficulty with seeing "out of his eyes" speaks volumes about both his physical appearance and personality. He is a very fat pig, indeed, but he also only cares about his own interests.

Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but "to BIND us in ALL CASES W
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The best answer for the question: What is the denotation of the word "bound" in this excerpt, would be, A: trapped.

Explanation:

Trapped is defined as being held, or captured, restrained or entrapped by something or someone. Essentially, it means that a person´s, or something, freedom, is limited due to something tying it, or them, down. When the speaker in this excerpt says that "Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but "to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER", he is making allusion to the fact that binding, or being bound, is like talking about being limited, withheld from their right to be free and to choose their own fates and the way they are governed. Because he uses the word "bound" as a form to talk about limitations, and being held back, especially from freedom, and then makes allusion to this being equal to slavery, then the best option to choose from to answer the question would be A: trapped, which essentially presents the same idea as "bound" would.
