Not the answer but I have Mr. Powers too
Assignment 1: Compare the clip from ants vs. Grasshoppers, It's a Bugs Life to the discussion of the Proles by Winston in Chapter 7 of 1984. Write 2 paragraphs relating the similarity of the messages between these two samples of literature. Make sure you breakdown the elements of the argument that "Chopper" gives, and that Winston gives. Use specific quotes from each selection and address: 1. How do the ants have the raw power to overthrow the grasshoppers?
2. How do the Proles have the power to overthrow Big Brother? For both selections, discuss why or why not will this happen?
Do you have what you put down?
The correct answer is b.
Hardly, as an adverb means "just", hardly, in this context is acting as a limiting modifier of the word ever. <em>Hardly ever</em> means very occasionally. We may use words like it to emphasize how infrequently an action takes place. You should note also that there could be other ways to give quite the same meaning, like when you use <em>rarely</em> or <em>seldom</em>, but, hardly ever has also a <u>negative</u> connotation.
What is the question/instructions?
1, because it is supported throughout the whole paragraph.
