In "Shooting an Elephant", by George Orwell, the sub-inspector at a police station calls the narrator to tell him that an elephant was ravaging the bazaar and if he could do something about it. The narrator, as a British officer in Burma, takes his rifle with him,  because <em>he thinks the noise might scare off the elephant</em>. He has the intention of frightening the elephant but not shooting it.

Which lines from "Mending Wall" best indicate that the speaker is amused while repairing the wall?
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

We have to use a spell to make them balance:

"Stay where you are until our backs are turned!"

Explanation:

The lines selected above show the part of the poem where the speaker shows that he is having fun repairing the wall. We can see this because these are the only lines that present a tone of relaxation and joviality, which contrasts with the more serious tone presented in the previous lines. With this, we can see that the speaker sees this moment as a distraction and a novelty, which can be enjoyed and fun.

Answer:

In this passage, Willis is expressing that literature is a message from the past telling us about the lives of those before us. We are told that these messages are trying to tell us how we live and how we die based on others experiences. Willis tries to explain this through a concerned, yet passionate tone that urges us, the readers, to learn from the mistakes and the fortunes of the lives of people before us. We can only do this through literature, as it is the gateway to seeing how the world works.
