Answer:

Definition

Explanation:

You know it's a definition because it provides the meaning of the word inside commas directly after the word. It's not a synonym nor an antonym because it's not one word, and it's not an inference because you're not making an educated guess about the word based on the rest of the sentence. The sentence is <em>directly</em> telling you what the unknown word means, so it must be a definition.

Answer: A 2014 Supreme Court decision regarding newspaper censorship

S_A_V [24]

This question is missing the options. I've found them online:

How does Orwell use satire in this passage?

a) to present the opposite of the normal order of things

b) to mimic the situation directly to produce a comical effect

c) to expose and condemn the corruption and character flaws of the pigs

d) to exaggerate Mr. Pilkington’s kindness toward the animals on the farm

Answer:

Orwell uses satire in this passage to:

c) to expose and condemn the corruption and character flaws of the pigs

Explanation:

"Animal Farm" is an allegorical novella by George Orwell. It was written as a criticism of the Soviet regime to which Russia was subjected by Stalin. Orwell himself was a democratic-socialist.

The excerpt we are analyzing here was taken from the final chapter of the book. It portrays a meeting between the pigs from Animal Farm and Mr. Pilkington. <u>The animals from the farm tried to establish a fair and equal society after expelling their human owner. However, after becoming the leaders of the new society, the pigs realized their position gave them advantages. Soon, they became more and more similar to humans. They began to exploit the other animals, creating a clear distinction between themselves and the others. They also began to trade with the very humans they once despised. In this excerpt, Pilkington is complimenting the pigs on the way they treat the animals that are below them in social hierarchy. The fact that a corrupt human is complimenting the pigs serves to expose the pigs' corruption and character flaws.</u>
