Which conflicts occur in this passage? Select three
saul85 [17]

Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.”

How can I tell what it was like—you do not know. It was there, in the red light, and they were too big to be houses. It was there with the red light upon it, mighty and ruined. I knew that in another moment the gods would see me. I covered my eyes with my hands and crept back into the forest.

Surely, that was enough to do, and live. Surely it was enough to spend the night upon the cliff. The Forest People themselves do not come near. Yet, all through the night, I knew that I should have to cross the river and walk in the places of the gods, although the gods ate me up. My magic did not help me at all and yet there was a fire in my bowels, a fire in my mind. When the sun rose, I thought, "My journey has been clean. Now I will go home from my journey." But, even as I thought so, I knew I could not. If I went to the Place of the Gods, I would surely die, but, if I did not go, I could never be at peace with my spirit again. It is better to lose one's life than one's spirit, if one is a priest and the son of a priest.

Which conflicts occur in this passage? Select three options.

1) Character vs. nature: The narrator must conquer the challenges of the landscape to visit the Place of the Gods.

2) Character vs. character: The narrator must face the Forest People, since they live directly on the route to the Place of the Gods.

3) Character vs. self: The narrator must convince himself that just seeing the Place of the Gods from a distance is not enough.

4) Character vs. society: The narrator must go to the Place of the Gods to satisfy his spirit because he is a priest’s son and must follow his father’s teachings.

5) Character vs. self: The narrator is overwhelmed with fear of what he sees coming from the Place of the Gods and momentarily retreats.

Answer:

The conflicts that occur in the passage are

1) Character vs. self

2) Character vs. society

3) Character vs. self

Explanation:

There are three conflicts that occur in the passage:

1) Character vs. self: The narrator must try and make himself go to the Place of the Gods so he can be at peace with himself because viewing or seeing it froom afar is not enough for him.

2) Character vs. society: Another conflict that the narrator has it that he must visit the Place of the Gods because <u>"if one is a priest and the son of a priest. "</u> which shows that his father was a priest and he must follow his father's teachings.

3) Character vs. self: He is also scared for himself as he said <u>"If I went to the Place of the Gods, I would surely die..."</u> He wants to visit the Place of the Gods but he is scared for his life.

Write an essay of at least 200 words that explains the significance of Orwell's choice of a farm as the setting of his story.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

When Orwell saw a kid whipping a horse, he had an idea: "It struck me that if only such animals became aware of their strength we should have no power over them, and that men exploit animals in much the same way as the rich exploit the proletariat."

Hello, Animal Farm.

On Orwell's Animal Farm-originally Manor Farm-different animals represent different members of the proletariat (working class) or the Russian communist regime. We won't take you through all the details here (see "Symbols, Imagery, Allegory" and the "Character Analyses" for the full lowdown), but the point is that Orwell picked the setting of the farm because it would work well as an allegory.

At the same time, Orwell includes little details like, "the birds jumped on to their perches, the animals settled down in the straw, and the whole farm was asleep in a moment" (1.20). There's no allegorical purpose to these images; they just give the setting a sense of completeness (although may not exactly realism).

But why an English farm rather than, say, a Russian farm? Well, Orwell wasn't just criticizing Stalin. He was also criticizing the myth of Stalinism that intellectuals all over the West believed. By setting it in England, he brought it that much closer to home
