Read the excerpt from "Politics and the English Language" by George Orwell. I think the following rules will cover most cases: (

i) Never use a metaphor, simile or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print. (ii) Never use a long word where a short one will do. (iii) If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out. (iv) Never use the passive where you can use the active. (v) Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent. (vi) Break any of these rules sooner than say anything barbarous. Which best describes George Orwell’s purpose and the way he achieves it in this excerpt? Orwell’s purpose is to inform readers about political situations. He achieves this by providing a list of specific rules for writing simply. Orwell’s purpose is to inform readers about political situations. He achieves this by showing an example of poorly written language. Orwell’s purpose is to persuade readers to use simple language in political writing.

Write a short, persuasive paragraph of at least one hundred words with the purpose of convincing your teacher not to assign any
prisoha [69]
I believe we should not be given any homework today.  Our class works hard and we do a lot of homework.  My parents might be fed up with the lack of time they get to spend with me. Do you really want an angry letter and a bad rating? My parents want me to enjoy life and be a kid.  Also, if we didn't have homework tonight, I could get together and reconnect with friends i have not seen for a long time.  Isn't friendship and joy more important than homework? So, as I hope you can see, homework is not a priority compared to simple joys of life like family and friendships. I hope you will not assign any homework tonight. :)
