I said earlier that the decadence of our language is probably curable. Those who deny this would argue, if they produced an argu

ment at all, that language merely reflects existing social conditions, and that we cannot influence its development by any direct tinkering with words and constructions. So far as the general tone or spirit of a language goes, this may be true, but it is not true in detail. Silly words and expressions have often disappeared, not through any evolutionary process but owing to the conscious action of a minority. Two recent examples were explore every avenue and leave no stone unturned, which were killed by the jeers of a few journalists. –"Politics and the English Language," George Orwell In this passage, how does Orwell support his rebuttal of a counterclaim? by providing examples of how journalists have failed to change the English language by describing hypothetical situations in which English might be changed in the future by giving specific examples of how people have made small changes to English by using quotations from journalists with expertise in the study of languages.

I'm Hard Times, Charles Dickens's purpose in including Sissy in the selection is to show that
Vladimir [108]
<span>There is some parallel between Sissy’s story and Dickens’ own. When he was 12 years old, Dickens was sent to work at Warren’s Blacking Factory (Coketown, come on) after his father was imprisoned for debt. Claire Tomalin asserts in her superb recent biography about Dickens that, when he was rescued by his parents neither he nor they uttered a single word about it to one another. So I suspect that Dickens was strongly attached to Sissy in a very personal way. And for me, a world without Sissy Jupe would be a world without Dickens.</span>
