Read the excerpt from chapter 10 of Animal Farm.

He did not believe, he said, that any of the old suspicions still lingered, but certain changes had been made recently in the routine of the farm which should have the effect of promoting confidence still further. Hitherto the animals on the farm had had a rather foolish custom of addressing one another as "Comrade." This was to be suppressed. There had also been a very strange custom, whose origin was unknown, of marching every Sunday morning past a boar's skull which was nailed to a post in the garden. This, too, would be suppressed, and the skull had already been buried. His visitors might have observed, too, the green flag which flew from the masthead. If so, they would perhaps have noted that the white hoof and horn with which it had previously been marked had now been removed. It would be a plain green flag from now onwards.

Which statement best describes how the passage illustrates a satirical reversal?

It shows how the original principles of Animal Farm have adapted naturally with the times.
It shows how the animals have decided together that their rebellion was misguided.
It shows how angry the animals have become with the way the farm is organized.
It shows how the original principles and rituals of Animal Farm have been completely suppressed.

Answer:

It shows how the original principles and rituals of Animal Farm have been completely suppressed.

Explanation:

It shows how the original principles of Animal Farm have adapted naturally with the times. - is not the right answer. We do not see the natural adaptation of principles in this passage.

It shows how the animals have decided together that their rebellion was misguided. - this is not the correct answer. There is no mention of a rebellion in the passage.

It shows how angry the animals have become with the way the farm is organized. - is not the correct answer. The passage does not refer to the anger of the animals.

It shows how the original principles and rituals of Animal Farm have been completely suppressed. - this is the correct answer. In the quotation, we see suppression of the customs of referring to each other as “Comrade” and marching by the boar’s skull. The section also mentions the flag will be changed - the one with hoof and horn will be replaced with the plain green one. With all of this, we can conclude that the passage talks about suppressions of the farm principles which is a satirical reversal – subverting the situation to the one opposite of normalcy as the reader sees it so the satire would be obvious.

Read this excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin.

In the next few years following the publication of his book, Champollion deciphered many more hieroglyphs.

With the backing of the French government, he journeyed to Egypt to see the ancient hieroglyphic inscriptions for himself.

What inference can readers make based on the details in the excerpt?

Only the French recognized Champollion for his accomplishments in deciphering hieroglyphics.
The French government considered Champollion’s work to be a significant achievement.
Champollion published a book just so he could take a free trip to Egypt.
Champollion had to see the hieroglyphics in person to be able to write about them.
