is a narrative essay about Orwell's time as a police officer for the British Raj in colonial Burma. The essay delves into an inner conflict that Orwell experiences in his role of representing the British Empire and upholding the law. At the opening of the essay Orwell explains that he is opposed to the British colonial project in Burma. In explicit terms he says that he's on the side of the Burmese people,who he feels are oppressed by colonial rule. As a police officer he sees the brutalities of the imperial project up close and first hand. He resents the British presence in the country.
Answer:
"Shooting an Elephant"
Explanation:
George Orwell wrote his "Shooting an Elephant and Other Essays" in a narrative form. The essay was about the unjust shooting of an elephant, that too, not a wild one but a tame elephant.
The essay may also be metaphorically taken as the two identities of British imperialism. While the elephant represents the colonies, the victims of its imperialist actions, the executioner of the elephant represents the British authority, power, the imperial country/ kingdom. The narrative essay is Orwell's way of presenting the conflict between the two sides of imperialism, the conflict that he also faced as a police officer under the British but empathize with the colonies.
Thus, the correct answer is "Shooting an Elephant".

Which CVC word with a short "e" sound
a.bag
b.rug
c.log
d.jet
Answer:
D. Jet
Explanation:
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
D. Jet
Explanation:
A short "e" makes a sound similar to that of "eh." Think of the e in the word "forget." It sounds like "forg-eh-t." Now that we know what this sounds like, we can deduce that D is the correct answer because "jet" is pronounced like "j-eh-t." Hope this helps!

Read the excerpt from “The Monkey's Paw.”
Mr. White took the paw from his pocket and eyed it dubiously. "I don't know what to wish for, and that's a fact," he said, slowly. "It seems to me I've got all I want."
"If you only cleared the house, you'd be quite happy, wouldn't you?" said Herbert, with his hand on his shoulder. "Well, wish for two hundred pounds, then; that'll just do it."
His father, smiling shamefacedly at his own credulity, held up the talisman, as his son, with a solemn face, somewhat marred by a wink at his mother, sat down at the piano and struck a few impressive chords.
"I wish for two hundred pounds," said the old man distinctly.
A fine crash from the piano greeted the words, interrupted by a shuddering cry from the old man. His wife and son ran toward him.
Which phrase indicates a change in mood within the excerpt?
“struck a few impressive chords”
“smiling shamefacedly at his own credulity”
“a fine crash from the piano”
“interrupted by a shuddering cry”
Answer:
interrupted by a shuddering cry

Write three points about why driverless cars are a bad idea.
one obstacle is driverless cars can mistake harmless puddles of water as pot holes and slow down for no reason.
there's also going to be skeptical people. considering that driverless tech has the greatest chance of reducing accidents when it’s on the road with other driverless tech, perhaps the biggest obstacle to the goal of accident prevention will be the stubborn relative or neighbor who “just doesn’t trust those things.”
also, there might be someone not paying attention in their driverless car, and the technology might not be all there. what i mean by this is they detect little animals and swerve really fast and hit another car. even though people are working on this to try and stop car accidents from happening, it could lead the the exact opposite.

what would be a metaphor and a simile for The old man stumbled
Answer:
The main difference between a simile and metaphor is that a simile uses the words "like" or "as" to draw a comparison and a metaphor simply states the comparison without using "like" or "as". An example of a simile is: She is as innocent as an angel. An example of a metaphor is: She is an angel.
Explanation:
hope makatulong
Answer:
"The old man stumbled like a broken record, his grin a grainy tune"
Explanation:
A Simile, by dictionary definition, is a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing, whereas a Metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. For example:
"Her heart is like gold"
"Her heart is gold"
Here, the former is a simile, and the latter is a metaphor. In the first one, we are comparing the girl's heart to gold, and in the second, we state that her heart is gold.
Taking the original sentence: "The old man stumbled".
And then my answer sentence: "The old man stumbled like a broken record, his gravely grin a grainy tune".
Here, the words "...stumbled like a broken record" is the token simile. We can see this with the key words "like and as"
The metaphor in the sentence is the way I described his smile. Comparing it to an object or thing that can't literally make sense—the grainy tunes of an old record player.

Can someone give me a example of a compare and contrast, please be specific
Answer:
Can a hero and a villain ever be alike? Strangely, it would seem like the answer to that question would be no. However, when it comes to Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter, the two are more alike than you realize. Comparing and contrasting these two unique characters based on their destinies, families, and friends can show you how Harry and Draco have more in common than one might think.
You can’t control your fate. The truth of these words for Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy drive the paths of their lives. However, how each different boy’s fate unfolds is what makes one considered the hero and the other a villain. Harry Potter is destined to be the “Chosen One”. He did not choose this destiny, but it was thrown on him as a child because of how events unfolded for his family. On the other hand, Draco Malfoy has family expectations of siding with and supporting the death eaters because of his father’s affiliation. Failure to follow Voldemort could lead to not only his death but that of his family.

The Past Continuous is used to talk about actions that happened for a period of time in the past, that is, actions that started and lasted for a while. The examples below help illustrate that:
- I was cooking pasta when my mother arrived.
- Nina wasn't answering her phone, so I called her sister.
