Draw an inference from the text to support the idea that the pigs don't believe all animals are equal.

Answers

Answer:

In Animal Farm, by George Orwell, the pigs, the leaders who have led the rebellion against the human owners of the Farm, impose several rules on all the other animals, and tasks, which they are never going to follow themselves, even though they convince all other animals that they are all equal. These are essentially also the sore points that begin to make the other animals realize what a big lie they have been fed by the pigs.

Explanation:

Animal Farm is the novel that was written by George Orwell and which was published originally in 1917. It draws, through the use of the analogy of the rebellion of the animals against their human owners in a farm, the picture of what the Russian Revolution was and what the ideals of Communism really became to amount to: rules imposed on all, but which were never followed by Communits Party leaders.

3)Vainly: unsuccessfully

4)Implore: Supplicate

5)Radiant: Brilliant

2) That December is desolate, as the speaker recalls as he talks about the moment this happened.

3) Unsuccessfully tried to calm his grief over Lenore's death.

A Puppy Goes Tubing Sammy Thompson Although our puppy, Sadie, is only one year old, she is very adventurous. Earlier this summer, we had thought she would be too scared to get on the boat, but the very first time we lowered it, she popped in without hesitating a second. We were surprised to learn that she loved the boat. Sadie likes to go to the very front of the boat and let the wind blow through her long brown ears. This afternoon, though, Sadie proved once again that she has a heart for new experiences.

In your experience, how important is it to listen to other people’s wisdom before you make you own decision? Does listening to others help us make better choices, or does it keep us from taking risks? The Monkeys Paws

Answers

Answer:sometimes yes it is bc it could keep us away from doing something wrong. but most times or sometimes its a bad choice. and for the second question tbh its both bc like i said it can be a good choice, or ppl want us to do something else instead of doing the good choice

Explanation:

Wisdom refers to the level of understanding that an individual reaches in which the individual can decide between the best of the given options to be opted that will make the best output out of it. It is important to listen to others but following everything with closed eyes should not be followed.

Listening and accepting suggestions from others is also very essential before taking any of the important decisions. Blindly following the paths decided by the people should not be followed. Rather a critical analysis to the suggestions needs to be done. This helps the individual to opt the best path from the given choices.

In the story "The Monkey's Paw", the topic of listening and understanding other's and then equalizing it with the self has been highlighted. The parents were completely convinced about the wishes and hence, without listening to its boundaries they jumped into making the use of the paw. Also, after the death of their son, they went forward to make an another wish of return of their son. The parents here relied on other's thought and took the step of making the wishes from the paw. Hence, it can be concluded that its not every time that other's suggestions and decisions prove right and correct.
