Answer:
"Shooting an Elephant" by George Orwell
The Europeans are presented as unnecessary despots, who foolishly portray themselves as lords, by imposing their rule over others, nothing realizing that they are becoming a laughing stock of the ruled. Imperialists all over history think that they are in control not knowing that they have lost their will power to the people, whom they think they dominate. Like masked people, who have grown to resemble the masks they wear with ingrained habits and prejudices, Europeans must dance to the music that only the crowds know how best to play.
Explanation:
George Orwell's 1936 short story titled: "Shooting an Elephant" describes his experiences as a Burmese colonial police officer, torn in-between loyalty to his official duty and the dictates of his conscience. According to George Orwell, imperialism and colonialism attract the wicked man's reward: lack of appreciation.

Read the poem “If We Must Die” by Claude McKay.
If we must die—let it not be like hogs
Hunted and penned in an inglorious spot,
While round us bark the mad and hungry dogs,
Making their mock at our accursed lot.
If we must die—oh, let us nobly die
So that our precious blood may not be shed
In vain; then even the monsters we defy
Shall be constrained to honor us though dead!
Oh, Kinsmen! We must meet the common foe;
Though far outnumbered, let us still be brave,
And for their thousand blows deal one death-blow!
What though before us lies the open grave?
Like men we’ll face the murderous, cowardly pack,
Pressed to the wall, dying, but—fighting back!
What sentence best conveys the speaker’s message?
Nature is more powerful than man.
Victory is unlikely when one is outnumbered.
There is honor in dying courageously.
Nonviolence is the only way to prevent bloodshed.
Answer:
There is honor in dying courageously.
Explanation:
For the speaker, it is very important to maintain the honor, he is willing to die, but not before a proper fight. He won't die in vain, he wants to gain honor from others in order to win their respect. He wants to make of his death, an important and significant one.
Answer:
There is honor in dying courageously.

Please help!! Identify the sentence with useless words or phrases.A.She has to work to support her family, even though it meant she had to drop out of school.B.She dropped out of school on account of the reality that it was crucial for her to help sustain her family.C.Dropping out of school is all too common, especially for those who must support their families.D.None of the above are examples of sentences with useless words or phrases.
The correct answer is B. She dropped out of school on account of the reality that it was crucial for her to help sustain her family.
Explanation:
In sentences, using words or phrases that are not necessary for the meaning of the sentence should be avoided as this makes sentences to be confusing or unclear. Also, these sentences can be identified because certain phrases or words can be omitted without changing the meaning.
Useless words or phrases occur in "She dropped out of school on account of the reality that it was crucial for her to help sustain her family" because the section "on account of the reality that it was crucial" contains many useless words that make the sentence confusing. Instead, it can be summarized with "because it was crucial" or simply omitted as "She dropped out of school to help sustain her family".
Compare and contrast ancient tales "the brave little parrot " and " if not higher".Explain specific moral,spritual and ethical aspects of human life both these ancient tales emphasize on?
Answer:
"The brave little parrot" represents Buddha in an animal form. Behind its nature is the foundation of love. Inspired to solve immediate problems in its environment, it fruitlessly tried to extinguish the fire burning a whole forest by dripping water from the ocean. It did not wait for the super savers, but acted with its little resources to eventually drive the big God to tears, which came down as a rainfall to quench the fire and joyfully restored the environment for the sake of the desperate animals inhabiting it.
On the other hand, "if not higher" depicts the sudden disappearance of the Rabbi during the Penitential service. The Rabbi did not disappear into heaven during the service but went to the wood to cut firewood for some sick woman who needed the warmth from a fireside. Truly, the Rabbi ascended into the highest heavens, by allowing himself to be driven by love. God will answer his prayers readily because he is practical and knows what it means to answer the prayers of needy people.
The moral, spiritual, and ethical teachings in these ancient tales are comparable, with the contrast existing only in the personalities involved in the tales. Buddha is supposed to a God, but he came in the nature of a parrot. The Rabbi is a minister of God, who directs the people's prayers to God, but he tries his best to solve people's problems, at least in the name and for the sake of God.
Everyone needs to make a difference in our world with our little resources. When we try, who knows, God will come to our aid to solve the big problems which we cannot handle.
We can turn our long prayers to little kindness and love here and thereafter. They are more powerful and move God because He dwells in love.
Explanation:
"The brave little parrot" was written by Martin Rafe, 1998. Its teaching will help children to understand the important of sharing love.
Like the "if not higher" short story by I.L. Peretz which depicted the disappearance of the Rabbi during the Penitential service, as an ascent into heaven, these tales have rich moral, spiritual, and ethical lessons for everyone interested in living a "good samaritan" life.
