After reading the excerpt from "Animal Farm" in which the commandment is changed, we can say we have an example of the following type of satire:
A. Reversal, because the commandment has changed in meaning.
What is reversal?The type of satire known as reversal happens when the author changes a situation, inverting the way things would normally be, usually with the purpose of making it absurd.How is this excerpt an example of reversal?Originally, the commandment created by the animals living in Animal Farm was that all animals are equal. That was their aim - to create a society where animals were equal, treated fairly, and able to live freely and happily.However, with the new commandment, the situation has changed drastically. The pigs, who are the rulers of the farm, are now behaving like humans. They see themselves as superior to the other animals, and the commandment makes that clear.The situation has been so completely reversed that the animals are back to square one, as if they were still subjugated to humans, rather than ruling themselves.With the information above in mind, we can choose letter A as the best option.

It goes beyond stories that are 'based on' or 'inspired by' events - narrative non-fiction texts aim to accurately represent what happened through the lens of a story.

differ? Use evidence from the poem in your answer.
The views of Booker T. and W.E.B. on civil rights differ from how blacks should pursue these rights.
We can arrive at this answer because:
W.E.B believed that civil rights alone would be achieved through the direct claim of these rights.He argued that for this to happen, blacks should strive to receive a formal education, which would allow them to understand their political and social roles, become intellectual, ready to debate white society and claim their political and civil rights.Booker T. rebuked such thinking and did not believe it would do black people any good, but it would promote more racism.Booker T. stated that blacks should maintain their inferior roles in relation to whites, not face them and not seek to claim rights.For him, blacks should strive to have economic independence and take care of each other.He claimed that economic independence and material growth would allow civil rights to come naturally and keep blacks safe.You have not shown the text this question refers to, but I hope this information can help you.

How does the anecdote, brief story, in paragraph four contribute to the authors explanation of Julius Ceaser life and character
Answer:
According to Shakespeare as the author of this play, He portrays Caesar as an ambitious and loyal man. He is a prisoner of his principles and always fixed to the laws of public institutions. He was charged by his conspirators as someone whose judgment is delusional because he looks for absolute power over Rome which was not true. His faith in his principles and obedience to the law did not allow him to quit going to the Senate. He does not pay heed to his wife's dream because he was a man of his words.
Explanation:
Caesar's aura and public image was immortal to him and he always has a deep faith on his capabilities. The ideas of Caesar which were conflicting to Rome powerful elite made sense by the end of the play in Act V when Brutus finally accepted that Caeser's power is beyond his grave and producing misfortune for them.
Answer:
Julius Caesar, the Roman dictator, was assassinated by a group of senators on the Ides of March (15 March) of 44 BC during a meeting of the Senate at the Curia of Pompey of the Theatre of Pompey in Rome. The senators stabbed Caesar 23 times. The senators claimed to be acting over fears that Caesar's unprecedented concentration of power during his dictatorship was undermining the Roman Republic, and presented the deed as an act of tyrannicide. At least 60 senators were party to the conspiracy, led by Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius Longinus. Despite the death of Caesar, the conspirators were unable to restore the institutions of the Republic. The ramifications of the assassination led to the Liberators' civil war and ultimately to the Principate period of the Roman Empire.
\Caesar had served the Republic for eight years in the Gallic Wars, fully conquering the region of Gaul (roughly equivalent to modern-day France). After the Roman Senate demanded Caesar to disband his army and return home as a civilian, he refused, crossing the Rubicon with his army and plunging Rome into Caesar's Civil War in 49 BC. After defeating the last of the opposition, Caesar was appointed dictator perpetuo ("dictator in perpetuity") in early 44 BC.[2] Roman historian Titus Livius describes three incidents that occurred from 45 to 44 BC as the final causes of Caesar's assassination – the "three last straws" as far as some Romans were concerned.[3]
The first incident took place in December 45 BC or possibly early 44 BC.[3] According to Roman historian Cassius Dio, after the Senate had voted to bestow a large group of honours upon Caesar, they decided to present them to him formally, and marched as a senatorial delegation to the Temple of Venus Genetrix.[4] When they arrived, etiquette called for Caesar to stand up to greet the senators, but he did not rise. He also joked about their news, saying that his honours needed to be cut back instead of increased.[5] Roman historian Suetonius wrote (almost 150 years later) that Caesar failed to rise in the temple, either because he was restrained by the consul Lucius Cornelius Balbus or that he balked at the suggestion he should rise.[6] Regardless of the reasoning, by practically rejecting a senatorial gift and not acknowledging the delegation's presence with proper etiquette, Caesar gave the strong impression that he no longer cared about the Senate.[5]
The second incident occurred in 44 BC. One day in January, the tribunes Gaius Epidius Marullus and Lucius Caesetius Flavus discovered a diadem on the head of the statue of Caesar on the Rostra in the Roman Forum.[5] According to Suetonius, the tribunes ordered that the wreath be removed as it was a symbol of Jupiter and royalty.[7] Nobody knew who had placed the diadem, but Caesar suspected that the tribunes had arranged for it to appear so that they could have the honour of removing it.[5] Matters escalated shortly after on the 26th, when Caesar was riding on horseback to Rome on the Appian Way.[8] A few members of the crowd greeted him as rex ("king"), to which Caesar replied, "I am not Rex, but Caesar" ("Non sum Rex, sed Caesar").[9] This was wordplay; "Rex" was a family name as well as a Latin title. Marullus and Flavus, the aforementioned tribunes, were not amused, and ordered the man who first cried "Rex" arrested. In a later senate meeting, Caesar accused the tribunes of attempting to create opposition to him, and had them removed from office and membership in the Senate.[8] The Roman plebs took their tribunes seriously as the representatives of the common people; Caesar's actions against the tribunes put him on the wrong side of public opinion.[10]
The third incident took place at the festival of the Lupercalia, on the 15 February 44 BC. Mark Antony, who had been elected co-consul with Caesar, climbed onto the Rostra and placed a diadem on Caesar's head, saying "The People give this to you through me." While a few members of the crowd applauded, most responded with silence. Caesar removed the diadem from his head; Antony again placed it on him, only to get the same response from the crowd.[11] Finally, Caesar put it aside to use as a sacrifice to Jupiter Optimus Maximus.[7] "Jupiter alone of the Romans is king," Caesar said, which received an enthusiastic response from the crowd.[11] At the time, many believed that Caesar's rejection of the diadem was a way for him to see if there was enough support for him to become king, and despised him for it.[12]
According to Suetonius, Caesar's assassination ultimately occurred primarily due to concerns that he wished to crown himself the king of Rome.[13] These concerns were exacerbated by the "three last straws" of 45 and 44 BC. In just a few months, Caesar had disrespected the Senate, removed People's Tribunes, and toyed with monarchy. By February, the conspiracy that caused his assassination was being born.[12]

Some feedback on below please:
I sit on the edge of a massive, crystal tower. Flakes of snow fall silently around me- some gently scattered by a wisp of curling air. It feels as though I stand at the very top of the world, yet I know this is only a moment, a moment which could last for as long as it wants, for as long as I breathe life into it.
I yearn to preserve this beauty, though. I want to explore this new world. So, I look to the left and then to the right. The snow falls as I look, covering everything in a shimmering layer of pure white. I then look down, and I see brilliant lights shining up at me. Their light is angelic and completely mesmerizing.
I need to get closer. Without a second of doubt, I unfurl my wings, and they spread wide— white and bright and strong. I can see their faint luminescence on the crystal below.
I step off my ledge and glide silently down like the snowflakes beside me. The lights grow brighter and brighter the closer I go, but instead of a glare, they give off a warm, engulfing glow that makes me feel full of happiness.
I come to a stop on a ledge of gold and look with two big, wide eyes at the sea of light below.
They were snowflakes. As they hit the calm, icy waters, they froze for a moment and then turned into a burst of light.
The sight was unexplainably beautiful. Each flake held its own radiance. Some shone white, and others yellow, some were bigger, and some were smaller. None were alike, but they were all needed to create the scene.
Overwhelmed, I closed my eyes, yet a brightness inside me had already begun to blossom. It wrapped around me like a blanket, urging me into the sea. But, I snapped my eyes open, awake and present, and uttered a single word.
No.
How could I? I didn't belong there. I was not a flake, and I never will be. I didn't come from the sky either.
It's all just a fantasy in my mind.
It isn't my world. My brain has just defocused in an attempt to allow my dreaming brain through. Yet what I need is the opposite- a chance to regain my senses and have enough space to focus on what matters.
Personally, I think that is absolutely amazing. I love all the details and techniques you used!

He states: "That was what he hated about being alone in the thing—the fear of being trapped in there for hours by himself." He can't decide between the stairs and the elevator because of the overweight woman. The elevator portrays the big woman, while the stairs reflect his father's frailty.

The word “fat” often carries a negative connotation. Write a story or observation where something fat is celebrated.
at least 125 words
Answer:
Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to an extent that it may have a negative effect on health.[1][8] People are generally considered obese when their body mass index (BMI), a measurement obtained by dividing a person's weight by the square of the person's height—despite known allometric inaccuracies[a]—is over 30 kg/m2; the range 25–30 kg/m2 is defined as overweight.[1] Some East Asian countries use lower values.[11]
Obesity is correlated with various diseases and conditions, particularly cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, certain types of cancer, and osteoarthritis.[2][8] High BMI is a marker of risk, but not proven to be a direct cause, for diseases caused by diet, physical activity, and environmental factors.[12] A reciprocal link has been found between obesity and depression, with obesity increasing the risk of clinical depression and also depression leading to a higher chance of developing obesity.[3]
Obesity has individual, socioeconomic, and environmental causes, including diet, physical activity, automation, urbanization, genetic susceptibility, medications, mental disorders, economic policies, endocrine disorders, and exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals.[1][4][13][14] Epidemiologic studies of overweight and obesity in children and adults covering 195 countries have shown that the prevalence of obesity has steadily increased in most countries, doubling in 73 countries over the 25 years from 1980 to 2015. As of 2015, the United States and China had the largest numbers of obese adults, and China and India had the largest numbers of obese children.[15] By 2018, 42% of Americans were obese.[16]
While a majority of obese individuals at any given time are attempting to lose weight and are often successful, research shows that maintaining that weight loss over the long term proves to be rare.[17] The reasons for weight cycling are not fully understood but may include decreased energy expenditure combined with increased biological urge to eat during and after caloric restriction.[17] More studies are needed to determine if weight cycling and yo-yo dieting contribute to inflammation and disease risk in obese individuals.[17]
Obesity prevention requires a complex approach, including interventions at community, family, and individual levels.[1][12] Changes to diet and exercising are the main treatments recommended by health professionals.[2] Diet quality can be improved by reducing the consumption of energy-dense foods, such as those high in fat or sugars, and by increasing the intake of dietary fiber.[1] However, large-scale analyses have found an inverse relationship between energy density and energy cost of foods in developed nations.[18] Low-income populations are more likely to live in neighborhoods that are considered "food deserts" or "food swamps" where nutritional groceries are less available.[19] Medications can be used, along with a suitable diet, to reduce appetite or decrease fat absorption.[5] If diet, exercise, and medication are not effective, a gastric balloon or surgery may be performed to reduce stomach volume or length of the intestines, leading to feeling full earlier or a reduced ability to absorb nutrients from food.[6][20]
Obesity is a leading preventable cause of death worldwide, with increasing rates in adults and children.[1][21] In 2015, 600 million adults (12%) and 100 million children were obese in 195 countries.[7] Obesity is more common in women than in men.[1] Authorities view it as one of the most serious public health problems of the 21st century.[22] Obesity is stigmatized in much of the modern world (particularly in the Western world), though it was seen as a symbol of wealth and fertility at other times in history and still is in some parts of the world.[2][23] In 2013, several medical societies, including the American Medical Association and the American Heart Association, classified obesity as a disease.[24][25][26]

At first, Fortuanto is hesitant to follow Montresor into the vaults. Why do you think Poe included this detail?
Answer:
Fortunato is hesitant to follow Montresor into the vaults. Why do you think Poe included this detail? Fortunato follows Montresor down a long, winding staircase to the Montresor family catacombs. Fortunato then hesitates for a few minutes before entering into the vaults because the niter on the walls gives him a coughing fit.
Explanation:
The correct resposne is - Fortunato is apprehensive to enter the vaults after Montresor. What justifies Poe's inclusion of this information? Fortunato adheres to Montresor as he descends a steep, serpentine stairway to the family catacombs. The nighttime lighting on the walls causes Fortunato to cough, so he waits a few minutes before going into the vaults.
Who was Montresor?Our narrator, Montresor (assuming that's his true name), is Mr. Sinister. You don't want to run across him anyplace, not even in a subterranean cemetery. He is a cold-blooded, merciless murderer. In addition, to their like to murder, he also considers it vital.
He is narrating the tale fifty years after the event took place. This brings up a plethora of challenging issues. The major ones will be discussed under "Bragging of Confessing" but let's first look at some other facets of his personality.
Montresor is "a typical example of an unreliable narrator," according to any reviewer. And it's probably true that we shouldn't trust him if he can plaster Fortunato into a vault. We still can't believe him if he's lying and Fortunato wasn't killed by him.
