Read the passage from chapter 7 of Animal Farm.
As Clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with tears. If she could have spoken her thoughts, it would have been to say that this was not what they had aimed at when they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race. These scenes of terror and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on that night when old Major first stirred them to rebellion. If she herself had had any picture of the future, it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of Major's speech. Instead—she did not know why—they had come to a time when no one dared speak his mind, when fierce, growling dogs roamed everywhere, and when you had to watch your comrades torn to pieces after confessing to shocking crimes. There was no thought of rebellion or disobedience in her mind. She knew that, even as things were, they were far better off than they had been in the days of Jones, and that before all else it was needful to prevent the return of the human beings. Whatever happened she would remain faithful, work hard, carry out the orders that were given to her, and accept the leadership of Napoleon. But still, it was not for this that she and all the other animals had hoped and toiled. It was not for this that they had built the windmill and faced the bullets of Jones's gun. Such were her thoughts, though she lacked the words to express them.
Which statement best describes the use of satire in this passage?
Parody is used to illustrate the impact of Stalin’s purge.
Ridicule is used to show the gullibility of the Russian citizens.
Personification is used to show the reader Stalin’s thoughts and feelings.
Answer:
Ridicule is used to show the gullibility of the Russian citizens.
Explanation:
It is not "personification is used to show the reader Stalin's thoughts and feelings" because the thoughts are Clover's, who, in this allegory does not represent Stalin.
It is not "parody is used to illustrate the impact of Stalin's purge, because the question asks for the use of "satire". The definition of satire is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's [lack of intelligence] or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. Thus, even though Animal Farm is an allegory to the Russian situation and this paragraph refers to Stalin's purge, satire is not used to support this allegory (or, not by parody at least).
Excellent. Thus it must be "ridicule is used to show the gullibility of the Russian citizens". This is the correct answer. Recall the definition of satire: it includes the words "ridicule" and "criticize people's [lack of intelligence]". This fits perfectly with the author using ridicule to show the gullibility, or one representation of a lack of intelligence, with the Russian citizens.

QUESTION 2 You must answer this question. Write your answer in 125-150 words in an appropriate style. Your class has been discussing various sports. Your class teacher asked you to write an essay why sports and games are important in a student's life. In your essay, you should write about: The types of sports and games in your school • Reasons why sports and games is essential • Which sports and games would benefit you. Write your essay using all the notes given and giving reasons for your point of view
Answer:
Sports play an important part in a student's life due to numerous reasons.
There are many sports and games that take place in our school. The most popular sport at our school is Basketball. Apart from Basketball, students here play football, tennis, badminton, hockey, cricket and swimming.
Sports are important for students as they keep them physically fit. Health is wealth, and they cannot succeed without being in a good physical condition. Sports also allow students to relax their mind, away from the normal school subjects. Sports are a way of recreation. Sports also help build a better character in a student as they learn important skills such as team work and leadership.
Personally I believe swimming would benefit me the most as it uses all parts of the body. I find swimming very relaxing and fun. It is a good way to maintain my fitness, while relaxing at the same time. Basketball would also be a benefit to me, as it would help me develop team work skills.
It can be concluded that sports are very important for students.

This is the story of Kiowa greatness, the part of Kiowa history on which Momaday prefers to dwell. Momaday structures the story loosely around the three major periods of Kiowa history, and this passage describes the first two: the Kiowa journey out of the hardship of the northern plains, and the golden age in which the Kiowas ruled the southern plains. Notably, the story of Kiowa greatness is not limited to a focus on Kiowas; Momaday also gives credit to horses and the Comanches
Explanation:
The overall meaning of the chapter is the narration of the Kiowa history to show both their times of hardship and their golden ages.
