Animal Farm Passage Analysis
This passage reminds of the scene in Animal Farm where Benjamin is trying to save Boxer from going on the van that is taking him to the glue factory. Therefore, Benjamin was shouting at Boxer who was already on the van, just like how Liesel runs down to Munich Street to see the Max for the last time. While the bystanders in this passage are like the other animals in Animal Farm who didn’t help Benjamin at all and just stood there to watch the van drive by. All in all these text allows me to visualize the scene better and feel that Liesel is heartbroken as her best friend is being taken away. Likewise Benjamin is devastated when he realizes that he would not be able to see his best friend, Boxer ever again.

    The theme of “Raiders of the Lost Ark” is their use of plot. This is because the story shows us that taking chances and being adventurous with life helps you discover new and exciting things. The thing that the filmmakers are trying to tell us is to go out and experience these new things so that you can make the most out of life like Indiana Jones but not to be too reckless like the people that opened the ark and payed the price for it. This lesson is successful because it’s demonstrating the excitement of exploring the world in search of new finds that are interesting and could benefit the world. If I were the director of this film however I wouldn’t have left a kind of cliffhanger at the end of the film that left some unanswered questions…

    in the book lord of the flies, Piggy is treated like an outsider by all t the other boys on the island, mainly Jack. I personally think that the boys are treating Piggy that way because him and might be intimidated, Piggy is obviously very intelligent and i think all the boys had an idea of it when the were together for the first time and that's probably the main reason of the teasing because they know he's superior. In our society today so many people are treated like Piggy on a daily bases such as new kids at a new school, disabled people and people in different class systems. These people get hurt everyday because no one is there to help them, if this world is evolving and changing why is people hurting other people physically, mentally and emotionally still such a big issue ?…

    In the novel Animal Farm, George Orwell hints that power corrupts through the use of an allegorical storyline. By using historical criticism, one can analyze the causes and effects of ruthless ambition. During the WWII era, there was widespread corruption in many nations, as seen in Germany with Hitler and Russia with Stalin. This time period of chaos exposed the lack of compassion among humans. Similar to this era, there were cultural and political struggles among the humans and animals in the farm as well. Ironically, in the animal’s struggle to free themselves of human dictatorship they end up oppressing their own kind.…
