Read this excerpt from a personal narrative. “That will be $7.50,” the cashier said after ringing up the groceries I hoped to purchase. I looked in my wallet and saw only a $5 bill. My face flushed as I realized I would have to put a few things back. “Um . . . sorry. I thought I had more money with me,” I replied. “What if I put back the bottle of juice? How much will that be?” Immediately, the woman standing in line behind me reached into her purse, pulled out $2.50, and handed it to the cashier. “Oh, thanks,” I said, surprised and relieved at the same time. “This is so generous of you. How can I repay you?” “Don’t thank me,” the woman replied. “I’m no saint. I just don’t want to wait in line any longer. Now you can go, and I can finally buy my groceries and get out of here.” What does the dialogue in the paragraph reveal about the narrator?

Read the passage from 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. what was most likely orwell’s purpose for writing this passage? to show that clover is more sensitive to violence than the others to remind readers of major's speech and the original rebellion to present napoleon as a cruel leader unworthy of the animals’ support to represent misled followers and their dashed hopes for better lives
