Read the passage from "Girl.” Always eat your food in such a way that it won’t turn someone else’s stomach; on Sundays try to walk like a lady and not like the sIut you are so bent on becoming; don’t sing benna in Sunday School; you mustn’t speak to wharf-rat boys, not even to give directions; don’t eat fruits on the street—flies will follow you.

Read the passage from an adaptation of "Girl.”

She didn’t believe her daughter. Not even a little bit. The girl insisted she hadn’t been to the wharf, where the men preyed, not boys. Where else, after all, would she have learned those ridiculous songs! Such places, she knew from her own experiences, were dangerous for girls, and life changing; but how to communicate that to a girl just that age, without sending her running, so misunderstood, in the wrong direction?

What is the best comparison of the narration style in the original version and the adaptation?

Both share a stream-of-consciousness style of narration, but in the adaptation, the story is being narrated by another character.

Both are told in chronological order by an omniscient narrator, and the original text contains the plot elements of a more traditional narrative.

The original text has a stream-of-consciousness style of narration, and events in the adaptation are told in chronological order.

The original text is narrated by a third-person limited-omniscient narrator, but the adaptation is narrated by a third-person objective narrator.

Read these paragraphs from the story. i told him my address. it would take an hour’s quick walk to get back home. “it’s like this,” he said. “we’ll look at the matter straight. if you go back home tonight, you take your chance of accidents. a cart may run over you, and there’s always banana skins and orange peel, to say nothing of fallen ladders.” he spoke of the improbable with an intense seriousness that would have been laughable six hours before. but i did not laugh. what does this interaction between the two men reveal about james? james is skeptical and thinks mr. atkinson is overreacting to the situation. james is dismayed by the things mr. atkinson says and begins to feel uncomfortable. james is surprised by mr. atkinson's solemnness and thinks there is value in what the man is saying. james is appreciative of mr. atkinson's concern and wonders if he should hurry home. the correct answer is; "james is surprised by mr. atkinson's solemnness and thinks there is value in what the man is saying." i am not putting this up so someone can answer but so when people search this they will know the correct the correct answer is not; "james is skeptical and thinks mr. atkinson is overreacting to the situation." everyone said that was the right answer but its your

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
