Step 1:  Determine which options are correct

To revise the paragraph and make the analysis clearer, what literary terms should be substituted for the underlined words in the paragraph? Select two options.

- Option B:  characterization

- Option E:  theme

The options that make sense are Option B and E.  The reason why Option B makes sense is because to revise this you can indeed use characterization to make it better.  Also, the reason why Option E is correct is because you would need to add a theme to make it more clearer.

Look at attachment

in this passage from chapter 6 of "animal farm", by george orwell, what the author is ridiculing in this passage is the frivolity of some rules.

clover, the mare, believes she remembers that the fourth commandment forbade sleeping in beds because it was something that humans did. snowball, napoleon, and the pigs are brain-workers who look after the welfare of the farm. they are the obvious leaders because they are smart, and so they are entitled to eat the best food and sleep in beds. it is squealer, who says these lines making the difference between sleeping with sheets, what humans do, and sleeping in beds, what pigs do. the unwillingness to question authority makes the oppressed to obey without thinking.

what are the choices?
