Do you think orwell wrote this essay to inform or to persuade his audience? how did orwell expect his audience to react to his ideals? how can you tell? shooting an elephant.

Orwell wrote Shooting an Elephant to inform people about British Imperialism over Burma. He expects the audience to sympathize with his feelings of hatred, cowardice, and humiliation towards colonialism and imperialism. He shows his feelings of disagreement but at the same time, he tries not to show that he's not on the British side. He shows how he finds himself stuck between his own humanity and the rest of humanity's expectations. He expects the audience to get a close idea of what was going on with Burmese and the British colonialism at that time. Also, how it felt to be the oppressor and be oppressed at the same time.

for me, i'd go with (c) satisfied or (b) overjoyed because if you read it a couple of times, it makes since that it is c or b. it can't b (a) angry because booker was never angry about anything. at the end of the paragraph, booker states, "i think there are not many men in our country who have had the privilege of naming themselves in the way that i " i think that sentence kind of gives away the also, some words in the paragraph can also you like for example, "indulged," "calmly," "perplexity," "privilege," and defining words that you don't know, can you understand more of that paragraph and it can also increase your comprehension. : )

i'm really rally sorry if i'm incorrect, but if i'm hope this ! : )
