Hi there!

1. The correct answer is letter A) Orwell himself.

2. The correct answet is letter C) Disgusted and ashamed.

Explanation:

In this George Orwell's essay, the main idea is Orwell's contradiction to imperialism and how the society force an individual to act according to its ideals. This essay recounts the story, apparently of Orwell himself, when he was around twenty years old during which he has to decide if he kills an elephant or not. Around that age, he spent five years as a British police officer in Burma and, one day when an elephant broke loose, the Burmese ask him to kill the elephant, but he does not want to do it and he does not want to look like a fool in front of the Burmese. Still, he feels oppressed by society and its ideals, he says "When the white man turns tyrant, it is his own freedom that he destroys" inferring that when you give in to do what society says, you lose your freedom and essence. Here, Orwell himself is the dominant symbol, reflecting what society "asked him" todo against his ideals, he gifts his own freedom to society and he feels ashamed and disgusted of what he just did.        

3. The correct answer is letter A) Competitive nature.

Explanation:

In Eveline, even tough she had paralysis, Eveline is figuratively in irons, a prisoner of her religious servility and her self-deception that she must stay to protect her brother and help her father.  

In The Rocking-Horse Winner, the conflict is one of man against society or life in the sense that Paul must obtain enough money so that the family can have the life that they want to have.

These two main characters wanted to go against nature.

you need to explain that more, your grammer just needs to be close to perfect.
