as youngest among us, but small no more,

your life can be trying, for we have the chore

of becoming your teachers, a terrible bore.

“we’ve got experience! take it from me! ”

“we’ve done this all before, you see.

we know the ropes, we know the same.”

since time immemorial, always the same.

one’s own shortcomings are nothing but fluff,

but everyone else’s are heavier stuff:

faultfinding comes easy when this is our plight,

but it’s hard for your parents,

try as they might,

to treat you with fairness, and kindness as well;

nitpicking’s a habit that’s hard to dispel.

men you’re living with old folks,

all you can do is put up with their nagging — it’s hard but it’s true.

the pill may be bitter, but down it must go,

for it’s meant to keep the peace, you know.

the many months here have not been in vain,

since wasting time noes against your brain.

you read and study nearly all the day,

determined to chase the boredom away.

the more difficult question, much harder to bear,
is “what on earth do i have to wear?

i’ve got no more panties, my clothes are too tight,

my shirt is a loincloth, i’m really a sight!

to put on my shoes i must off my toes,

oh dear, i’m plagued with so many woes! ”

no plagiarism!

what is the question that you are asking

given the fact that the question is about the detail that best support the idea that oppressive leaders use   propaganda to achieve thir goals,   the first option does not refer to any kind of propaganda, since it only tells about that the milk and the windfall apple should be reserved for the pigs. in the second option, that is, "snowball and napoleon sent out flights of pigeons whose instructions were to mingle with the animals on the neighbouring farms, tell them the story of the rebellion, and teach them the tune of "beasts of england". it can be identified that the oppressors make use of the propaganda, which is represented by the pigeons, and the information they have to tell other animals about what was happening in the farm in order to get their objectives. for that reason, the right answer is the second option, taking into account that the third option do not refer to propaganda since it only talks about that they did not want jones back. and, finally, the last option refers to the result of the given news, but it does not mean about the propaganda they used to achieve their goals.

in the short story the slip-over sweater by jesse stuart, the main character and narrator shan is friends with grace, an intelligent girl he has known since childhood and with whom he used to be in love.

at the beginning of the story, shan believes he’s no longer in love with grace, but loves jo-anne instead. in order to buy a slip-over sweater and have jo-anne wear it so that the other students would know she loved him too, shan takes a loan at the bank.

while jo-anne is wearing shan’s sweater, his friend grace starts to wear another popular boy’s one, roy’s sweater. because of that, the other students begin to pay attention to grace and compliment her perseverance and effort. they admire her for walking 5 miles to school every day, despite the weather, and still getting the best grades. shan, who knows all of that for a fact, says, as the narrator, ‘and i knew she had the durability and the toughness of a storm-battered mountain oak.’ he compares his friend’s strength – not only physical, but also of character – to an oak tree, whose wood is known for being sturdy.

as the story goes on, shan changes his behavior out of concern for the debt he has to pay at the bank. his new girlfriend jo-anne never asks him what is wrong nor offers any sort of . instead, she breaks up with shan for not being as fun as she thought he was supposed to be. grace, however, not only asks about shan’s problem, but him make the money he needs. shan can’t but notice how different the girls are and what a wonderful person grace is.   even though he used to find jo-anne prettier at the beginning of the story, he now says, ‘grace was as beautiful as our mountain was in april, prettier than a blossom of wild phlox or a mountain daisy.’ his comparing grace to a mountain or something that exists on a mountain (such as a mountain oak or daisy) certainly has important meaning since shan loves the mountain and everything about it and he knows the mountain thoroughly. shan also loves and knows grace as completely as he does the mountain.
