What concession does Chamberlain make in this
passage?
Read the passage then answer the question that
follows
It has had a hard life of it, this feeling of Imperial
patriotism. It was checked for a generation by the
apathy and the indifference which were the
characteristics of our former relations with our Colonies,
but it was never extinguished. The embers were still
alight, and when in the late war this old country of ours
showed that it was still possessed by the spirit of our
ancestors, and that it was still prepared to count no
sacrifice that was necessary in order to maintain the
honor and the interests of the Empire, then you found a
response from your children across the seas that
astonished the whole world by a proof, an undeniable
proof, of affection and regard.
- "I Believe in a British Empire,”
Joseph Chamberlain
The honor and interests of the British Empire are all
that matter.
Britain once felt apathetic and indifferent toward its
colonies.
Affection and regard, the feelings of British children
are proof of Britain's new way of life.
Britain is still defined by the spirit of its ancestors
and thirsts for war.

Read the passage from animal farm. one sunday morning squealer announced that the hens, who had just come in to lay again, must surrender their eggs. napoleon had accepted, through whymper, a contract for four hundred eggs a week. the price of these would pay for enough grain and meal to keep the farm going till summer came on and conditions were easier. when the hens heard this, they raised a terrible outcry. they had been warned earlier that this sacrifice might be necessary, but had not believed that it would really happen. they were just getting their clutches ready for the spring sitting, and they protested that to take the eggs away now was murder. for the first time since the expulsion of jones, there was something resembling a rebellion. led by three young black minorca pullets, the hens made a determined effort to thwart napoleon's wishes. their method was to fly up to the rafters and there lay their eggs, which smashed to pieces on the floor. napoleon acted swiftly and ruthlessly. he ordered the hens' rations to be stopped, and decreed that any animal giving so much as a grain of corn to a hen should be punished by death. the dogs saw to it that these orders were carried out. for five days the hens held out, then they capitulated and went back to their nesting boxes. nine hens had died in the meantime. their bodies were buried in the orchard, and it was given out that they had died of coccidiosis. whymper heard nothing of this affair, and the eggs were duly delivered, a grocer's van driving up to the farm once a week to take them away. which detail from the passage supports the claim that this is an allegory for the great purge? the hens holding out for five days but capitulating the eggs being delivered to the grocer the protesting hens being intentionally starved coccidiosis spreading on the farm
