Read the excerpt from Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms. The major was a little man with upturned mustaches. He had been in the war in Libya and wore two wound-
stripes. He said that if the thing went well he would see that I was decorated. I said I hoped it would go well
but that he was too kind. I asked him if there was a big dugout where the drivers could stay and he sent a
soldier to show meli went with him and found the dugout, which was very good. The drivers were pleased
with it and I left them there.
What effect does Hemingway's limited use of adjectives have?
O It slows down the narration by interrupting the action
O It makes the few descriptive words he does use more vivid and forceful
O It makes the narrator seem powerless and insincere.
It prevents the readers from filling in the details with their own experiences.

overnment is strong when they have the ability to persuade those they govern to believe government has enough power to force them or should be forcing them to do government’s will.

when enough of the citizenry do not believe government can force them or should force them to do its bidding, government has lost or will lose its strength and power to coerce.

when enough of the citizenry do believe government can force or should force them to do its bidding, they become passive at the least or actively pro-government and repeat government’s own rhetoric to pass on what they have been persuaded by government’s propaganda.

a true majority isn’t always needed to govern or to stop government. many times all that is needed is a strong minority. if a determined 30% of the population rises up against government in a concerted effort to bring it down, this size minority usually will succeed as long as those actively opposing the minority are less in force than the minority. so if 41% of the population sits at home watching tv rooting for one side or the other, they don’t matter. it’s the active parties who make a difference.
