Read the excerpt below and answer the question.

iron and steel do not tangle like thread, cord, or rope. perhaps chain tangles like logs, and words like jam or snag would be better to describe what happens when links twist out of line and chains of different gauge twine like tresses. wood has water to propel them part of their way. professional handlers have winches and pulleys and special vehicles to transport piles like the one the man now dragged up the slightly inclining driveway.

what does the manic tone of this excerpt from “'agua viva,' a sculpture by alfred gonzalez” convey?

a. fredo’s unhinged psychological state
b. fredo’s fierce anger toward the world
c. fredo’s urgent need to finish his project
d. fredo’s fear of the neighborhood bullies

The correct answer is option A. "Fredo’s unhinged psychological state".

Explanation:

Jack Agüeros's "'Agua Viva,' a Sculpture by Alfred Gonzalez" tells the story of Filthy Fredo, an hermit that loses his mind and starts collecting scrap metal and hasn't shaved or showered in five years. This excerpt shows Fredo’s unhinged psychological state by the way he compares iron and steel with chains and words. Filthy Fredo starts to have incoherent thoughts and this excerpt is an example of this.

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.
