Gabe's eyes widened when he noticed the return address on the envelope. He fought the temptation to rip it open, opting instead to carefully peel up the envelope flap. The last thing he wanted to do was risk damaging the tickets inside. He unfolded the paper inside and
caught the tickets that fell from within. His stomach felt like it had been turned inside out when Gabe realized he was only holding two tickets
in his hand. He quickly scanned the letter and found his cousin's explanation.
Gabe slumped against the porch railing when he discovered these were the last two available tickets to the concert. He had planned to
take both Lenny and Tyler, his two best friends, to the concert with him. Now he was faced with the most difficult decision of his year: What do
I do with only two tickets? Gabe thought about the numerous times Lenny had invited him to join him on mountain bike trips. Lenny had even
loaned Gabe his extra bike once when Gabe's bike got a flat. Bringing Lenny to the concert would be a way of thanking him for his generous
nature. Then again, Gabe realized his parents would not have allowed him to ask his cousin for the tickets if Gabe's biology grade hadn't made
a turn for the better. Tyler was definitely responsible for the improvement. He had tutored Gabe after school for weeks; surely, Gabe should
show his appreciation in some way.
Deciding between Lenny and Tyler tormented Gabe all week. Finally, he decided to give both tickets to his friends. He believed he would
have another opportunity to hear his favorite band in concert, but he might never meet anyone else as loyal or helpful as his two best friends.
When Gabe opens the envelope, he discovers only two tickets.

What else do you think experts can learn from studying the language of written work? what do you think is the value of studying the language of william shakespeare whose writing is over hundreds of years old?

Read the passage from animal farm. as clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with tears. if she could have spoken her thoughts, it would have been to say that this was not what they had aimed at when they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race. these scenes of terror and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on that night when old major first stirred them to rebellion. if she herself had had any picture of the future, it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of major's speech. instead—she did not know why—they had come to a time when no one dared speak his mind, when fierce, growling dogs roamed everywhere, and when you had to watch your comrades torn to pieces after confessing to shocking crimes. there was no thought of rebellion or disobedience in her mind. she knew that, even as things were, they were far better off than they had been in the days of jones, and that before all else it was needful to prevent the return of the human beings. whatever happened she would remain faithful, work hard, carry out the orders that were given to her, and accept the leadership of napoleon. but still, it was not for this that she and all the other animals had hoped and toiled. it was not for this that they had built the windmill and faced the bullets of jones's gun. such were her thoughts, though she lacked the words to express them. what was most likely orwell’s purpose for writing this passage? to show that clover is more sensitive to violence than the others to remind readers of major's speech and the original rebellion to present napoleon as a cruel leader unworthy of the animals’ support to represent misled followers and their dashed hopes for better lives
