The correct answer is C.

In this excerpt, Howell is trying to show how Editha sought to manipulate her fiancé, George Gearson into going to war.

Even though she knew she was merely repeating things she had read on the newspapers, she would not stop until her point was made and George was convinced of the utter necessity of fighting in the war.

Answer:

Unacceptable.

Explanation:

The word "taboo" usually refers to anything that is deemed illegal, prohibited, repulsive, unacceptable, etc. It is used to talk of things that are not openly discussed, or accepted, and are secretive.

In the given scenario, Ron's refusal to talk about his salary shows he finds the topic unacceptable to be talked about openly. He seems to take the topic as something that is not openly talked about, and needs not do it. To him, his salary is something that is 'unacceptable' to be revealed.

Answer:

C) Clover feels frustrated at what has happened at the farm and at her inability to stop it.

Explanation:

" 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." Here she thinks of how she Could've spoken her thoughts and perhaps could've had an influence on the events, but now, she has lost hope, with no picture of the future with just terror and control everywhere. The other options don't really work with the text as the last sentence: "There was no thought of rebellion or disobedience in her mind." goes against A and she was for Old Major's beliefs, but is distraught that the society has gone completely away from what they were. Hope this helps, idk why the other answer is that from another question.

Which of these things most symbolizes hope and life in the play?
