The answer is D: "He intended, he said, to devote the rest of his life to learning the remaining twenty-two letters of the alphabet".
This excerpt has been taken from "Animal Farm", written by George Orwell in 1945. "Animal Farm" tells the story of a group of farm animals which rebel against their farmer and start controlling the farm by themselves. According to many, this novel is an allegory of the Russian Revolution and many of the themes presented here reflect our own society. One of these themes is the lack of education which contributes to the vulnerability and oppression of people. Important figures or politicians take advantage of people's ignorance in order to win popularity and have power. One clear example is Boxer, one of the horses in the farm. Although Boxer is a very loyal comrade, he is not very smart and he has been controlled from the very beginning by the selfish pigs. Boxer can not even get past letter 'D' from the alphabet, so, in order to support this idea of lack of education, Orwell includes this passage where Boxer is determined to learn the rest of the remaining letters of the alphabet to be smarter.

When Pahom starts traversing the Bashkirs' land, he really couldn't be happier. He thinks he's come across the bargain of a lifetime: as much land as he can travel in a single day at a knock-down
I believe we should not be given any homework today. Our class works hard and we do a lot of homework. My parents might be fed up with the lack of time they get to spend with me. Do you really want an angry letter and a bad rating? My parents want me to enjoy life and be a kid. Also, if we didn't have homework tonight, I could get together and reconnect with friends i have not seen for a long time. Isn't friendship and joy more important than homework? So, as I hope you can see, homework is not a priority compared to simple joys of life like family and friendships. I hope you will not assign any homework tonight. :)
