Write a dialogue between two syudents who have distinct views on the qualities of captain or a leader.
leonid [27]

Student A: I believe that an authoritarian leader can be more efficient in his work and can lead the team to success faster than a non-authoritarian leader.

Student B: Why?

Student A: Because a leader who imposes himself and promotes a rigid position and without many friendships manages to impose a strong respect, making everyone talk about his activities without excuse.

Student B: I don't agree with his position. I believe that an authoritarian leader does not promote respect, but fear in his team. Fear is a bad feeling that causes the team to not do quality work, in addition, this type of leader promotes the dissolution of the team, which ends up defeating it.

Student A: What do you suggest, then?

Student B: I suggest a leader who promotes friendship and well-being, allowing a comfortable environment, where everyone can do their best without suffering pressure.

Student A: I think that delays the work.

Student B: On the contrary. This type of leader promotes effective and fluid work, which speeds up the completion of all activities.

Student A: This type of leader does not promote respect in the same way, but promotes admiration.

Student B: But admiration leads to respect and authoritarianism leads to abandonment.

Student A: I believe that you are right on some points, but I am still not convinced, we can meet tomorrow and deepen this discussion.

Student B: Sure.

Answer:

C). Parody compares the pigs with human leaders in the real world.

D). Exaggeration makes Pilkington seem ridiculous and similar to the pigs.

E). Satire creates an attitude of contempt for the pigs’ treatment of the other animals.

Explanation:

Satire is demonstrated as the literary device that employs irony, humor, overstatement, or ridicule to reveal and comment upon the follies or vices inherent in the society or an individual.

In the given excerpt from 'Animal Farm', Orwell's use of parody(imitation of a specific author or genre to intentionally exaggerate it  and generate a comic effect) assists in establishing the comparison between the pigs and human leaders which critiques the foibles of the latter mockingly. Exaggeration helps in ridiculing Pilkington's foolishness that makes him look similar to the pigs. While <u>satire displays Orwell's disdainful attitude towards the manner in which the pigs(representing Pilkington) treat other animals('long working hours, absence of pampering')</u>. Thus, the satire assists in highlighting and critiquing the corruption and vices of the leader like Pilkington more effectively before the audience. Thus, <u>options C, D, and E</u> are the correct answers.
