Brutus it must be by his death, and for my part i know no personal cause to spurn at him but for the general. he would be crowned. how that might change his nature, there's the question. it is the bright day that brings forth the adder and that craves wary walking. crown him that, and then i grant we put a sting in him that at his will he may do danger with. th' abuse of greatness is when it disjoins remorse from power. and, to speak truth of caesar, i have not known when his affections swayed more than his reason. but 'tis a common proof that lowliness is young ambition's ladder, whereto the climber upward turns his face. but when he once attains the upmost round, he then unto the ladder turns his back, looks in the clouds, scorning the base degrees by which he did ascend. so caesar may. then, lest he may, prevent. and since the quarrel will bear no color for the thing he is, fashion it thus: that what he is, augmented, would run to these and these extremities. and therefore think him as a serpent's egg— which, hatched, would as his kind grow mischievous— and kill him in the shell.
the "common proof" that brutus cites as a reason for killing caesar is based on
a historic behavior of those in power
b private discussions with caesar
c evidence of caesars planned treason
d the nature of brutus childhood

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

Why does the author's description of the mercury boiler—"the mercury, when vaporized, going into a mercury turbine and then into a condenser, remaining hot enough to generate steam in a steam boiler"—intentionally incorporate such highly technical language? using technical language establishes the expertise of the writer and convey the complex nature of the process being described. using technical language allows the writer to subtly poke fun at those who seek to make basic processes seem overly complicated. using technical language encourages readers to develop deeper and more meaningful personal connections to the information. using technical language lets the writer make clear to readers that the article is intended for readers who are themselves experts on electricity.
