English urgent - one question! "but what is strange about these people is their invisibility. for several weeks, always at about the same time of day, the file of old women had hobbled past the house with their firewood, and though they had registered themselves on my eyeballs i cannot truly say that i had seen them. firewood was passing—that was how i saw it. it was only that one day i happened to be walking behind them, and the curious up-and-down motion of a load of wood drew my attention to the human being underneath it. then for the first time i noticed the poor old earth-coloured bodies, bodies reduced to bones and leathery skin, bent double under the crushing weight." in this excerpt from george orwell's essay marrakech, the author uses figurative language as a literary device. in 3-5 sentences, identify and describe one example of figurative language from the text, and explain how orwell uses this device to support his view of the british empire. include evidence from the text to support your answer.

there on the beach was a struggling turtle.   around its bright green neck was a loop of soda can rings.   in order to the planet, i have made a few changes to my life.   the first change is reducing the number of straws used. the second change was to recycle.   finally, i have worked hard to clean up litter.   it is important to clean our ocean.

you may not think straws have a large impact but they do.   imagine for every straw you sip out of a poor, , adorable turtle is being harmed.   one way i chipped in to is by using metal straws.   these straws are reusable and inexpensive.   another change is simply turning down straws.   by refusing a straw, i’m the turtles one drink at a time.  

however, the ocean just doesn't have turtles.   there are lots of creatures that live there and are harmed by all the litter.   to prevent litter from growing it’s important to recycle.   for me, i have started to buy most goods that are made out of recycled material.   pura vidas, chacos, purses, and too many other items to even count.   plus, when you buy those products they give money to charities.   not only am i the environment, but i’m also feeling better about my self.   finally, i have worked hard to clean up litter.   it is important to clean our ocean.
