In the story Animal Farm the many of the charcters are very gulliable. The character are like that,but most of them are.In the story Animal farm Squealer uses several rhetorical stratagies to convince the animals to submit to Napolean's rule.
One of the chracters Squealer is very persuasive. Squealer is good at persuading people because he doesn't really give the animals an option. Squealer tells animals that they had to decide to go to with the humans or follow the other pigs. Squealer tell the animals,"He (Napolean) would be only too happy to let you make your own decisons for yourselves. "But sometimes you might make the wrong decisons comrades,and then we're should we be?" In reality this relates to when President George Bush
gives the Americans two options. The options were that they either agree with,Good vs.Evil or Action vs. Inaction.
Secondly another thing that Squealer did was spin a story about the character Snowball ruining the windmill that the animals had worked very hard on. The reason that Squealer told the animals that lie is because he wanted the animals to go against snowball. A quote from the story is that "He had seem to oposse the windmill..." Something that relates to the United States problems one time in reality is that when 9/11 had happened President Bush had blamed other countries for this devastating tragic.
Something in Animal Farm that Squealer always does is think that there is no doubt that the pigs are wrong ever. The pigs believe that they are never wrong because they are more literate than the other animals. In the story it says that most of the animals couldn't get pass the letter "A." In reality one time President Bush thought he knew every thing about Iraq, but that was untrue.
In conclusion you know what Squealer did to make the animals believe his lies. Also how these parts of the alegory relates to the story.

Animal Farm
The animals accepts Napolean's lies because most of the animals are not as literate as the pigs. One of the horse, Boxer has a slogan he always says," Napolean's always right." Most of the animals in the story can not get pass the letter "d,"but the pigs are literate. The pigs are smarter than the other animals in the farm. The animals are not literate and that is why the pigs take contorl of them.

The Greatest Game Ever Played: Essay
In the story I think the character Zaroff values liberty the most. There are many reasons that I think that Zaroff values liberty the most because he loves to hunt more than anything. I know that Zaroff loves to hunt more than anything because as a child he used to hunt with his father. In the story Zaroff says,"When I was five years old he gave me a little gun." The second example that shows me Zaroff enjoys hunting is when he tells us as a reader that he enjoys hunting for humans also. Zaroff says, My whole life has been prolonged hunt." That tells us how much he loves to hunt a lot. Lastly you know that Zaroff is for liberty because he believes he much stronger than everyone else, and that he should control the whole universe. I know that Zaroff believes this because when he is hunting for Rainsford he gives him very little to protect himself. While Zaroff uses his pack of dogs to hunt for Rainsford. In conclusion these are many ways that Zaroff is for liberty.
