Writing task 3

1. Do we change our identity when we wear different clothes, for example, when we are not wearing our school uniform?

I think that it change in a way, for example when we use uniform we are like part of the school and with street cloths we aren't part of the school, in way. When we are with the school uniform we are, sort of representing the school  (in my case, I don't care about it) we are saying, "We are part of the school!", and with the streets clothes we are only us.

2. Do we change our way of speaking when we are wearing different types of clothes, for example, school uniform or more casual clothes?

Yes, but it also depend on the place we are, for example if we are with our street cloths in school we would speak mor formal than outside the school, the same with the uniform school. Since I don't care about representing the school, outside the school I use the same language with the uniform, but normally I don't go out with it, and streets cloths. While during in the school I use the same language with the street cloths and school uniform at school.

3. How do our clothes represent our identity?

They represent our identity, because we use what we like, think and other things, for example I'm using a portal 2 shirt (portal 2 is a game that I like), so I'm saying that I like that game or types of games that are similar, that can happen with sports, music, art, history, and many other things, also there are some stereotypes that some people wear certain things, so with that we are saying that the people tend to dress with the things they like and in some extended with that we are telling to the others how we are.

Writing task

Animal Farm is not just the story of some animals that took over a farm; it is also the story of the rise of Communism and the Russian Revolution or, other totalitarian system. Your task will be to write a formal letter to a newspaper’s editor that tells of the changes Animal Farm undergoes following Old Major’s death. You’ll base what happens to the farm on what happened to the *film we saw in class or on the chapter 1 Old major’s speech.

Dear editor,

I am writing to you about what happened after the death of Old Major at the farm.

After the death of Old Major, the farm started changing into a type of totalitarian system, because old major said, "man is the only real enemy we have" and with that, Napoleon started persuading the animals that they had to attack the humans and eventually he gained power. Consequently he starts making all the things he wanted.

Napoleon had a similar government to a totalitarian system, because almost all of the animals were not happy with the things that Napoleon did, but if they did not follow him, they could be killed like the hens. Also Napoleon was like a God while the others lived in a very poor way, Napoleon lived in huge house while the others lived in the barn.

Another thing that shows the differences after Old Majors death is that, Old Major said: "all the habits of human beings are evil, that shows that he did what he wanted to do, he lived like a human while the others like a homeless, also he had food and drink as if he was the most important "person" in the world, while the other animals did not have food sometimes.

Finally, the animal farm started with a noble cause, but after the death of Old Major, with Napoleon the idea changed to a type of totalitarian system, where you had to do what the ruler said, because if you did not obey them you could be killed, something that is totally different from the first idea.

Animal farm: The film

1)  I don't like this idea, because is sort of spooky, and that is because we make them awful things, and if they do a revolution we could suffer a lot, but it's interesting the references that are made of us, there's a social disagreement and we tend to react.

2) I sympathize with the animals complains, but no with the goals, because it's true that they suffer and they need, some, freedom, but we need them, so if they are free we couldn't have a life like we have.

3) After the death of old major they decide, after being a day with out food  they decide to get it by their own "hands" . They start to want things, that we want, like being happy, living in a good environment, freedom, etc..

4) The pigs gains the rights to the cow's milk by saying them that the only way they can tach TV is doing that, and the others animals allow that, because they want  to see TV. This suggest that the pigs are getting the power because they are the"intellectuals", they write and read.

5) My reaction was bad, because really the good guy was snowball, but the others animals didn't saw that thing, snowball was trying to do a sort of industrial revolution with the windmills.

6) Napoleon tries to solidify his leadership position by saying that he has to educate the puppies of Jessie, with that he can teach what he want using the puppies as servants, like bodyguards, and by treating snowball like a traitor, with that there's no enemy in the farm, so he can rule. The process of decision changes under Napoleon's leadership in the way that it was like an emperor, because he starting making the things he want and no the things that are for the animals good, so is like the rich and poor people thing, he live like a king, in the house, while the others are poor, in a way.

7) The executions take place because, in a ways, of the owner of the farm, he blow up the windmill, so Napoleon says that was snowball how did that, with the destruction of the windmill, the animals had to work more and harder, also, the food was low, so the hens where told to give their eggs to the animals, they didn't want so they in the night sacrifice their eggs, with that, in a video that the pigs show to the animals, they show what would happen to them if they don't do what they want them to do.

8) I think that it's fair that the more educated have influences int the decisions, but also its important that the intelligent or old ones as well, and thats because there we can have the vision of the one that knows about the things, then the one that have lived or the one that have the mind to understand things. In my family the decisions ara my mother and father, but with my father if I say no he probably would discusse why, in if I'm right it would be no, so its in one case the old one in other the older and educated or intelligent, in the nation is kind of similar, because the politicians make all this fakes things and talk fake things, so is like very more of the one that is more intelligent in the speaking, and really the important ones are the ministers and the senator and deputies, because they are the ones who rule the country, the intellectual and old, in some cases.

9) The power can change the ones who have it, because, you can start with a good aspirations and hopes, but in the process you can start thinking "I can do the things I want" or something like that, the animal farm starts like a "good" (not for me) thing, but in the process the pigs only want power, to do what they want, to rule the other, like when you say "the person with power only want more power".

10) The pigs, in a way are more intelligent, because they know how to write and read, but really in this cases I think that the more important thing is the good for the others, so the pigs are like egocentric by making rules, teaching things to the others, they really do everything in the intellectual way, for saying it in a way, so they started only doing the good things for them, when really the idea of the animal farm was that all of them are equal, so its like contradictory with that. It's true that they have the qualities to lead the animals, but they are the only ones that know how to read and write so that make them the important ones, with that they star to act like that, so there is not a discussion in the way the farm has to be, so the point is they are more in intelligent and enable to lead the animals, because they know the things, but they rule in a bad way
