In the late summer yet another of snowball's machinations was laid bare. the wheat crop was full of weeds, and it was discovered that on one of his nocturnal visits snowball had mixed weed seeds with the seed corn. a gander who had been privy to the plot had confessed his guilt to squealer and immediately committed suicide by swallowing deadly nightshade berries. the animals now also learned that snowball had never—as many of them had believed hitherto—received the order of "animal hero, first class." this was merely a legend which had been spread some time after the battle of the cowshed by snowball himself. so far from being decorated, he had been censured for showing cowardice in the battle. once again some of the animals heard this with a certain bewilderment, but squealer was soon able to convince them that their memories had been at fault. which statement best summarizes the theme of this passage? even heroes cannot be trusted with the success of a community. those in power may spread propaganda to further their cause. the fight to gain power can cause best friends to become enemies. great leaders empower others to do their very best. answer is no one answered in time and i got it right on the test

The answer is B. Those in power may spread propaganda to further their cause.

In Animal Farm, the animals choose to live in an equal society and expel the human who used to own the farm. The pigs are the ones who take upon themselves the incumbency of leading the other animals. It is a representation of Stalinist Russia.

The pig Napoleon, however, decides to become a dictator and gets rid of another pig, Snowball, so that he would have his path free to do as he wished.

Snowball was greatly admired by the other animals for his leadership and bravery. So, in order to taint Snowball's image, Napoleon and Squealer lie about him (spread false propaganda). That way, even though the other animals are a bit suspicious at first, Napoleon is able to keep them faithful to himself, doing his bidding.

yep infact it is B

Explanation:

fidelis umeh was born in nigeria and lived there through his high school years. fidelis umeh grew up with strong family values of the traditions of the ibos, a culture within nigeria. "one thing that we nigerians, particularly the ibos, have taught us from youth is the value of education. it is paramount. and the drive to succeed--my culture says that each person must work very hard and that is essential to success, which is very important. and we have support from family that keeps us going when things are difficult. sometimes perseverance can make the difference between success and failure."

he moved to the united states when he went to college. after he finished college, he stayed connected to his family in nigeria. he returned to nigeria at least once a year. but he made his home and career in this country. he became a business leader.

fidelis umeh has succeeded in the business community, which some people see as a separate culture all of its own. he planned projects. he designed systems. he brought new ideas to businesses. he has been president of a company that employs hundreds of highly skilled individuals. at the same time, he kept his commitment to his original culture.

in 1991, he founded a group to support nigerians in chicago. "i formed a group of nigerians to be an anchor for them that will fit into the american society but at the same time will give them something to fall back on in times of adversity. i feel it is a strength, it allows us to be individuals.”

“it has one goal, which is to bridge the gap between our people and the people in america. the target is to build an anchor where the nigerians can feel their identity and at the same time become more connected to the chicago scene. the problem that we have with our children is that either our children don't have an understanding of the nigerian culture or an understanding of the american culture. the focus is on children through adolescence. the adults get to benefit from the network."

“we started with story-telling. we are telling the children the stories that our families have told for generations. each story has a moral, an idea that it teaches the children. the children learn the moral. they also learn more about their own heritage. they will appreciate their heritage. they will realize that they have to work hard, too, to achieve progress.”

with more than 15,000 nigerians in chicago today, the potential is very great. fidelis umeh said that “the vision of enumbra is that the nigerian community will bring the traits that are valued in their heritage as they join the american society. they will in fact be able to enrich the american culture.”
