Which term describes the reporter's activity in this story?

I think that the term that describes the reporter's activity in this story is A: Gatekeeping.

Explanation:

The reporter's job, according to this excerpt, is to keep an eye on new facts about different subjects in order to inform the readers about them. In this case, she is aware of a new scientific study on tool use in Armenian box turtles and she writes about it in an article that her boss asks her to make shorter. So, the word that best describes her activity is gatekeeping beacuse she has to be very aware of the new things that may interest the society.

the excerpt from chapter 2 of "animal farm", by george orwell that is an example of foreshadowing is "these three (snowball, napoleon, and squealer) had elaborated old major's teachings into a complete system of thought to which they gave the name of animalism." animal farm is an allegory of how czarist russia developed into communist russia with all its corruption. old major's teachings represent marx's theories turned into communism, animalism, by the three pigs. this foreshadows the oppression and corruption that will follow this revolt.
