Which two lines in this excerpt from Guy de Maupassant's short story "Boule de Sulf" show that relations between most French and German people remained friendly despite the war?
At the end of a short time, once the first terror had subsided, calm was again restored. In many houses thg. Prussian officer ate at the same
table with the family. He was often well-bred, and, out of politeness, expressed sympathy with France and repugnance at being compelled to
take part in the war. This sentiment was received with gratitude; besides, his protection might be needful some day or other. By the exercise of
tact the number of men quartered in one's house might be reduced; and why should one provoke the hostility of a person on whom one's whole
welfare depended? Such conduct would savor less of bravery than of fool- hardiness. And foolhardiness is no longer a falling of the citizens of
Rouen as it was in the days when their city earned renown by its herolc defenses. Last of all-final argument based on the national politeness-
the folk of Rouen sald to one another that it was only right to be civil in one's own house, provided there was no public exhibition of familiarity
with the foreigner. Out of doors, therefore, citizen and soldier did not know each other, but in the house both chatted freely, and each evening
the German remained a little longer warming himself at the hospitable hearth.

Read the passage from animal farm. one sunday morning squealer announced that the hens, who had just come in to lay again, must surrender their eggs. napoleon had accepted, through whymper, a contract for four hundred eggs a week. the price of these would pay for enough grain and meal to keep the farm going till summer came on and conditions were easier. when the hens heard this, they raised a terrible outcry. they had been warned earlier that this sacrifice might be necessary, but had not believed that it would really happen. they were just getting their clutches ready for the spring sitting, and they protested that to take the eggs away now was murder. for the first time since the expulsion of jones, there was something resembling a rebellion. led by three young black minorca pullets, the hens made a determined effort to thwart napoleon's wishes. their method was to fly up to the rafters and there lay their eggs, which smashed to pieces on the floor. napoleon acted swiftly and ruthlessly. he ordered the hens' rations to be stopped, and decreed that any animal giving so much as a grain of corn to a hen should be punished by death. the dogs saw to it that these orders were carried out. for five days the hens held out, then they capitulated and went back to their nesting boxes. nine hens had died in the meantime. their bodies were buried in the orchard, and it was given out that they had died of coccidiosis. whymper heard nothing of this affair, and the eggs were duly delivered, a grocer's van driving up to the farm once a week to take them away. which detail from the passage supports the claim that this is an allegory for the great purge? the hens holding out for five days but capitulating the eggs being delivered to the grocer the protesting hens being intentionally starved coccidiosis spreading on the farm
