Maria was excited that her team won, but she could not help but have empathy for the losing team as she watched them walk slowly to their bus. What is the most likely meaning of the underlined word in the sentence? (1 point) wishing another person well understanding the feelings of others imagining what someone else is thinking hoping others will do better

Having in mind that the underline word is "empathy", the most likely meaning is: understanding the feelings of others.

Explanation:

The word empathy refers to our ability to understand the feelings of others, to be sensitive to their thoughts, experiences and emotions. But, even if we did not know that definition, the context provided in the sentence would be enough to lead us to the correct answer. Maria won. Yet, she observed the losing team as they walked slowly to their bus. Notice how the sentence contrasts those two moments and the feelings Maria had. She was excited "but she could not help but have empathy." Despite her excitement, she was still able to understand how the losing team felt.

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.
