They had no trouble finding the shorts and the shoes, but the store was out of shin guards, "We expect some in next week," said the clerk.
"That's not much help," said Monica. "Our first game is this Saturday."
"Let's call and see if Hooper's has shin guards," Christa sald. "If they do, we can stop there on our way home. But we should hurry, or they'll
be closed before we can get there."

hey !

animal farm, written by george orwell, is a representation of russia after the revolution that led stalin to take over power.

in this excerpt, the central idea seems to be that the animals (a representation of society), when they believe to be working for a greater good and equality, are obedient and productive. they were convinced that, after expelling the owner (jones) from the farm, they would live in harmony and be fairly treated.

as we know, the pigs become the leaders and grow more selfish and dictatorial with time. in the end, they look and act in a way so similar to humans that it is impossible to tell the difference. the ideals of equality are shattered, and the farm turns out to be worse than it was before. the animals are manipulated with false propaganda and forced to work in order to enrich the pigs.

these have to be in your own words
