XIII. THE GRAY AND THE TV
Despite the miniaturization of electronics, televisions are still wide, heavy and clunky furniture. The main problem has been to build a flat kinescope, and this has not been solved with the cathode ray tubes commonly used. For several years it was thought to build a kinescope with thousands of plasma lights, but the problem is that an image was achieved without shades or degrees of brightness: the gray corresponded to a half-off light ... and that could not be. One way out of this difficulty is for the light bulbs to turn on intermittently, so that the brightness is proportional to the time spent on, as demonstrated in research by the Hitachi company of Japan and the University of Illinois.

Read the passage from animal farm. "that was part of the arrangement! " cried squealer. "jones's shot only grazed him. i could show you this in his own writing, if you were able to read it. the plot was for snowball, at the critical moment, to give the signal for flight and leave the field to the enemy. and he very nearly succeeded—i will even say, comrades, he would have succeeded if it had not been for our heroic leader, comrade napoleon. do you not remember how, just at the moment when jones and his men had got inside the yard, snowball suddenly turned and fled, and many animals followed him? and do you not remember, too, that it was just at that moment, when panic was spreading and all seemed lost, that comrade napoleon sprang forward with a cry of 'death to humanity! ' and sank his teeth in jones's leg? surely you remember that, comrades? " exclaimed squealer, frisking from side to side. now when squealer described the scene so graphically, it seemed to the animals that they did remember it. at any rate, they remembered that at the critical moment of the battle snowball had turned to flee. but boxer was still a little uneasy. how does the characterization of squealer support the author’s purpose? squealer's dramatic accusations draw parallels between him and stalin’s propagandists. squealer's uncertainty shows that he is not a reliable ally of napoleon and is ineffective with messaging. squealer's ability to get the animals to listen to him shows that any animal can rise to be a leader in time. squealer's humble interactions with the animals reflect the importance of equality and cooperation.
