Shooting An Elephant -Orwell
Write a five-paragraph persuasive essay. Your persuasive technique should be direct, with obvious logic and reasoning. Whether the essay appeals to emotion or to intellect is up to you; however, you will need to use quotations from a source to support your ideas.

You must choose a side and support it fully. You may discuss differing opinions, but you must not waver between the two sides. Show the faults of the opposite opinion, and give sound reasoning to support your argument.

?In the narrative “Shooting an Elephant,” was Orwell justified in killing the elephant? Should he have shot the animal or walked away? Why or why not? Quote from “Shooting an Elephant” as you defend your argument.
