Read the following discussion:
JOHN:
I loved Animal Farm. I thought it was a really great
critique of the way patriotism blinds people to the
abuses committed in their names by their leaders. They
think they are doing their patriotic duty, but they are
being taken advantage of.
KARLIN:
I didn't get that at all. I thought it was making a very
specific point about the Cold War.
LASHON:
I think it's speaking more generally about the way
people in power abuse those under them. Are you
saying, Karlin, that you don't think it's still relevant today
just because the Cold War is over?
KARLIN:
I think it can still be relevant, but its primary point is
about the Soviet Union. Look at the class structure of
the book, with the absolute power of those in charge,
and the way the animals just agree to work extra for
less food. They're naïve in the same way Orwell was
saying Soviet citizens were. Don't you think?
MARTA:
I agree that he was making that point, but I think you
have to look more broadly too. His questioning of
power structures was really radical. You can even apply
his ideas to our own society, with the way people vote
against their own interests because their leaders
persuade them to do it. Look at your own government,
Orwell was saying. That's why the book is so powerful.

Read this excerpt from "edward jenner and the history of smallpox and vaccination.” smallpox was introduced to europe sometime between the fifth and seventh centuries and was frequently epidemic during the middle ages. the disease greatly affected the development of western civilization. the first stages of the decline of the roman empire (ad 108) coincided with a large-scale epidemic: the plague of antonine, which accounted for the deaths of almost 7 million people. the arab expansion, the crusades, and the discovery of the west indies all contributed to the spread of the disease. unknown in the new world, smallpox was introduced by the spanish and portuguese conquistadors. the disease decimated the local population and was instrumental in the fall of the empires of the aztecs and the incas. similarly, on the eastern coast of north america, the disease was introduced by the early settlers and led to a decline in the native population. before it reached the new world, smallpox played a role in
