Read the excerpt from the poem "barbara frietchie.” a shade of sadness, a blush of shame, over the face of the leader came; the nobler nature within him stirred to life at that woman’s deed and word: "who touches a hair of yon gray head dies like a dog! march on! ” he said. which is the most likely reason that jackson orders his men to not hurt barbara? he is worried that barbara will retaliate against them. he wants barbara to continue spreading her message. he realizes that barbara is an innocent woman. he wants to move through the town without distraction.

The answer is C: He realizes that Barbara is an innocent woman.

(just took the quiz)

The answer is C.

Explanation: Because I got it right.

the correct answer is the first option "the bolkshevik revolution". the passage makes reference to many of important events that occured in the revolution, such as the assemblies, in this case the animals are gathered in an assembly after a protest, the murder of fellow partners, the speeches given by the leader of the revolution, among other aspects. the last choice is possible, but in this passage in particular it is not emphasized the fight between the characters, that is the two pigs, that represent lenin and stallin.

it would be b. broad.

hope this buddy!

mark me brainliest!
