Animal Farm, Part 5: Motivation and Values

Question 3 • EN471 Sophomore English A

Read the excerpt from chapter 6 of Animal Farm.It was about this time that the pigs suddenly moved into the farmhouse and took up their residence there. Again the animals seemed to remember that a resolution against this had been passed in the early days, and again Squealer was able to convince them that this was not the case. It was absolutely necessary, he said, that the pigs, who were the brains of the farm, should have a quiet place to work in.

Answer
A
He wants to keep the other animals submissive.
B
He wants to get the pigs in trouble.
C
He wants the other animals to be angry.
D
He wants to remain calm and focused.

Explanation

Squealer says the pigs need a quiet place because they are “the brains of the farm,” making their move into the farmhouse sound necessary. This is propaganda: he persuades the other animals to accept the pigs’ special privileges rather than question them. That helps keep the animals submissive, so choice A is correct.
