Animal Farm, Part 5: Motivation and Values

Question 11 • FL-1001340-English 2 Sem 1 - Flex

What is the best inference about Napoleon’s motivation for blaming Snowball for destroying the windmill?

Answer
A
Napoleon wants to undermine Snowball and maintain control of the farm.
B
Napoleon thinks that the workers did a poor construction job, but he is afraid to say so.
C
Napoleon is correct that Snowball was responsible for the destruction of the windmill.
D
Napoleon knows that storms will occur again, but he does not want to discourage the workers.

Explanation

Napoleon uses Snowball as a scapegoat, accusing him of destroying the windmill even though the storm caused it to collapse. Blaming a rival shifts attention away from Napoleon’s own leadership and encourages the animals to see Snowball as an enemy. This helps Napoleon undermine Snowball and maintain control of the farm.
