Animal Farm, Part 7: Rhetoric

Question 143596 • FL-1001340-English 2 Sem 1 - Flex

Which statement best summarizes the overall theme of chapters 8 and 9?

Answer
A
All revolutions result in a government that is more oppressive, totalitarian, and deadly than the one that was overthrown.
B
Dictators, who at first promote virtuous ideals, become the worst enemies of the people whose lives they claim to improve.
C
Napoleon is a power-hungry dictator who masks all of his actions with the excuse that they are done for the betterment of the farm.
D
The animals continue to work hard for Napoleon because they fear what might happen to them if they disobey his orders.

Explanation

In chapters 8 and 9, Napoleon uses power for his own benefit while claiming his decisions serve the farm. The animals face worsening conditions, and the ideals that supposedly guided the rebellion are betrayed. This supports the broader theme that leaders who claim to help the people can become their worst enemies; choice C describes Napoleon specifically, but B better states the overall theme.
