Read the passage from chapter 10 of Animal Farm.Somehow it seemed as though the farm had grown richer without making the animals themselves any richer—except, of course, for the pigs and the dogs. Perhaps this was partly because there were so many pigs and so many dogs. It was not that these creatures did not work, after their fashion. There was, as Squealer was never tired of explaining, endless work in the supervision and organisation of the farm. Much of this work was of a kind that the other animals were too ignorant to understand.
Answer
A
Leaders should not be trusted.
B
Ideals can become mocked in practice.
C
Indifference can lead to corrupt governments.
D
Equality applies to all social classes.
Explanation
The farm seems to grow richer, but only the pigs and dogs become richer themselves. Squealer justifies this inequality by claiming that the pigs’ supervision and organisation are work the other animals cannot understand. This shows how the farm’s ideal of equality is twisted in practice, so the best choice is “Ideals can become mocked in practice.”
