Read the excerpt from chapter 10 of Animal Farm.But the luxuries of which Snowball had once taught the animals to dream, the stalls with electric light and hot and cold water, and the three-day week, were no longer talked about. Napoleon had denounced such ideas as contrary to the spirit of Animalism. The truest happiness, he said, lay in working hard and living frugally.
Answer
A
The text shows that if the animals work harder, they will have luxuries they dreamed of.
B
The text shows that Napoleon’s dreams conflict with the dreams of the animals.
C
The text shows that the animals expected a different outcome than the reality they are facing.
D
The text shows that Snowball and Napoleon never meant to mislead the other animals.
Explanation
Snowball had once encouraged the animals to dream of electric lights, hot and cold water, and a three-day workweek. Now those luxuries are no longer discussed, and Napoleon says happiness comes from hard work and frugal living. This contrast shows that the animals’ expectations did not match the reality they face, so the best answer is “the animals expected a different outcome than the reality they are facing.”
