What was most likely orwell's purpose for writing this
passage?
read the passage from animal farm.
as clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with
tears. if she could have spoken her thoughts, it would
have been to say that this was not what they had aimed
at when they had set themselves years ago to work for
the overthrow of the human race. these scenes of terror
and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to
on that night when old major first stirred them to rebellion.
if she herself had had any picture of the future, it had
been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the
whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity,
the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the
lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of
major's speech. instead-she did not know why-they
had come to a time when no one dared speak his mind,
when fierce, growling dogs roamed everywhere, and
when you had to watch your comrades torn to pieces after
onfessing to shocking crimes. there was no thought of
o to show that clover is more sensitive to violence than
the others
o to remind readers of major's speech and the original
rebellion
to present napoleon as a cruel leader unworthy of the
animals' support
o to represent misled followers and their dashed hopes
for better lives
