Respuesta :

Read the passage from Animal Farm.

Within a few weeks Snowball's plans for the windmill were fully worked out. The mechanical details came mostly from three books which had belonged to Mr. Jones—"One Thousand Useful Things to Do About the House," "Every Man His Own Bricklayer," and "Electricity for Beginners." Snowball used as his study a shed which had once been used for incubators and had a smooth wooden floor, suitable for drawing on. He was closeted there for hours at a time. With his books held open by a stone, and with a piece of chalk gripped between the knuckles of his trotter, he would move rapidly to and fro, drawing in line after line and uttering little whimpers of excitement. Gradually the plans grew into a complicated mass of cranks and cog-wheels, covering more than half the floor, which the other animals found completely unintelligible but very impressive. All of them came to look at Snowball's drawings at least once a day. Even the hens and ducks came, and were at pains not to tread on the chalk marks. Only Napoleon held aloof. He had declared himself against the windmill from the start. One day, however, he arrived unexpectedly to examine the plans. He walked heavily round the shed, looked closely at every detail of the plans and snuffed at them once or twice, then stood for a little while contemplating them out of the corner of his eye; then suddenly he lifted his leg, urinated over the plans, and walked out without uttering a word.

to show the interest of the rest of the farm in Snowball’s windmill

Answer:

to illustrate the power struggle that Napoleon will likely win

Explanation:

The most likely reason George Orwell wrote this passage is to illustrate the power struggle of which Napoleon was favorite to win.

Napoleon showed clear signs of defiance when he urinated and ruined Snowball's windmill plans because Snowball opposed him.

This characterised Napoleon's brutal way of dealing with enemies or opposition. He was also noted to treat with disdain and trample upon the ideas of others.

The most likely purpose George Orwell had for writing the passage of "Animal Farm" is the following:

B. To illustrate the power struggle that Napoleon will likely win.

  • In "Animal Farm," both Napoleon and Snowball are pigs who are put in charge of the farm due to their being the most intelligent animals.
  • The other animals trust them to manage things and make Animal Farm a place where all animals are treated equally and fairly.
  • Snowball is studying and making plans for the construction of a windmill, which will make the animals' lives easier.
  • However, Napoleon has been against the windmill since the beginning.
  • The passage we are analyzing here shows that Napoleon not only despises Snowball's plans, but that will likely do something about them.
  • The fact that he urinates on the plans serves as foreshadowing - it shows what will happen in the future.
  • In fact, Napoleon will kick Snowball out and take over the plans to build the mill.
