Question

which statement supports the idea that this passage is an allegory for totalitarian propaganda?
the animals agree that they do not wish to see jones back.
the animals do not complain about pigs in power breaking rules.
the animals support the pigs decision to sleep an extra hour.
the animals want the pigs to sleep in the farmhouse beds.

Explanation:

To determine which statement supports the passage as an allegory for totalitarian propaganda, we analyze each option:

• The first option (not wanting Jones back) relates to overthrowing a previous ruler, not totalitarian control.
• The second option (animals not complaining about pigs breaking rules) aligns with totalitarian propaganda: in such systems, the ruling class (pigs) bends rules, and the oppressed (other animals) accept it without protest, mirroring how totalitarian regimes suppress dissent.
• The third option (supporting extra sleep) is a minor privilege, not core to totalitarian propaganda.
• The fourth option (wanting pigs in farmhouse beds) is less about propaganda and more about accommodation, not central to totalitarian control.

Answer:

The animals do not complain about pigs in power breaking rules.
