Answer:

A. realistic. The tone reveals that, universally, humankind is perseverant and will do what it takes to survive.

Explanation:

The tone that correctly identifies and reveals the universal theme is option A as it is realistic and reveals that humans will persevere even in the face of difficult times and will do anything to survive.

This is shown by the attempts by Phong Dinh to leave Vietnam by boat and being unsuccessful 25 times as the paid boatmen never showed up.

The will to survive and succeed was shown when his eldest child Van Dinh managed to finally leave on a boat after six years.

Explanation:

Napoleon restricts his public appearances further to about once a month. He is said to eat separately from the other pigs, using the fine china. He also decrees that the gun be fired every year on his birthday. The animals now call Napoleon “our Leader, Comrade Napoleon.” Just as the animals attribute all misfortunes to Snowball, they now attribute all success and luck to Napoleon.

-------

Now, they were fed up with the dictatorship of their human master, and the animals of Animal Farm overthrew him and attempted to run the farm by themselves. Their original intentions were to value equality and carry on without the evil vices of human beings. The pigs were considered the most intellectual of the farm animals because they could read, write, and organize. The other animals became dependent upon the pigs since they organized the meetings, schedules, councils, laws, and responsibilities. The animals' dependence upon the pigs gave the pigs power.
