Question

"Either Niu Fen or Zhang Wei told on them. Next morning we were summoned to the office of the school's Revolutionary Committee. The leaders asked us to describe what we had seen and heard." What conclusion can be drawn from the text?

Answer 1

I would conclude that the leaders do not know what we had seen or heard and that they are seeking to get us to divulge anti-revolutionary opinion or behaviors. They may have no reason to suspect such opinion or behavior, but this tactic to arouse distrust and suspicion weakens and divides the masses.

Answer 2

Answer:

As it is used in the passage above, the meaning of told on is "reported."
