B.)“After much thought Snowball declared that the Seven Commandments could in effect be reduced to a single maxim, namely: ‘Four legs good, two legs bad.’”
C.)“‘A bird's wing, comrades,’ he said, ‘is an organ of propulsion and not of manipulation. It should therefore be regarded as a leg.’”
D.)“The birds did not understand Snowball's long words, but they accepted his explanation, and all the humbler animals set to work to learn the new maxim by heart.”
E.)“When they had once got it by heart, the sheep developed a great liking for this maxim, and often as they lay in the field they would all start bleating ‘Four legs good, two legs bad!’”
Option A does not show that he can manipulate the other animals since it states that the "stupider animals" were unable to learn the Seven Commandments by heart. Since they can't understand his commandments they would be unable to be manipulated. Option F also doesn't say anything about whether or not the animals understood him, just that if they did the animals would be safe. The other four options all talk about how Snowball summarized the commandments into a single maxim. This then allowed the animals to learn and remember it, thus opening the door for Snowball's manipulation.
The dialogue which is a good example of the author's use of dialogue to build suspense is, “You are rich, respected, admired, beloved; you are happy, as once I was. You are a man to be missed.”
Answer: Option B.
Explanation:
Many a times, authors make use of words or dialogue to create a suspense in the minds of readers, as in it makes a person curious or anxious to known about the uncertainty of what happened or might happen. The dialogue ‘You are rich, respected, admired, beloved; you are happy, as once I was. You are a man to be missed’ is taken from a short story ‘The Cask of Amontillado’ written by Edgar Poe. This dialogue builds suspense in a sense that the words ‘as once I was’ makes a reader anxious about what might have happened in a narrator’s life that he’s no more happy. The dialogue leaves space for uncertainty of the events that took place.
