Which statement best explains why the animals readily accept the increased workload?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

They believe that all of their work benefits the community of animals and ultimately is for the best.

Explanation:

George Orwell's "Animal Farm" is an allegorical play showing how a group of farm animals rebelled against their human master to form their own government. The play deals with themes of greed, a struggle for power, hierarchy, corruption, equality, etc.

In Chapter V, Napoleon declared his intention to build the windmill which meant everyone must put in extra work. This meant that they will have to do their usual work added to the workload of constructing the windmill. But the animals accepted that without any complaint. Chapter VI starts with the statement<em> "All that year the animals worked like slaves. But they were happy in their work; they grudged no effort or sacrifice, well aware that everything that they did was for the benefit of themselves and those of their kind who would come after them, and not for a pack of idle, thieving human beings."</em>

This shows that the animals readily accepted the increased workload because they believed that it is for the benefit of the whole community and their future generations.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

Why do you think fantine uses the statement it is not cowardliness and gluttony that have made me what I am in her appeal to jav
Basile [38]

Answer:

The fact Fantine uses the statement it is not cowardliness and gluttony that has made me what I am in her appeal to Javert is because she was to justify her actions as a desperate act to escape from reality and how it hurt her.

Explanation:

First of all, She is doing that to obtain pity from him. Because she begs him that her reasons have been justified. Also, that she has proofs to back she has not been a bad woman and that even when she watches her clothing she can remember how her clothes always were fit for women of morality. Nevertheless, she used brandy as a scape of reality and that it was necessary to keep living.
