Question

Read the passage from Animal Farm. The other animals understood how to vote, but could never think of any resolutions of their own. Snowball and Napoleon were by far the most active in the debates. But it was noticed that these two were never in agreement: whatever suggestion either of them made, the other could be counted on to oppose it. Even when it was resolved—a thing no one could object to in itself—to set aside the small paddock behind the orchard as a home of rest for animals who were past work, there was a stormy debate over the correct retiring age for each class of animal. The Meeting always ended with the singing of "Beasts of England," and the afternoon was given up to recreation. Which detail best supports the central idea that Snowball and Napoleon are fighting for power? “The other animals understood how to vote, but could never think of any resolutions of their own.” “Even when it was resolved—a thing no one could object to in itself . . .” “Whatever suggestion either of them made, the other could be counted on to oppose it.” “The Meeting always ended with the singing of ‘Beasts of England,’ and the afternoon was given up to recreation.”
