I think the part where Rainsford mentions that he is not a murderer, he is implying that he thinks the general is a murderer, and not a hunter but I am not 100% sure since I read this book two years ago. Hope this helped a bit.
Answer: On Animal Farm there is a pig named Napoleon who took power of the farm after the revolution and became a ruthless dictator, gaining power in three different ways. The first method of power being violence and force. This was first displayed when the pig, Snowball, was chased off the farm by Napoleon’s guards just because he had opposed Napoleon. “At first, no one had been able to imagine where these creatures came from, but the problem was soon solved: they were the puppies whom Napoleon had taken away from their mothers and reared privately.”(Orwell 53) This quote shows how similar the dogs/guards and Napoleon are to Stalin and the Secret police during the Soviet Union. After Napoleon had chased the cunning Snowball off of the farm, he uncontestedly took power of the farm and became a dictator. All the animals were shocked at Napoleon’s actions but were too afraid to speak up because of the intimidating dogs. Later on in the book, whenever there was an outcry or questioning of power, Napoleon immediately sent his guard dogs over and all they had to do was growl and the animals would quiet down and probably never speak up again. The dogs were savage and very violent, sometimes killing animals on the farm.

Explanation:
So, here we are given five meanings of the word strike.
To find out which ones are used in paragraph, we need to study the context of sentences.
In the first sentence, we see that Judd left his town and headed out to Tacoma, probably in search for work, better life or new opportunities. Whatever the cause may be, the most appropriate definition would be "to move out or away in some direction or toward some goal".
Next, we find the word strike in describing factory workers' plans. They were probably dissatisfied with their working conditions or salary, so they decided to organize a work stoppage as a sign of protest.
Finally, we see this word again in the end of a paragraph when Judd uses a metaphor to compare life with baseball. The use of baseball terminology suggests that the best definition for this word is "In baseball, a pitch missed by a batter".
Why did the writer go to the dairy farm?
I would say cognitive, since being word conscious, or more aware of word choice involves both affective (the emotions or how a word affects the reader) and cognitive (thoughts and memories the reader relates to a word) stances.
