Read the passage from Animal Farm. Once again it was being put about that all the animals were dying of famine and disease, and
that they were continually fighting among themselves and had resorted to cannibalism and infanticide. Napoleon was well aware of the bad results that might follow if the real facts of the food situation were known, and he decided to make use of Mr. Whymper to spread a contrary impression. Hitherto the animals had had little or no contact with Whymper on his weekly visits: now, however, a few selected animals, mostly sheep, were instructed to remark casually in his hearing that rations had been increased. In addition, Napoleon ordered the almost empty bins in the store-shed to be filled nearly to the brim with sand, which was then covered up with what remained of the grain and meal. On some suitable pretext Whymper was led through the store-shed and allowed to catch a glimpse of the bins. He was deceived, and continued to report to the outside world that there was no food shortage on Animal Farm. What is Orwell's main purpose in this passage?

to show the negative effects of rumors and misinformation on those in leadership roles
to reveal the corruption among many producers, sellers, and buyers of farm products

Explanation:
Napoleon did not want those in the outside that he was incompetent and he therefore prevented the animals to have direct access to Mr Whymper and the made Mr Whymper believe that there was food by filling up the almost empty bins with sand which was the covered up with what remained of the grain and meal
The correct answer is C. The suffix -cy is indicating that the word is a noun, so the meaning should be eithef related to a concrete or abstract thing. The only meaning that can be related to an abstract idea is "the state of being false". Choices B and D refer to ideas tipically expressed by adjectives, as they are qualities. Choice A is the opposite meaning of fallacy.
