How does Orwell use satire to support his purpose in this passage?
katrin [286]

Answer: He uses exaggeration to make communism appear too simplistic.

Explanation:

<em>Animal farm</em> is Orwell's allegorical novel about a group of animals that rebel against their human farmer. In its essence, this novel is a satirical story against the Soviet Union.

Satire is a genre in literature in which the author employs exaggeration, irony and humor to criticize people and their actions, often in relation to political issues.

For example, Orwell exaggerates with the stupidity of the animals. When Boxer is sent to a slaughter house and brutally murdered, Squealer lies to them by saying that he went to a hospital. Although the animals saw the van, they believed what he said. In this way, Orwell demonstrates the lack of judgement present in the Russian society.

In this light, the correct answer would be that Orwell uses exaggeration to make communism appear too simplistic.

den301095 [7]

From the options above the one with strongest connotation to replace one poor word would be: (C) Miserable

Speech is not innocent and words are sometimes, consciously or unconsciously, charged with an interpretation different from what is said. In this miserable case it could be taken in a derogatory way or simply as a person who is having a bad time and being very sad feels miserable. Although surely, there could have some other interpretation of the word.
