Explanation:
The question is not complete since it does not provide the necessary information to be answered. Here is the complete question:
Read the excerpt from Animal Farm.
As winter drew on, Mollie became more and more troublesome. She was late for work every morning and excused herself by saying that she had overslept, and she complained of mysterious pains, although her appetite was excellent. On every kind of pretext, she would run away from work and go to the drinking pool, where she would stand foolishly gazing at her own reflection in the water. But there were also rumours of something more serious. One day, as Mollie strolled blithely into the yard, flirting her long tail and chewing at a stalk of hay, Clover took her aside.
"Mollie,” she said, "I have something very serious to say to you. This morning I saw you looking over the hedge that divides Animal Farm from Foxwood. One of Mr. Pilkington's men was standing on the other side of the hedge. And—I was a long way away, but I am almost certain I saw this—he was talking to you and you were allowing him to stroke your nose. What does that mean, Mollie?”
"He didn't! I wasn't! It isn't true!” cried Mollie, beginning to prance about and paw the ground.
"Mollie! Look me in the face. Do you give me your word of honour that that man was not stroking your nose?”
"It isn't true!” repeated Mollie, but she could not look Clover in the face, and the next moment she took to her heels and galloped away into the field.
A thought struck Clover. Without saying anything to the others, she went to Mollie's stall and turned over the straw with her hoof. Hidden under the straw was a little pile of lump sugar and several bunches of ribbon of different colours.
Three days later Mollie disappeared. For some weeks nothing was known of her whereabouts, then the pigeons reported that they had seen her on the other side of Willingdon. She was between the shafts of a smart dogcart painted red and black, which was standing outside a public-house. A fat red-faced man in check breeches and gaiters, who looked like a publican, was stroking her nose and feeding her with sugar. Her coat was newly clipped and she wore a scarlet ribbon round her forelock. She appeared to be enjoying herself, so the pigeons said. None of the animals ever mentioned Mollie again.
What conflicts are presented in this excerpt? Select THREE options.
-Mollie is in conflict with herself because she wants to leave the farm.
-Mollie is in conflict with Clover because Clover sees Mollie with the farmer.
-Mollie is in conflict with the farmer because he wants her to live on his farm.
-Mollie is in conflict with the farm because she does not like her living conditions.
-Mollie is in conflict with nature because she is cold and suffering from an illness.
This excerpt of Animal Farm shows how Mollie dreams about having a different life, in a different place where she would feel more satisfied with herself, and as the story keeps advancing she develops more conflicts not only with herself for wanting to live but with everything and everyone in the farm because of the hardness of accepting her own wishes.
