Within a few weeks Snowball's plans for the windmill were fully worked out. The mechanical details came mostly from three books

which had belonged to Mr. Jones—"One Thousand Useful Things to Do About the House," "Every Man His Own Bricklayer," and "Electricity for Beginners." Snowball used as his study a shed which had once been used for incubators and had a smooth wooden floor, suitable for drawing on. He was closeted there for hours at a time. With his books held open by a stone, and with a piece of chalk gripped between the knuckles of his trotter, he would move rapidly to and fro, drawing in line after line and uttering little whimpers of excitement. Gradually the plans grew into a complicated mass of cranks and cog-wheels, covering more than half the floor, which the other animals found completely unintelligible but very impressive. All of them came to look at Snowball's drawings at least once a day. Even the hens and ducks came, and were at pains not to tread on the chalk marks. Only Napoleon held aloof. He had declared himself against the windmill from the start. One day, however, he arrived unexpectedly to examine the plans. He walked heavily round the shed, looked closely at every detail of the plans and snuffed at them once or twice, then stood for a little while contemplating them out of the corner of his eye; then suddenly he lifted his leg, urinated over the plans, and walked out without uttering a word.
What is most likely Orwell's purpose for writing this passage?

to demonstrate that Snowball is more creative than Napoleon
to illustrate the power struggle that Napoleon will likely win
to reveal Napoleon's real feelings about plans for the windmill
to show the interest of the rest of the farm in Snowball’s windmill

Answer:

To me the best answer sounds like D)

To show the interest of the rest of the farm in Snowball's windmill

Explanation:

I think this because it says that the other animals all come by once in a while. The passage also states that the chickens and the ducks carefully looked at the plans trying their best to not walk on the plans or leave a mark.

Answer:

3. The most important idea.

Explanation:

The central idea of any passage or text is the most important point or topic that the passage or text is talking about. It states the purpose of the whole text or passage.

The central idea is not the same as the main topic. The main topic is the topic that the text but the central idea is the main idea of what the text or passage or paragraph is about.

For instance, in a passage about birds, the main topic is "birds" but the central idea can be about how birds are, or how they help the environment, or how they migrate from one place to another, depending on the passage.

Thus, the correct answer is option 3.
