Why does Napoleon try to fool Whymper about the conditions on Animal Farm? What are two examples of ways that they try to do thi
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Napoleon gets the wily lawyer Mr. Whymper to spread propaganda around the local area about how incredibly well the farm is doing under his leadership. It's all a complete lie, of course; life on the farm is characterized by tyranny, bloodshed, and chronic food shortages, but Napoleon wants Whymper to believe that everything's on the up and the up and that the farm has never been more successful.

He wants him to believe this because he's taken the decision to trade with humans in the neighboring farms and villages. If the humans find out about the real conditions on the farm, then they'll try to take advantage of the situation, insisting on paying a lower price for the goods that Napoleon plans to trade with them. They might even go one stage further and use the farm's economic weakness as an excuse to mount a full-scale invasion and ended Napoleon's rule. That's the last thing the power-hungry pig wants, so he's keen to make sure that his false picture of reality is the only one that the outside world will ever get to see.

I came home to find the entire kitchen floor covered in scraps of sock:
evablogger [386]

Answer:

D. Jake tore up the main character's socks.

Explanation:

Well, all of the other answers do not make sense.

B does not make sense beacause Jake probably also eats other things and nothing in the passage says he only eats socks.

C does not make sense because nothing in the passage says Jake is the main chaecters brother.

A and D were probably the answers you were confused with.

A would kinda make sense but it is quite obvious that in the passage they do not focus on the fact that Jake brought the socks to the kitchen at all.

They focus on the fact Jake broke the sock.

So D would be a reasonable explanation and is basically the only one that makes sense.

That is my answer!
