The sentence is drawing a parallel between the two parties' reasons for going to war. Each of them is associated with a verb: one with "survive," the other with "perish." They are the two antonyms.
Antonyms are words which have opposite meanings. <em>Survive </em>means to contine living, and <em>perish </em>means to stop living.
What Lincoln meant by using this antonym-based parallelism is that the Confederacy fought to end the exisiting nation (meaning, to secede from the North and create a new nation), while the Union fought to keep the nation alive by preventing it from splitting.

Answer:
Orwell uses satire in this passage to:
c) to expose and condemn the corruption and character flaws of the pigs
Explanation:
"Animal Farm" is an allegorical novella by George Orwell. It was written as a criticism of the Soviet regime to which Russia was subjected by Stalin. Orwell himself was a democratic-socialist.
The excerpt we are analyzing here was taken from the final chapter of the book. It portrays a meeting between the pigs from Animal Farm and Mr. Pilkington. <u>The animals from the farm tried to establish a fair and equal society after expelling their human owner. However, after becoming the leaders of the new society, the pigs realized their position gave them advantages. Soon, they became more and more similar to humans. They began to exploit the other animals, creating a clear distinction between themselves and the others. They also began to trade with the very humans they once despised. In this excerpt, Pilkington is complimenting the pigs on the way they treat the animals that are below them in social hierarchy. The fact that a corrupt human is complimenting the pigs serves to expose the pigs' corruption and character flaws.</u>
