Answer:
What the reader should look for while considering a character's goals are:
A. motives for their actions.
Explanation:
An allegory is a type of story that serves the purpose of conveying a bigger message or meaning than the story itself. The characters and events represent real-life people and occurrences or convey a moral lesson.
<u>A famous example of an allegory is George Orwell's "Animal Farm". When analyzing the characters' goals in this allegory, readers should look for the characters' motives for their actions. For instance, the pigs represent the Soviet leaders in Russia. Readers can tell that the motives for their actions are greed and arrogance. The pigs lie, force the other animals to work, and even kill, all to achieve their goals of living comfortably and remaining in power.</u>
George Orwell was a famous British writer and critic (1903 - 1950).
