Answer 1

After reading the excerpt from "Animal Farm" in which the commandment is changed, we can say we have an example of the following type of satire:

A. Reversal, because the commandment has changed in meaning.

What is reversal?

• The type of satire known as reversal happens when the author changes a situation, inverting the way things would normally be, usually with the purpose of making it absurd.

How is this excerpt an example of reversal?

• Originally, the commandment created by the animals living in Animal Farm was that all animals are equal. That was their aim - to create a society where animals were equal, treated fairly, and able to live freely and happily.

• However, with the new commandment, the situation has changed drastically. The pigs, who are the rulers of the farm, are now behaving like humans. They see themselves as superior to the other animals, and the commandment makes that clear.

• The situation has been so completely reversed that the animals are back to square one, as if they were still subjugated to humans, rather than ruling themselves.

With the information above in mind, we can choose letter A as the best option.
