Chapter 5 Animal Farm Comprehension
Animal Farm Comprehension and Analysis- Chapter-5

Section A: Short Answers:

1. The pigs made all of the decisions on the farm policy because they were the smartest on the farm. 2. Snowball and Napoleon are always at odds with each other. 3. Three examples that show that they were always odds with each other was that napoleon was more demanding and snowball only wanted happiness. If one of them suggested sowing a bigger acreage with barely, the other was certain to demand a bigger acreage of oats, and if one of them said that such and such a field was just right for cabbages, the other would declare that it was useless for anything except roots. 4. Snowball was famous for his brilliant speeches. 5. The sheep’s mantra was “four legs good, two legs bad”. 6. At the end of the chapter boxer’s mantra became ‘napoleon is always right’ in addition to the other motto ‘I will work harder’. 7. Two improvements snowball had for animal farm was about field drains, silage, and basic slag, and had worked out a complicated scheme for all the animals to drop their dung directly in the fields, at a different spot every day, to save the labor of cartage. 8. Napoleon urinated on snowballs plans to undermine him. 9. To assist him with the mechanical designs of the windmill snowball used three books which had belonged to Mr. Jones- One Thousand Useful Things to Do About the House, Everyman His Own Bricklayer, and Electricity for Beginners. 10. Napoleons argument against the building of the wind mill was that he believed that the great need of the movement was to increase food production and that if they wasted time on the windmill they would all starve to death. 11. Some proof of the fact that some of the animals had no minds of their own was because they couldn’t make up their minds which was right; they always found themselves in agreement with the one who was speaking at the moment. 12. The dogs represent the NKVD and more

    Snowball is very inventive, he strives to make new innovations on the farm. For example, “He talked learnedly about field drains, silage, and basic slag, and had worked out a complicated scheme for all the animals to drop their dung directly in the fields, at a different spot every day, to save the labour of cartage.” Snowball comes up with these schemes by himself and presents them to the animals. He has read books…

    Snowball was a much better leader than Napoleon because he enforced education whereas Napoleon thought it was unnecessary. Education is the key to nearly everything and if the animals could read and write they would be able to help out more on the farm and they would get a better understanding of what is going on. They could read books on how to run a farm and on the world as well and write things to other animals or people. The animals were learning and some could start writing and reading words. Other animals like Boxer could only say 5 letters of the alphabet which night not seem like much but…

    Orwell contrasts Napoleon and Snowball in a way that forces them to have contradictory ideas. Snowball wants pure communism where everyone benefits equally, whereas on the other hand Napoleon prefers power. Snowball invents all of the ideas and arranging the animals into committees to help the farm in the best way possible. An example of this was the idea of building a windmill which would make 'jobs around the farm a lot easier, as well as warming the animal's stalls in the winter', with the introduction of electricity. Throughout the committee…

    This passage reminds of the scene in Animal Farm where Benjamin is trying to save Boxer from going on the van that is taking him to the glue factory. Therefore, Benjamin was shouting at Boxer who was already on the van, just like how Liesel runs down to Munich Street to see the Max for the last time. While the bystanders in this passage are like the other animals in Animal Farm who didn’t help Benjamin at all and just stood there to watch the van drive by. All in all these text allows me to visualize the scene better and feel that Liesel is heartbroken as her best friend is being taken away. Likewise Benjamin is devastated when he realizes that he would not be able to see his best friend, Boxer ever again.…

    In Animal Farm by George Orwell there are two key chapters that can be compared. In chapter two it is the morning after the rebellion and the animals are overjoyed. “They woke at dawn” shows the beginning of a new day, this creates a sense of hope and represents the start of their new life without humans. However in chapter seven it is the night of the slaughters and the reader can see the caparison between the time of day when Orwell says “gilded by the level rays of the sun” This shows the sun is setting on Animals Farm and represents the end of their hopes and dreams. There is also a difference between Orwell’s word choice in both chapters, in chapter two the animals “raced” “rushed” and “hurled” portraying their excitement, enthusiasm and…

    “At the Meetings Snowball often won over the majority by his brilliant speeches, but Napoleon was better at canvassing support for himself in between times. He was especially successful with the sheep. Of late the sheep had taken to bleating "Four legs good, two legs bad" both in and out of season, and they often interrupted the Meeting with this. It was noticed that they were especially liable to break into "Four legs good, two legs bad" at crucial moments in Snowball's speeches. (5.8)”…
