Test 3

1/4

Is this statement TRUE or FALSE? The contruction of the windmill symbolizes the construction of the Grand Kremlin Palace.

True

False

Correct!

The construction of the windmill likely symbolizes an idea rather than an actual building.

The construction of the windmill represents Stalin's Five Years Plan. The Five Years Plan was a set of economic policies aimed at making Russia a classless society. However, this came at the cost of everyday Russians, much like the windmill cost the working animals on Animal Farm.

Test 3

2/4

Is this statement TRUE or FALSE? England and Germany are represented in this novel by Mr. Pilkington and Mr. Frederick, respectively.

False

True

These guys are such a pain!

Correct!

Mr. Pilkington represents England and Mr. Frederick represents Germany.

Toward the end of the novella, Mr. Pilkington jokes with Napolean by saying, "If you have your lower animals to contend with... we have our lower classes!" The fact that Mr. Pilkington hangs out with Napolean in the first place says something about how Orwell felt about English relations with Russia at the time. Furthermore, this dialogue indicates that Mr. Pilkington--and therefore England--has lower classes that are comparable to the lower animals on Animal Farm (Stalin's Russia). Yikes.

Yep!

Four legs good, two legs bad

Originally, this was the simple expression that the pigs used to help all animals understand that animals were good, but humans were bad. The longer version is that those with four legs, or have wings, are friends.
