    Correct Answer
    A. Napoleon

    • Snowball

    • Squealer

    • Boxer

    Correct Answer
    A. Snowball
    Explanation
    Snowball is the correct answer because the given information mentions Trotsky as a political rival of Stalin, implying that the question is referring to the characters from George Orwell's novel "Animal Farm" which is an allegory of the Russian Revolution. In the novel, Snowball represents Leon Trotsky, who was also a political rival of Joseph Stalin. Trotsky was eventually exiled and assassinated, just like Snowball is chased off the farm and becomes an enemy of the pigs.

    Explanation
    Boxer is the correct answer because in George Orwell's novel "Animal Farm," Boxer is a loyal and hardworking horse who represents the working class. He is portrayed as naive and trusting, always following the principles of Animalism and believing in the ideals of the revolution. Despite his strength and dedication, Boxer is ultimately betrayed and exploited by the pigs in power, symbolizing the exploitation of the working class by the ruling class.

    Lenin/Marx:  Lenin was the leader of a rebel group which took over after Czar Nicholas II abdicated (stepped down).  He based his government on the ideas of Marx which included "national ownership."  When he died, his body was preserved and put on display.

    • Farmer Jones

    • Napoleon

    • Snowball

    • Old Major

    Correct Answer
    A. Old Major
    Explanation
    Old Major is the correct answer because he is the character in George Orwell's novel "Animal Farm" who represents Karl Marx. Old Major is the wise and respected boar who inspires the other animals to rebel against their human oppressors and establish a society based on equality and collective ownership. His ideas and teachings form the basis for Animalism, the fictional ideology in the novel that parallels Marxism. Old Major's death in the story symbolizes the passing of Marx himself.

    • Animal Farm

    • Animalism

    • Socialism

    Correct Answer
    A. Animalism
    Explanation
    Animalism is the correct answer because it refers to the ideology and system of government depicted in the novel "Animal Farm" by George Orwell. In the story, the animals on Manor Farm rebel against their human owner and establish a society based on the principles of Animalism, which advocate for equality and the collective ownership of resources. Animalism can be seen as a representation of communism, as it shares similar ideas of collective ownership and the elimination of social classes.

He uses lies, deceit, and manipulation to control the narrative and maintain the power of the ruling class.
