Answer 2

There are two possibilities for you to solve this question. First you can have a look at a country where there is a regime that is comparable to that of the porks in animal farm. Try to have a look at wikipedia and search for some totalitarian regimes like. Type in "olygarchie" and look for the name of a country, Or type in "totalitarian regime"... than research the countries you find under these keywords. Quickly you will find that there are small groups of people dominating these countries. A minority is supressing the majority. Your teach might like it if you draw a comparison between the government of such a country and the rule of the porks. The second possibility is for you to transfer the message of the novel to a situation in your closer environment. The animal farm is about a few people supressing others. It is a bit like darwin's survival of the fittest. But the strongest person also can't do everything on his own, a physically weaker person might own qualities that the strong guy is lacking. Try think of your community, or school, for sure there are kids who always bully others. Sometimes these bullies are physically strong and very mean to weaker kids. They very often forget, that maybe at the end of the semester, they need the weak students help to pass an exam, because they were so busy missing class. That's when the little one grows powerful... So try to tell a story where you observed that someone supressed somebody else or was mean to him only because he or she was weaker. And that will be a good answer to your teacher's question.

Answer 3

What the teacher is asking in layman's terms is what similiarities/differences can you make between the way the various animals acted(IE The pigs can be seen as a comparison to dictators)and the way humans act in a particular culture(or country if you wish to be more generalized- IE North America COULD be seen as more liberal with human rights than say such some countries in Asia) I emphasize COULD-everyone has an opinion, I'm just giving an example.

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Compare the animals to people, the same way the author did in the book. They act just like humans.

Answer 5

each animal presented in the book represents a certain type of human personality

shouldn't be too hard really, since that question opens many doors - best wishes

Answer 6

Were these animals real, did they live on a real farm. Did they eat animal foods. Did they talk? Just compare them with real live animals.
