Read the excerpt from animal farm and the passage on the history of the soviet union. napoleon, with the dogs following him, now mounted on to the raised portion of the floor where major had previously stood to deliver his speech. he announced that from now on the sunday-morning meetings would come to an end. they were unnecessary, he said, and wasted time. in future all questions relating to the working of the farm would be settled by a special committee of pigs, presided over by himself. these would meet in private and afterwards communicate their decisions to the others. the animals would still assemble on sunday mornings to salute the flag, sing "beasts of england," and receive their orders for the week; but there would be no more debates. in spite of the shock that snowball's expulsion had given them, the animals were dismayed by this announcement. several of them would have protested if they could have found the right arguments. this tradition of tight centralization, with decision-making concentrated at the highest party levels, reached new dimensions under joseph stalin. . there was little input from below. the party elite determined the goals of the state and the means of achieving them in almost complete isolation from the people. they believed that the interests of the individual were to be sacrificed to those of the state, which was advancing a sacred social task. stalin's "revolution from above” sought to build socialism by means of forced collectivization and industrialization, programs that entailed tremendous human suffering and loss of life. how does the conflict in the animal farm excerpt relate to the events in the historical passage? a.)*napoleon says that he and a special committee will make all the decisions, just as stalin and his highest party members made all the decisions. b.)*the animals are unhappy with napoleon’s leadership style and want to rebel, just as the russian people under stalin wanted to rebel. c.)*napoleon announces that he will bring together all the farms so that all the work and rewards are shared, just as stalin took over all the farms for the state. d.)*the animals have to meet on sundays to show their commitment to napoleon, just as the people had to set sundays aside in honor of stalin.
