What best explains why animal farm is an example of a fable?
the characters and action represent abstract ideas and generalities.
the author uses irony to poke fun at political figures and institutions.
the animals are endowed with human characteristics and motivations.
the characters and action represent real-life historical figures and events.

The answer is: The animals are endowed with human characteristics and motivations.

A fable is a story in which animals are represented as possessing human characteristics and qualities in order to express a point of view, usually of a moral nature. In Animal Farm, Orwell depicts the events that led to the Russian Revolution of 1917 and then to Stalinism by making use of certain animal characters. Orwell was a harsh critic of any kind of authoritarianism, which, under Stalin, he believed Russia had fallen under this category.  

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
