1052-59Questions on the whole novel60-61Sample Question  \nMr Jones owns Manor Farm.He is a lazy drunkardwho takes little care of the farm or the animals.  \nOne night the animals are called to the barn by OldMajor,the oldest and wisest of the pigs.He tells themof a dream he has had,of an Earth without Man,whereanimals live happily together.  \nOld Major dies and the pigs call his ideas of animals living together as equals,without Man,\"Animalism.\"  \nOne night Mr Jones is too drunk to feed the animals so they rebel and take overManor Farm.They run the farm themselves,follow their Seven Commandments,and call the farm“Animal Farm.”  \nMr Jones tries to win back the farm but the animals beathim.The pigs become leaders and the animals do not mindworking hard because it is for them all equally not for Man.  \nThe pigs,because they areintelligent,  grow more  \ngreedy and led by Napoleon they eventuallybecome just like Man.They use the other animalsin exactly the same way that Mr Jones did.At theend of the story,the pigs have become just as badas the humans they had fought against.  \n# PARALLELS WITH RUSSIA\n\nA German called Karl Marx published TheManifesto of the Communist Party in 1848,adocument which stated the aims of a newpolitical outlook.He stated that the only way toend the exploitation [abuse]of the people was tochange their living and working conditions.  \nThe leader of Russia,Tsar Nicholas Il,was a poor ruler andmany of his people were starving or worked in very dangerousconditions.The people were very unhappy with their lives sothey started rioting which resulted in many of them beingkilled.  \nThe start of the First World War in 1914 made thesuffering of the Russian people even worse.Manysoldiers were killed and the people were starving.  \nBy March 1917 the Russian people refused to carry onwith the war.The Tsar was removed as leader and the  \npeople set up “Soviets”which were councils of people who took part in ruling thecountry.  \nWhen the war did not end,twocommunists,Lenin and Trotsky,returnedfrom exile to lead another rebellion called“The Bolshevik Revolution.”Lenin cameinto power and he ended the war withGermany and gave land to the people.  \nThe Bolsheviks were later attacked by France,Germany and England who wantedTsar Nicholas ll back in power but Trotsky's clever leadership of the Red Armyforced the invaders out in 1921.  \nLenin killed many people who were against the Bolsheviks.He set up his secret police,the“Cheka”to help him preventanyone from opposing him  \nIn January 1924 Lenin died.In the struggle for leadership Trotsky was forced toleave the country and was murdered in Mexico.  \nJ","cbCaijlqaC2zOfUY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijlqaC2zOfUY","pdf",3230718,68,"English","# Introduction\n# Story
