Question

Study the timeline of Russian history, and read the passage from chapter 1 of Animal Farm.

"But is this simply part of the order of Nature? Is it because this land of ours is so poor that it cannot afford a decent life to those who dwell upon it? No, comrades, a thousand times no! The soil of England is fertile, its climate is good, it is capable of affording food in abundance to an enormously greater number of animals than now inhabit it. This single farm of ours would support a dozen horses, twenty cows, hundreds of sheep—and all of them living in a comfort and a dignity that are now almost beyond our imagining."

Which event in Russian history does the sentiment of this passage most point to?

the crowning of Nicholas II, and the bourgeois’ enjoyment of luxuries
the start of World War I, and Russia’s hopes of benefitting from it
the beginning of collectivization, and the idea that all should share in wealth
the Soviet famine, in which so many people died due to poorly planned policies

Answer 1

The answer is the third answer:

"the beginning of collectivization, and the idea that all should share in wealth."

The pigs say that the soil of England is fertile and that the farm could support a bigger number of animals that inhabit the farm now. They also say that all of the animals could live in comfort.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The feeling that this passage provides can be associated with the beginning of collectivization and the idea that everyone must share wealth, as shown in the third answer option.

We can arrive at this answer because:

• In the excerpt shown in the question above, the pigs are showing how the place where they are is full of resources, where all the animals could live in comfort, working together and sharing what they have.
• This speech can be associated with the beginning of the collectivization that took place in the Soviet Union.
• That's because collectivization preached the sharing of resources, where all citizens shared with their peers the resources they had.
• According to Russian rulers, this would be a very promising idea, as Russia was full of resources.
• Thus, if all Russians worked and shared what they had, no one would lack anything and everyone would live comfortably.

However, collectivization did not fulfill these goals, as didn't the ideas of the pigs in "Animal Farm."
