Read the excerpt from chapter 6 of Animal Farm.
Afterwards Squealer made a round of the farm and set the animals’ minds at rest. He assured them that the resolution against engaging in trade and using money had never been passed, or even suggested. It was pure imagination, probably traceable in the beginning to lies circulated by Snowball. A few animals still felt faintly doubtful, but Squealer asked them shrewdly, "Are you certain that this is not something that you have dreamed, comrades?"
What are Squealer’s motivations for mentioning Snowball in this context? Select three options.
He wants to undermine Snowball’s credibility by mentioning him.
He wants to suppress a potential uprising of the animals.
He wants to distract the animals from learning the truth.
He wants to control the other animals by telling the truth.
He wants to prove to the other animals that he is powerful.
