Question

Read the passage from chapter 2 of Animal Farm.

The pigs now revealed that during the past three months they had taught themselves to read and write from an old spelling book which had belonged to Mr. Jones's children and which had been thrown on the rubbish heap.

Which prediction does this passage best support?

The other animals will learn to read and write.
The pigs will become more like the humans.
Mr. Jones’s children will come for their books.
The animals will find more things in the trash.

Answer 1

The pigs will become more like the humans.

Reason: Learning to read and write from Mr. Jones’s spelling book shows the pigs adopting a distinctly human skill, suggesting they’ll take on more human-like traits and roles.
