To show difference; point out how things are different is to: a describe b summarize c compare d contrast

The answer is contrast (Option D)

Explanation:

Contrast is the act of comparing two things or two people in order to show or determine the differences between them. In other words, contrast is the difference between two things or two people when they are compared.

"Contrast" is very different from "compare." As such, both words should not be used interchangeably because compare simply means to show or determine similarity while contrast serves the purpose of obtaining difference.

animal farm, written by george orwell, is a representation of russia after the revolution that led stalin to take over power.

in this excerpt, the central idea seems to be that the animals (a representation of society), when they believe to be working for a greater good and equality, are obedient and productive. they were convinced that, after expelling the owner (jones) from the farm, they would live in harmony and be fairly treated.

as we know, the pigs become the leaders and grow more selfish and dictatorial with time. in the end, they look and act in a way so similar to humans that it is impossible to tell the difference. the ideals of equality are shattered, and the farm turns out to be worse than it was before. the animals are manipulated with false propaganda and forced to work in order to enrich the pigs.
