Mitchell Thomas lived just to taunt me. There were other
boys too who picked on me, but Mitchell was the worst. I
recall one time in particular when I was about nine or so
and I was reading beside a creek on my daddy's land, and
Mitchell came up from behind me and just whopped me
on the head. For no reason. Just whopped me on the
head! Course I jumped up mad. "What ya do that for?" I
cried.
"Felt like it," he said. That's all; he felt like it. "Ya wanna
do somethin' 'bout it?"

A: character vs. character.

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.
