Read the passage from Animal Farm.
As Clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with
tears. If she could have spoken her thoughts, it would
have been to say that this was not what they had aimed
at when they had set themselves years ago to work for
the overthrow of the human race. These scenes of terror
and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to
on that night when old Major first stirred them to
rebellion. If she herself had had any picture of the future,
it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger
and the whip, all equal, each working according to his
capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had
protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on
the night of Major's speech. Instead-she did not know
why they had come to a time when no one dared
speak his mind, when fierce, growling dogs roamed
everywhere, and when you had to watch your comrades
torn to pieces after confessing to shocking crimes..
