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. There was no thought of rebellion or disobedience in her mind. She knew that, even as things were, they were far better off than they had been in the days of Jones, and that before all else it was needful to prevent the return of the human beings. Whatever happened she would remain faithful, work hard, carry out the orders that were given to her, and accept the leadership of Napoleon. But still, it was not for this that she and all the other animals had hoped and toiled. It was not for this that they had built the windmill and faced the bullets of Jones's gun. Such were her thoughts, though she lacked the words to express them.

C. Orwell shows that Clover discovers she is mistaken in believing that the powerful would protect the weak.

Explanation:

"Animal Farm" by George Orwell is an allegorical novella written as a criticism of the Soviet regime in Russia, after the Russian Revolution. Orwell uses the animals as a representation of the Russian people. The animals fight for the ideal of equality, of the strong protecting the weak, by kicking out the human owner of the farm and taking over the land. They now work not for the profit of their owner, but for their own purposes of equality.

The excerpt shows how the animals, just like the Russian people, found out they were being misled. In the story, the pigs become a representation of Soviet leaders when they take control of the farm. They quickly realize how advantageous it is for them to have power, and they do everything to keep it - even killing their fellow animals -, getting more and more similar to humans in the process.

It is clear that Clover is deeply sad for the violent practices by their leader. She had hoped life would improve for all, and was mistaken when she believed that the powerful would protect the weak. Still, she does not wish to rebel for she deeply - and wrongly - believes that life was worse before the revolution.
