37) The purpose for the production figures Squealer reads to the animals is to show that every class of food stuff has increased be 200/300/500 percent.
38) Napoleon is becoming more like a typical dictator because he is the only leader, the only one with power. He is power hungry and just wants all the power for himself.
39) Napoleon outwits himself because he waited till Fredrick's Farm offered more for the lumber. He outsmarted himself and his opponents at Fredrick's Farm.
40) The Battle of Fredrick's is different from the Battle of Cowshed because the Battle of Cowshed was a bunch of different farms fighting one and the Battle of Fredrick's was a one on one farm battle.
41) The men blow up the wndmill because thay want the animals to give up and let the people come back and be in control again.
42) The animlas celebreate a victory but at the cost of lossing some of their fellow commrades and the loss of their windmill.
43) The whisky incident was when Napoleon got so drunk he wanted to kill himself. Orwell made this somewhat humorous because this is what happens in the real world. he told us this flat out and it made sence in a way we never really thought it could.
44) The animlas are easily fooled because they don't want to choose the direction the truth is going, they want o believe in something better.
45) Boxer is hurt, but he keeps working hard and when you thought it couldn't get worse, it did, building materials fell on him and crushed him in a way that he was still living, but in pain.
46) The living conditions for all the animlas minus the pigs and dogs is terrible and harsh because the pigs think they can conrol the other animlas.
47) Napoleon allows moses to return to the farm and tell his stories of SugarCandy Mountain becuase it keeps the animals minds off rebellion and keeps them working hard.
48) Boxer is being taken to the chop shop becasue Napoleon sold him as a trade for grain. The animals acccept it because they are fooled, they are told that the hospital bought the truck and hadn't painted over the words "Horse Slaughterer."
49) Benjamin reminds me of a pessimstic person because even when things changed, he still didn't change his veiw. Thought things would get worse in the end and it did. The pigs took control and sold and killed fellow commrades. I think that we should listen to what these people have to say and try to make a better future my thinking things through. Think before you act.
