Read the passage from chapter 1 of Animal Farm.

"This single farm of ours would support a dozen horses,

twenty cows, hundreds of sheep-and all of them living in a

comfort and a dignity that are now almost beyond our

imagining. Why then do we continue in this miserable

condition? Because nearly the whole of the produce of our

labour is stolen from us by human beings. There,

comrades, is the answer to all our problems. It is summed

up in a single word-Man. Man is the only real enemy we

have. Remove Man from the scene, and the root cause of

hunger and overwork is abolished for ever."
