Foreshadowing is when the author gives hints to the reader about events that will happen later in the book. So, in "Animal Farm," you can discuss the fact that shortly after the supposedly egalitarian farm is created, the cows' extra milk mysteriously vanishes, and it is implied that Napoleon (whose name even foreshadows dictatorship) is the one who drank it (end of Chapter 2).

Answer:Animal Farm makes heavy use of foreshadowing. Most of the plot’s main events are foreshadowed in the opening chapter. This foreshadowing emphasizes the inevitability of what happens, suggesting that violent revolution is doomed to fail, and that power always corrupts. Animal Farm’s foreshadowing also serves to place particular emphasis on the events Orwell saw as central to the failure of the Russian Revolution, and revolutions generally. The events most heavily foreshadowed are the different stages of the farm’s collapse into violence. Boxer’s death is foreshadowed in Chapter 7, when Napoleon’s dogs “go quite mad” and attack Boxer. Although Boxer is unharmed, this incident foreshadows Napoleon’s decision to have Boxer killed. Boxer’s death is also foreshadowed by the novella’s many references to the pasture that will be set apart for retired animals. As the pigs’ treachery unfolds, it becomes clear to the reader that the retirement pasture will never exist. As a result, every reference to Boxer’s retirement becomes an ironic foreshadowing of his betrayal and death. When Boxer himself looks forward to retiring, he is unwittingly foreshadowing that Napoleon will betray him, which emphasizes the cruelty of Napoleon’s deception.

Describe the incident with the vanilla ice cream. Why was it so upsetting for Nilda?
lyudmila [28]

Explanation:

As Sophie informed her that they'll get ice cream today, then Nilda was quite enthusiastic and assured Sophie how she would enjoy vanilla ice cream, Nilda was thinking that they'll get some healthy food today. They saw it put in bins, and Nilda got much more interested. Nilda was delighted to reveal a strawberry ice cream at the flat, and sat down to taste it. It sounded strange from ice cream with vanilla.

It was doughy, sticky and slippery as she placed it in her teeth. She spit it out, remembering that it was vegetable oil, not vanilla ice cream. Nilda was really irritated.
