The passage suggests that Napoleon is motivated by a desire for control over the farm. Which details from the text support this

inference?
On the third Sunday after Snowball's expulsion, the animals were somewhat surprised to hear Napoleon announce that the windmill was to be built after all. He did not give any reason for having changed his mind, but merely warned the animals that this extra task would mean very hard work, it might even be necessary to reduce their rations. The plans, however, had all been prepared, down to the last detail. A special committee of pigs had been at work upon them for the past three weeks. The building of the windmill, with various other improvements, was expected to take two years.

That evening Squealer explained privately to the other animals that Napoleon had never in reality been opposed to the windmill. On the contrary, it was he who had advocated it in the beginning, and the plan which Snowball had drawn on the floor of the incubator shed had actually been stolen from among Napoleon's papers. The windmill was, in fact, Napoleon's own creation. Why, then, asked somebody, had he spoken so strongly against it? Here Squealer looked very sly. That, he said, was Comrade Napoleon's cunning. He had seemed to oppose the windmill, simply as a maneuver to get rid of Snowball, who was a dangerous character and a bad influence. Now that Snowball was out of the way, the plan could go forward without his interference. This, said Squealer, was something called tactics. He repeated a number of times, "Tactics, comrades, tactics!" skipping round and whisking his tail with a merry laugh. The animals were not certain what the word meant, but Squealer spoke so persuasively, and the three dogs who happened to be with him growled so threateningly, that they accepted his explanation without further questions.

brilliants [131]

In the following excerpt of "Sinners in the hands of an angry God", Edwards extensively compares God's wrath with great Warters:

"The Wrath of God is like great Waters that are  dammed for the present; they increase more and  more, & rise higher and higher, till an Outlet is  given, and the longer the Stream is stop’d, the more  rapid and mighty is it’s Course, when once it is let  loose. 'Tis true, that Judgment against your evil  Works has not been executed hitherto; the Floods  of God’s Vengeance have been with-held; but your  Guilt in the mean Time is constantly increasing,  and you are every Day treasuring up more Wrath;  the Waters are continually rising an waxing more  and more mighty; and there is nothing but the meer  Pleasure of God that holds the Waters back that are  unwilling to be stopped, and press hard to go forward;  if God should only withdraw his Hand from  the Flood-Gate, it would immediately fly open,  and the fiery Floods of the Fierceness and Wrath of  God would rush forth with inconceivable Fury, and  would come upon you with omnipotent Power; and  if your Strength were ten thousand Times greater  than it is, yea ten thousand Times greater than the  Strength of the stoutest, sturdiest, Devil in Hell, it  would be nothing to withstand or endure it."

IrinaK [193]
The correct answer is D.
In this essay, Lisa Wilson Strick is advocating that a completely non-sexist parenting is nearly impossible in our society.
