Answer:

Onomatopoeia is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In the excerpt from "Safari Day in Kenya," the author uses a rhetorical device called onomatopoeia, which recreates the sounds of something, usually related to nature. Through this device, the speaker recreates hippos and baboons sounds through the word selection.

Answer:

C.his feelings of contempt and animosity toward Snowball and his ideas

The excerpt says that he "declared himself against the windmill" and while walking around the plans "snuffed at them once or twice". This behavior shows that he is not in favor of the windmill plans. His act of urinating all over the plans confirms his dislike of them.

The other options are also simply wrong. Option A is simply an incorrect statement. The hens and ducks did not make the plans nor did they have plans to destroy them. His natural instinct to mark the plans as his own is also a terrible choice. Option D is also not a good option since the other animals have already seen Snowball's windmill plans. We know this because it says "All of them came to look".
