Animal Farm is an English book written by George Orwell in 1945. It tells a story about farm animals. The animals can't stand Mr. Jones, the farmer. He treats them badly, so they decide to kick him off the farm and run the farm themselves.
One day an old pig called Old Major gathers the animals around him. He tells them that all animals should stand together. He says they should control the farm.
After they get rid of (摆脱) Mr. Jones, two pigs become the leaders of Animal Farm. One pig called Snowball is a great speaker. He has great ideas for Animal Farm. The other leader is a pig called Napoleon. Napoleon is a crafty animal. He brings supporters together by offering them advantages.
Napoleon makes a war against Snowball and kicks him away from the farm. He turns Snowball into a big enemy. He says that Snowball is working with Farmer Jones and other farmers to destroy (毁灭) Animal Farm. In fact, it is Napoleon who is working with the enemies of the animals. But he tells the animals that he is working for them. The animals work hard, but it seems that it is as bad to live under Napoleon as it was under Farmer Jones!
Why is the book so important and popular?
Animal Farm is an excellent choice for learners of English because it's very short. The language is also simple.
