Which statement best explains how details in the
passage develop the central idea that Boxer is dedicated
to the farm?
Read the passage from Animal Farm.
Boxer was the admiration of everybody. He had been a
hard worker even in Jones's time, but now he seemed
more like three horses than one; there were days when
the entire work of the farm seemed to rest on his mighty
shoulders. From morning to night he was pushing and
pulling, always at the spot where the work was hardest.
He had made an arrangement with one of the cockerels
to call him in the mornings half an hour earlier than
anyone else, and would put in some volunteer labour at
whatever seemed to be most needed, before the regular
day's work began. His answer to every problem, every
setback, was "I will work harder!"-which he had
adopted as his personal motto.
O The details show that everybody likes Boxer.
O The details show that Boxer is inventive.
O The details show that Boxer misses Jones.
O The details show that Boxer is tireless.
