As Clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with
tears. If she could have spoken her thoughts, it would
have been to say that this was not what they had aimed at
when they had set themselves years ago to work for the
overthrow of the human race. These scenes of terror and
slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on
that night when old Major first stirred them to rebellion.
If she herself had had any picture of the future, it had
been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the
whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity,
the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the
lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of
Major's speech.

Clover's response in the passage supports the author's purpose in the following ways: 1. She feels great despair, like many people in the Soviet Union: Clover's tears and disappointment mirror the feelings of many individuals in the Soviet Union during times of upheaval and disillusionment. 2. She is similar to peasants who thought that the rebellion would create a better world: Clover's initial vision of a utopian society for the animals, free from oppression and inequality, aligns with the hopes of peasants and workers who believed in a brighter future through revolution. These points highlight how Clover's emotional response and shattered expectations reflect broader themes of disillusionment and the gap between idealistic visions and harsh realities, contributing to the author's purpose of critiquing political ideologies and their real-world outcomes.
