A. It is important to recognize a dictatorship before it is too late.

In the passage from the allegorical novella "Animal Farm," by George Orwell, the horse Boxer is being taken away while the mare Clover yells, telling him to escape because he is being taken to his death.

Things only got to this point in the story because the animals failed to recognize the dictatorship they were living in.

The pigs, being the most intelligent animals in the farm, were chosen to lead the other animals and manage the farm.

However, the pig Napoleon soon became a dictator. Through the use of false propaganda and coercion, he was able to keep the animals under control.

When they finally realize their new reality, it is too late to do anything about it.

The statement that best expresses the theme of the passage is that It is important to recognize a dictatorship before it is too late.

Explanation:

The passage was from George Orwell's Animal Farm when Boxer,one of the animals was led away to his death and despite the pleas and cries from the other animals to the two horses that came to carry him out, they fell on deaf ears.

The book Animal Farm is a book about the animals living in relative peace in a farm, who were guided by some commandments such as "All animals are equal" and "No animal shall be killed by another animal" but soon after there arose a dictator among them who subtly changed the commandments to suit his dictatorship rule and the animals were too blind to notice it until it had become too late, eventually ending in Boxer, one of the prized horses being taken away to his death.
