Answer
Brief Explanations:
- Plain folks: Squealer uses simple, relatable language like "comrade" to connect with Boxer. He emphasizes the idea of victory in a way that seems straightforward and for the common good (driving the enemy off "sacred soil"), making it seem like a cause that all animals (the "plain folks" of the farm) should support.
- Scapegoat: There is no indication in the passage that an individual or group is being blamed for problems (no scapegoat is identified).
- Bandwagon: There's no mention of "everyone is doing it" or pressure to join a popular movement.
- Glittering generalities: While there are positive - sounding words like "victory" and "mighty thing", the key here is the use of language to appeal to the common animal (Boxer, a hard - working and simple - minded animal) which is more characteristic of plain folks.
