Why would the driver of a dog-sled team use the word "mush"? He wants the dogs to sit.

He wants to dogs to leap forward.

He wants the dogs to wait.

He wants the dogs to go.

D) He wants the dogs to go.

The website etymonline says the following:

mush (interj.)

command to sled dogs, 1897, first recorded 1862, as mouche, perhaps altered from French marchons! "advance!" (imperative of marcher "to march;" see march (v.))

So basically the driver is shouting "march!" (more or less) to the dogs for them to move forward. The "interj." means "interjection".

the correct answer is the first option "the bolkshevik revolution". the passage makes reference to many of important events that occured in the revolution, such as the assemblies, in this case the animals are gathered in an assembly after a protest, the murder of fellow partners, the speeches given by the leader of the revolution, among other aspects. the last choice is possible, but in this passage in particular it is not emphasized the fight between the characters, that is the two pigs, that represent lenin and stallin.
