Book 2, Chapter 8 & 9

Book 2, Chapter 8

1. The inner and outer party's living arrangements contrast easily based on the setup, and the freedom within one's room. The inner party gets pretty much whatever they like, along with good food, privacy, and a good environment to live in. The outer party has no privacy, gets bad food, and has a schedule they pretty much have to base their life on. Therefore, the inner party has it easy.

2. He tests them by asking them all these questions discussing what exactly they'd go through to defeat the party. But when the question would it be worth not seeing each other anymore, Julia steps in and finally says no, allowing O'Brien to see that they have developed a good relationship.

3. He tells them that the Brotherhood actually exists, and that nobody has any idea where Goldstein really is. He also says that if anyone were to attempt to kill Big Brother, they would end up dying themselves.

4. He's going to hand Winston a briefcase as if he were to drop it without even noticing.


CHAPTER 9


1.

2. The upper class, middle class, and lower class.

3. It seems as though only the names have changed throughout time, and the people and classes themselves are still acting/being the same.

4. Just to keep the people under control to an extent. By using and doing all the things that they do, people are treated and acting like slaves and prisoners in their own homes and community.

5. To get rid of ones thoughts completely and tell them how they are going to act, and possibly take over the entire world?

6. They can not overtake the fellow superstates, which is a big deal to them. And they are unable to physically take over what exactly it is that they want.

7. So that their people don't mingle together and possibly plan an overthrowing of the systems. And maybe they'd realize how much a like their countries are treating them.

8.

9.

10. Upper Class: To conquer and control all.
Middle Class: To live their lives and act as though they're better than the lower class.
Lower Class: To try and stay alive and build up a better life.

11.

12. If you go by this book, people are being watched on a regular basis, and are fed fake food. Back in the old times, there was no way of being watched unless someone was physically watching you, and food was completely real, so no bi-product fake foods.

13. They have the more civilized workers, better communication, and are just a stronger unit.

14.

15. They force people into worshipping or just being lead by Big Brother as if he were God.

16. Depends on what type of class they were born into; kind of like how they've always done it.

17. When you take a certain topic, and have two completely different thought about it, and whatever side that they pick, it'll end up being the truth about that topic.

18. If they want to keep full control over the people, then they're going to have to act as though they never make a mistake. They have to show the people they can trust them, and if they do so, then they're under the ruling classes order.
