Final answer:
In the song "Beasts of England" from Orwell's "Animal Farm", the animals wish for 'a) Hunger and oppression' to vanish, symbolizing their aspirations for a better life without the suffering imposed by human masters.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question pertains to the song "Beasts of England" from George Orwell's novel Animal Farm, an allegorical and dystopian novella. This song represents the utopian vision the animals dream of for their future, where the hardships they face under human rule would vanish. As the song is a symbol of hope and revolution against the current oppressive regime of humanity, it is these conditions of hardship that the animals wish to see disappear.
In the context of the song, the things the animals in "Beasts of England" long for to vanish are a) Hunger and oppression. This desire is reflective of the overall grievances and aspirations of the animals on the farm, who seek to create a society where all animals are free and equal, without the exploitation and suffering imposed by humans.
The song as an aspect of their rebellion epitomizes their struggle against what they perceive as a life of servitude and deprivation, conscious of the fact that they toil for the benefit of others without reaping the fruits of their labor. These powerful feelings against hunger and oppression rally the animals together and give them a unified goal for their uprising and the establishment of their own governance.
