Quote Analysis Answer Key

This worksheet requires students to interpret five significant quotes from 1984 and explain their meanings in their own words. Learners analyze how each statement reflects key ideas about truth, power, control, and human freedom within the novel. By writing their responses, students practice literary interpretation and textual analysis while linking quotes to overarching themes such as propaganda and totalitarianism. The task promotes higher-order thinking by asking students to draw thematic connections and evaluate Orwell’s social commentary.
