5 Model answers: Daily Hate is when the people of Oceania stand in front of the telescreens and shout about the things the Party want them to hate that day (for example, a person or a country).

Newspeak is the official language of Oceania. It contains no uneccesary words that can lead to “thoughtcrimes”.

6a 1 Big Brother

2 The Thought Police

3 The Inner Party

4 The Outer Party

5 The Proles

6b Model answers: 1 Big Brother is the leader of the Party which rules Oceania. People love and obey him, and they think that he is watching everything that they do at all times.

2 The Thought Police is a special police force responsible for making people obey the Party’s rules. It catches, tortures and kills anybody who commits thoughtcrimes against the Party.

3 The Inner Party is the most important part of the Party, closest to Big Brother himself. Inner Party members have more freedom and rights than other Party members. They live separately in large, comfortable buildings with guards.

4 The Outer Party members all belong to the Party, but they do not control it. They follow the Party’s rules, wear a uniform, live together in buildings and do exactly what the party tells them to do.

5 The Proles do not belong to the Party. They live in poor, dirty and smelly areas of Oceania. Party members think of them as animals that they have to control, but actually they are more human than anyone else.
