Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

The character in the passage from Animal Farm is described as working in a "slow, obstinate way," meaning they are stubborn and resistant to change. They do their required work but never volunteer for extra duties, suggesting a lack of enthusiasm or belief in the system. This attitude aligns with cynicism, which is characterized by distrust, scepticism or a lack of faith in change or improvement.
