Answer 1

The answer would be B

Answer 2

b. It is where history is rewritten.

Step-by-step explanation:

The name "Ministry of Truth" is supposed to be ironic. The irony lies in the fact that the last thing that takes place there is finding out the truth. Instead, the Ministry's only purpose is to lie and to alter information, in particular historical information, in order to satisfy the needs of the Party.
