Do you mean you need to write about 1984? Do you need to write about how the society would be if 1984 existed in 2005? (The dystopian society in 2005.) It's simple: just apply what Winston went through to our everyday lives; the dictatorship, the doublethink, etc. etc. Make sure to include newspeak because the English language was going to be obliterated.

It is very possible. the Patriot Act of 2001 is a prime example of how the government is already taking away our civil liberties in order to gain more power
