#You need to specify levels and labels here, like this:
a <- factor(c(2,3,3,2,4,2,3,2,2,2,3,2,3),
levels = 1:4,
labels = c("dislike very much",
"dislike",
"like",
"like very much"))
Then barplot will plot all four factor levels.
barplot(table(a))
This is pretty basic stuff, likely to be covered in most introductory texts,
so I suggest you take some time to read an introduction to R.
Best,
