Which two excerpts from Jack London’s "To Build a Fire" most clearly hint at the attitude that contributes to the main character

’s death?
Group of answer choices

Fifty degrees below zero was to him just precisely fifty degrees below zero. That there should be anything more to it than that was a thought that never entered his head.

He was used to the lack of sun. It had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view.

It did not lead him to meditate upon his frailty as a creature of temperature, and upon man's frailty in general, able only to live within certain narrow limits of heat and cold; and from there on it did not lead him to the conjectural field of immortality and man's place in the universe.

The man flung a look back along the way he had come. The Yukon lay a mile wide and hidden under three feet of ice. On top of this ice were as many feet of snow.

He knew that at fifty below spittle crackled on the snow, but this spittle had crackled in the air. Undoubtedly it was colder than fifty below—how much colder he did not know. But the temperature did not matter.

Well naturally, the two people should meet in the beginning. They ultimately need to fall in love so your story can later determine if it’s “fate” or just “love” they’re experiencing. If you’ve been in love before, that should help you write. Never answering the question “fate or love” could be cool too. Leave the reader to decide... but that’s more of an ending lol.

You can make the couple meet online, in person, naturally, on accident, literally however. In my opinion a long distance relationship might solidify the question “fate or love” simply because in a LDR (long distance relationship) the two can be so deeply in love, but so far away. This almost forces you to think “is this relationship fate, or are they just in love?” You need conflict definitely. Provoke the mind to ask this question. You can do it!!
