Describe the overall mood, atmosphere, or underlying idea of the following excerpts and list the author's words that have connot

ations that contribute to that mood or idea.
He was leaning against the ledge of an open lattice, but not looking out: his face was turned to the interior gloom. The fire had smouldered to ashes; the room was filled with the damp, mild air of the cloudy evening; and so still, that not only the murmur of the beck down Gimmerton was distinguishable, but its ripples and its gurgling over the pebbles, or through the large stones which it could not cover. (Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, Chapter 34.)

This passage allows us to see into the inner struggle and loneliness of the character. This is revealed in the phrase "interior gloom" while he faces the "open lattice" but he was not looking at anything at all. He was engrossed in his own thoughts and feelings of a closure or an ending of life implied in the phrase "the fire had smouldered to ashes." The surroundings was so silent and cold as revealed in the words "damp, mild air," "cloudy evening" and "so still."

Answer:

The message is that, as well as dogs, have his own instincts (searching for food when they are starving, and fighting until death in order to get food), humans are not different, they will defend their selves and their possessions until death. This situation does not mean that even when humans are acting because of his instincts, they do not feel fear: when Bill says "I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone." it means that they know they have to do something to make dogs go away even they do not like the situation and feel afraid, as well as dogs do but have no other option to survive than to follow their instincts.

To snow.

Why? "It's beginning to snow." makes the most sense. "It's beginning snowing." doesn't make as much sense.
