The theme of The King’s Magic Drum, is to always be honest. You can be rewarded by telling the truth instead of lying.
Job is "work" that gives you pay. "Work" is just.. uh.. labour. Can be volunteer or just general work. Sorry for my cringe worthy answer
Answer: Buck is kidnapped by a gardener on the Miller estate and sold to dog traders, who teach Buck to obey by beating him with a club and, subsequently, ship him north to the Klondike.
Arriving in the chilly North, Buck is amazed by the cruelty he sees around him. As soon as another dog from his ship, Curly, gets off the boat, a pack of huskies violently attacks and kills her. Watching her death, Buck vows never to let the same fate befall him. Buck becomes the property of Francois and Perrault, two mail carriers working for the Canadian government, and begins to adjust to life as a sled dog.
Explanation:
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
The young docent welcomed the class to the museum, explaining that the east wing was under construction and he’d be leading them to the first exhibit. His fingers leapt to his name tag as he nervously introduced himself as "Liam, a student of the arts." Then he bade the group follow him. They traversed a vaulted hall lined with hulking objects, each one obscured by a faded tarpaulin. Some of the items stretched across the floor, others cast long shadows on the museum walls. What technique does the author use to build suspense in the excerpt?
A. word choice
B. quickening the pace of the story
C. intentionally omitting setting details
D. making the outcome of events uncertain
Answer:
The correct answer is <u>C. intentionally omitting setting details
.</u>

Explanation:
The author of this passage only gives us enough information to know where the characters are, and that the place is a bit scary. We know it's a museum, but we don't know what it looks like. There are items, "hulking objects", but the author does not offer any details. We don't know what these objects are; all we know is that they stretch across the floor or cast long shadows. The same goes for the museum. The lack of details prevents readers from visualizing it clearly. We know the man and the class are at a vaulted hall. The color of the walls, the lighting, the atmosphere, all of it is omitted. That technique helps create suspense, since, without much information, we do not know what to expect.
