What evidence from "To Build a Fire" might lead you to inference?

English

Dmitrij [34]3 years ago

In "To Build A Fire" by Jack London, the man is arrogant and overconfident. Of the four passages, this can be most inferred from passage C. Passage C reads:

"Those old-timers were rather womanish, some of them, he thought. All a man had to do was to keep his head, and he was all right. Any man who was a man could travel alone."

This clearly shows that the man thought he was more intelligent than the older generation from the area that advised him not to travel alone when the temperature was 50 degrees below zero. It was 75 degrees below, but he thought he could outwit nature. As he was freezing to death, he realized he was wrong, but it was too late. He was overconfident and that ultimately led to his death.

Answer:

C) Those old-timers were rather womanish, some of them, he thought. All a man had to do was to keep his head, and he was all right. Any man who was a man could travel alone.

Explanation:

To <em>Build a Fire</em> is the story about a <em>chechaquo</em> to the Yukon domain stupidly adventures out into the cold in spite of admonitions not to. He intends to meet his companions at the following human settlement by six o'clock that night. He is joined by a wolf-hound, an imposing, that feels no fondness for him.  

The man thought he was more canny than the more established age from the zone that prompted him not to travel alone when the temperature was 50 degrees beneath zero. It was 75 degrees beneath, yet he figured he could outmaneuver nature. As he was frigid to death, he understood he wasn't right, yet it was past the point of no return. He was overconfident and that ultimately led to his death.

A kind of figurative language that draws a sharper comparison than a simile is _____.
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor draws a sharper comparison than a simile. A metaphor is a figurative language that describes an object by comparing the object with another unrelated thing. It does not give the object its literal meaning. It is usually expressed in a phrase or clause by associating two things that are unrelated to make meaning. For example, when someone says Brian has a river valley knowledge in Mathematics.

Can someone give me a 12 line poem about an earthquake and how it managed to weave its magical spell
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

It may not be 12 lines but it is good!

Explanation:

Sure, there are the shakes and scares,

Seismic shifts accompanied by tectonic tears.

But ditch this global perspective,

Figure out what rips those ripples, detective.

Let’s see you pound at the ground.

Hit it hard, ‘til you hear a heavy sound.

Is that enough to fissure some asphalt?

Tell me, could you bring this spinning planet to a sudden halt?

I can’t say for sure, what an Earth-quake does.

Though I’ve been a victim,

Earth isn’t where my quake was.

An Earth-less earthquake,

On a planet whose name I’ve learned to forsake.

Wynn’s world wandered ‘round someone else’s orbit:

Drawn to its gravity like grapes grow on a vine;

Brightened by its solar system’s shining smile, so divine;

Emotional tides tugged in and out;

Guided by its mysterious moon’s midnight meandering about.

That’s right – an orbit with its own time flow.

Time that could stomp its heels and steal a spotlight,

Time that could manipulate a moment like jello, mayonnaise, or some other squishy substance,

Time that could crash course, while standing still,

Time that could reveal something you never knew.

What do you suppose an earthquake does?

A quake could be anything that makes you shake.

Think of quaking in fear, as an unknown figure draws near.

Think of a jittery heart, that’s been bit by a bullet.

Internal tears,

think of organs bleeding,

Think of needing,

solid ground,

but falling and time keeps stalling.

When a quiet little quiver promises to deliver,

its slight shock signal straight through the middle.

When a molten magma core fizzes its manic madness,

like a shaken soda.

When an epic eruption carries out its upward excelsior,

Rejecting the spinning without a stop.

Oh, the mountains will tumble,

The hills and valleys, they’ll crumble,

And gurgle in the raging rivers’ rumble,

As volcanoes churn out violent bubbles,

Stirring up all kinds of troubles,

For one person’s personal planet.

For one person’s personal planet,

These violent forces of nature can’t compare to an Earth-quake,

When the ground you stand on begins to break,

When you realize your senseless stability is fake.

When that little quake knocks your Earth awake,

It’s reality coming alive to take, and take, and take,

Because for love, you put everything at stake.

What do you suppose an earthquake does?

I’ll tell you – it leaves a wrecked world with a cracked core and scorched surroundings.

Just because.

Just because, love on Earth always comes with a quiet little quake.
