Answer:
"He was the finest young man that she had ever seen, he had given her three golden apples, and he had risked his life to win her."
Explanation:
The Greek mythology of Atalanta tells the story of the human huntress who was so adamant about being victorious over everyone and staying unmarried forever. But when Hippomenes came and participated in the competition for her hand in marriage, she 'intentionally' let him win so as to be married to him.
In the given excerpt, Atlanta was kept distracted by Hippomenes by using the three magical golden apples given by Aphrodite. Though distracted by the golden apples, she was also a bit interested in Hippomenes that she did not mind letting him win. She observed,<em> "He was the finest young man that she had ever seen, he had given her three golden apples, and he had risked his life to win her."
</em>

In these sentences, the point the author is trying to make is that nature does not care whether plants, animals, or humans live or die.
The overall theme of "The Trail of Meat" is nature, and while the winter itself may have made the journey nearly impossible, the author hints at nature's indiscriminatory behavior against anything with movement, "... It is not the way of the Wild to like movement. Life is an offence to it, for life is movement; and the Wild aims always to destroy movement. "
It would be C because they're using the fact that they've lived in the city for so long to convey credibility.
Answer:
in Chapter 7
The scene returns back completely to the island. Cole observes the orca whales just off the shore, and the Spirit Bear appears once more. Cole now prepares a sharpened branch as a spear along with his small knife for the next time the Spirit Bear appears. He has been on the island for one full day, and that night he has a very fitful sleep. He wakes up constantly fearing that the bear is near him, but the bear is nowhere to be found.However, the bear remains motionless until it suddenly disappears. Strangely, in the remains of the fire, the at.óow remains, and Cole puts it over his shoulders. Cole keeps going over the scenes of the Circles back home with community members, and the chapter closes with a scene from one of the circles where Cole yells out publicly and in front of his parents that his father abuses him physically.
Chapter 8
The action of Cole’s Spirit Bear encounter continues. Cole thrusts the spear towards the bear, but the animal easily deflects it. The bear easily strikes Cole over the head with a powerful blow. The bear bites into Cole’s thigh, scratches Cole’s chest, and lifts him over his head. As a final act of domination, the Bear places his paws on Cole’s chest and cracks his ribs. Then, the bear stands over Cole in the pouring rain, and Cole can only move his left arm and his head, unable to lift himself. Every other part of his body is broken and in pain. The bear slowly shifts away as seagulls a few steps away fight over torn pieces of Cole’s flesh. Cole realizes that the bear is the only thing that has ever been unafraid of him. A bloody bone protruded from his right arm, and his hand was stuffed with thistles from a Devil’s Club plant that he had grabbed while trying to escape the bear.
Chapter 9
Cole is still lying on the ground, having been mauled by the bear, but he begins to become more aware of his surroundings. He sees a nest with sparrows, and a mother sparrow is feeding her children. Cole is angered by this kind of affection shown between mother and offspring, and he feels more alone and uncared for than ever. In the freezing rain, Cole craves the at.óow blanket, but he cannot reach it. During a nighttime thunderstorm, Cole again sights the Spirit Bear fifty feet away during a flash of lightning. In an instant, the bear disappears, but Cole fears that he will return to kill him.The storm continued to rage without the presence of the bear, and trees are split in two by lightning. The chapter ends with Cole realizing that the tree with the birds have been struck down by lightning, and he shows this first sign of compassion.
