Which line from White Fang is most likely to change a prediction that White Fang will learn to appreciate the humans?
katovenus [111]

Answer:

B). "He came to know that men were more just... and women more kindly."

Explanation:

The line 'He came...kindly' most likely alters the prediction that White Fang will learn to admire or appreciate the humans as it displays that he got to know about the cruel and inhumane side of the humans. The other options suggests that 'he came to know about the ways of man-aniimals and their godliness , he began to learn their ways or wishes and the power they displayed to enforce that wish and thus, he felt he must show obedience to them.' Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

It is a pun because he does not mean a "Freemason"; he means a mason, a craftsman who does brickwork, the kind Montresor plans to perform on Fortunato to seal him in the catacombs forever.
