Answer:

Buck was returning to his ancient instinctual roots is the answer.

Explanation:

the Call of the Wild is a book written by Jack London, an American writer and journalist. The question refers to the main character, Buck, which was a dog taken to Alaska after he is stolen from his home in California. The speaker considers Buck's progress as a retrogression because he was coming back to his feral instincts in order to survive in such hard conditions as a sled dog.

cupoosta [38]
The animals have a bittersweet victory against Jones. It is heavily implicated that the Animal Farm is becoming a place grounded more in military might than agrarian industry. Many decisions point to that, such as: the decision to fire Jones' gun twice a year, military decorations etc. All these things show how the Animal farm is slowly being transformed into a place governed by martial law more than the Seven Commandments of Animalism.

Describe gatsby physical transformation from the moment he enters nicks house to meet daisy to the moment the three characters l
KATRIN_1 [288]

Gatsby enters the house with a more constricted and darker appearance but leaves the house radiant and happy after meeting Daisy.

<h3>How does the book show Gatsby's appearance?</h3>
  • The book shows him with someone with tanned skin.
  • The book shows him as someone with short hair.
  • The book shows Gatsy looking withdrawn and nervous before meeting Daisy.
  • The book shows Gatsby beaming after meeting Daisy.

"The Great Gatsby" is a book that describes its protagonist, Gatsby, in a very indirect way. The reader has no details on Gatsby's physical appearance, knowing only that he has tanned skin and short hair. Most of Gatsby's description is done indirectly, through dialogue and narration.

With this, the reader only knows that before the encounter with Daisy, Gatsby looked a little withdrawn and nervous. This was due to uncertainty about how Daisy would react to meeting him. However, the narration shows that after the meeting, when he left the mansion with Nick and Daisy, Gatsby was radiant, happy, and excited.
