Reread this excerpt from The Call of the Wild.
Schach [20]

Answer:

He does not seek confrontation, but he is vicious in his own defense.

Explanation:

<em>The Call of the Wild</em> is a novel written by Jack London. It tells about a dog named Buck, who is stolen and sold into service as a sled dog in Alaska, and the changes he experiences in the harsh, cold environment, surrounded by other dogs.

Based on the given excerpt, we can conclude that Sol-lek doesn't seek confrontation but can be vicious when he feels like he needs to defend himself.  We are told that he doesn't like being approached from his blind side and that he hurt Buck when he approached him like that. Sol-lek was simply defending himself and that is why he lashed out. After that incident, he and Buck were great friends, based on which we can conclude that he doesn't seek confrontation for no reason.

This is why the second option is the correct one.
