Which of the following best describes the difference between the setting of the Southern House at the beginning of Chapter 1 of
The Call of the Wild and the setting of the train? One is safe and civilized, and the other is savage. One is fun and exciting, and the other is dull. One reflects Buck's nature; the other does not. One represents city life; the other country life.
One is safe and civilized, and the other is savage.
Explanation:
This is the main difference between the setting of the Southern House and the setting of the train. The Southern House where Buck lives is comfortable and safe. This represents civilization, and all the things that this brings to dogs like Buck. On the other hand, as Buck gets away from the house, he also begins to get away from civilization and its comforts. The setting of the train contrasts with the house as it is a savage and uncivilized environment.
