Answer:
compound-complex
Explanation:
the first part is a complex since you have a comma in the beginning, then you have the word "and" with a full sentence after it, therfore it is also a compound.

I would estimate that the first one is the answer.
I looked up the summary(s) for both the passages, and 'to build a fire' is about a guy who despite everything being against him, being persistent and dying because of his actions, while 'gumption' is about the hardships of african americans.
Of course, this is just my estimation.
