Answer: C: courage helps people survive in danger
Explanation:
The question requires choosing the option that best states the theme of an excerpt from The King of Mazy May, by Jack London. In the excerpt, Walt Masters courageously escapes his pursuers by attacking them with his whip and pushing their wheel dog, which makes "courage helps people survive in danger" the best possible description for the theme. There are no references to honesty nor beauty coming from within. Friendship, trust, and patience are not present in the excerpt either.
The correct answer is A. Fearfulness
Explanation:
This excerpt belongs to the poem "Columbus" by Joaquin Miller. In this, the author refers to the experience of Columbus and his men as they sailed from Europe to the Americas. In this poem the excerpt "Should I and all my men fall dead. These very winds forget their way..." show the fear, despair, and lack of hope by Columbus and his men because they were afraid all of them would simply die "Should I and all my men fall dead" and not even god will know it or would help them. In this context, the tone or general atmosphere is better described through the word fearfulness.
