I am pretty sure that themes on which William Folkner focuses and takes as a basis of his masterpieces are definitely : love, honor, compassion, and sacrifice. First of all, there is a prompt in question that is put in quotation marks. Love and compassion are the points which always were in need for people's relationships and honor with sacrifice, as told by Folkner in many of his works, are connected to more global sphere of demand - they are universal issues.
Answer:
D. Nathan asks audience members if they have any questions following his speech, and a few raise their hands.
Explanation:
Hello. This question is incompetent. The full question is:
A poor substitute for food was this hide, just as it had been stripped from the starved horses of the cattlemen six months back. In its frozen state it was more like strips of galvanized iron, and when a dog wrestled it into his stomach it thawed into thin and innutritious leathery strings and into a mass of short hair, irritating and indigestible.
The sensory details in this excerpt help the reader understand how cold and harsh the weather is. How long food rations can last on the trail. How desperate the dogs are to eat. How poorly treated the horses are.
Answer:
How desperate the dogs are to eat.
Explanation:
The text manages to promote sensory details that show how the dogs were so hungry that they were content to eat anything that could satisfy the overwhelming and desperate hunger they felt. The hunger was so great that the dogs were able to eat extremely hard, frozen, tasteless and nutrient-free strips of leather, because that was more comfortable than the hunger they felt.
