The correct answer to the question: What does the excerpt reveal about the setting of the story?, is: A: The lack of civilization is a persistent danger.
Explanation:
In this adventure novel by Jack London, and published in 1903, especially starting from chapter 2, we learn about the adventures that a St. Bernard cross with Scottish Shepherd, called Buck, must face when he is sold to a couple of French-Canadian dispatchers, called Francois and Perrault, and he must become part of a pack of sled-leading dogs, whose leader is the terror, Spitz and who work in the Klondlike region of Canada. The answer chosen, A, is the correct choice, as what is described by the narrator, as he talks about what Buck faces at the start of chapter 2, is that Buck must face the reality that he is no longer in his sunny and comfortable life in California, but is facing a situation where danger, especially from his dog companions and also humans, is constant. There is a total lack of civilization brought on by the roughness of the landscape, the situation and the animals and humans themselves. Buck soon realizes that danger here is a constant companion. This can be seen from the excerpt itself, when it says: "There was need to be constantly alert; for these dogs and men were not town dogs and men."

Answer:
Think about the characteristics of a stereotypical English butler. They are usually depicted as sober, exceptionally loyal, and as having a dry wit. In the Oscar Wilde play ''The Importance of Being Earnest,'' Algernon's butler, Lane, and Jack's butler, Merriman, play the part. Additionally, they are able to contribute to exposing the ridiculousness of the upper echelon of English society, through a working-class lens. Let's learn more about these characters. Lane only appears in Act I, which takes place in Algernon's flat in the city. Algernon is a wealthy butler who lives in the city. There is a conversation between Lane and Algernon as they prepare for afternoon tea with Algernon's cousin, Gwendolen, and his aunt, Lady Bracknell.
Lane is of the opinion that bachelors serve better wine but claims he does not have much experience, as he has just been married once as a '' consequence of a misunderstanding between myself and a young person.'' Algernon quickly loses interest in hearing about his employee's personal life and judges him for not being a better example of morality.
Lane goes in and out of the room without interacting with Lane's guests, except to introduce them and to defend Algernon by saying, ''There were no cucumbers in the market this morning,'' when there are no cucumber sandwiches left for the guests because Algernon ate them all.
After the guests leave, Algernon confides in Lane that he intends to go Bunburying, which is Algernon's term for visiting the country to escape family, under the guise of visiting an invalid friend named Bunbury, who doesn't actually exist. Algernon's main reason for going to the country is to investigate Jack to make sure he is a suitable match for his cousin, Gwendolen. Lane packs for him without judgment. When Algernon mentions that he hopes tomorrow will be a good day, Lane responds,''It never is,'thus, revealing himself as a pessimist.
