Which statement of survival most accurately describes the ending of the story, To Build a Fire?

English
1 answer:
MAXImum [283]3 years ago
6 0

The correct answer is option letter C (Instinct prevails over intellect). In the short story “<em>To Build a Fire</em>” by Jack London (1902), a unnamed man sets out to the old camp on Henderson Greek against all <u>warnings</u> against it, since he should cross a pine forest with the temperature of −75 °F (−59 °C). A dog, a husky dog, accompanied the man all the way. Even though its instinct tells it not to travel under such conditions, the man doesn't seem to bother. In the description of the man’s struggle against nature, London uses <u>the dog</u> as an element that functions as <em>a symbol</em> of how <u>instinct</u> can be better than the knowledge you think you have. There are several moments when the dog’s instinct tells it to come back because continuing with the trip is nothing but trouble. The arrogance of the man not trusting the dog’s instinct leads him to his slow and painful death. The <em><u>instinct</u></em><em> </em>could have same the man.

What does Atticus do that makes Jem and Scout proud of their father?
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

  1. This changes when Atticus shoots the mad dog. They find out that he is a sharp shooter and was infamous in the county as one-shot Finch. They were now proud of their father. Jem is confused that his father has kept this a secret and at first wants to know why Atticus would not be proud and brag about this ability.
  2. The reason Jem won't allow Scout to brag about Atticus's talent is because he wants to be a gentleman like his father and understands that having the ability to shoot beings is not something to take pride in.
