Paragraph: "It may seem surprising that no Confederate sympathizers took action against Van Lew, given her strong and public vie

ws on secession and slavery. Surely there were suspicions, especially among her upper-crust neighbors, but the matter never went beyond those suspicions. Historians have suggested that the secessionists were victims of their own cultural bias, believing that no aristocratic person, and certainly not a lady, would ever consider taking part in anything as impolite as spying. A true lady managed her servants, prepared parties and gatherings, and blindly supported her husband. Such attitudes worked in Van Lew's favor, diverting suspicion from her."
Based on your reading beyond this paragraph, what is an overall central idea that the author develops in The Dark Game?

A. Van Lew’s actions of espionage were possible only because she was a woman.
B. Van Lew’s deviant behavior was not the norm for aristocratic people.
C. Van Lew’s heroism lies in that she openly spoke about her views of secession and slavery.
D. Van Lew’s actions revolutionized the expectation and role of women in society.

How the author uses Buck’s character traits to develop a theme.
jekas [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

I would say that one of Buck's most prevalent trait is his loyalty.  Buck is extremely loyal to Judge Miller and represents obedience to his master at the start of the work.  Yet, throughout his being kidnapped and abused, he is exposed to the very worst of human action.  It would make sense that he would completely distrust people throughout such an ordeal.  However, he demonstrates the utmost of devotion and loyalty to Thornton, remaining with him and not fully going with the wolf pack.  At the end, when Thornton is killed, Buck cuts off all ties with human beings, as exposed to the absolute cruelty humans can do.  His loyalty is still present, when each year he visits Thornton's grave.  The idea in Buck of loyalty and devotion to a higher good is evident throughout London's work.
