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.

Explanation:
The line "'Twas mercy brought me from my Pagan land," in the poem "On being brought from Africa to America" and the line "Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand" in the poem "The new colossus" underscores the theme about America being a land of foreigners.
<h3>Why is this theme highlighted?</h3>
- Because it reinforces that many people do not live in their homelands but in America.
- To reinforce how much foreigners do not intend to return to their homelands.
Although both poems underscore how America is home to many foreigners, the context in which this is addressed in each poem is different.
In "On being brought from Africa to America" the author is an African woman enslaved and brought to America by force. This shows that the woman is not a foreigner of her own volition, but the system into which she has been inserted prevents her from not seeing America as her home.
In "The new colossus" the author is a refugee woman, who saw America as an option to escape her country's problems and found in the country, of her own free will, a home where she feels good.

Answer:
He explains Hamlet’s behavior through Ophelia’s dialogue, thereby tying up loose ends in the plot.
Explanation:
Thanks to this excerpt, the reader is able to visualize a crucial situation between two characters in a specific point in the story.
Ophelia's horrified reaction to her encounter with Hamlet allowed for a very detailed and critical description of Hamlet's behavior and his then current state of mind, which might have been perceived as a loose end by the reader.
