<u>Answer:</u>
Material things will never bring happiness to any home even though I will live in a world controlled by material things; however, even with the excess of the material, there will be no contentment. The genuine feel of happiness comes from a family with love and care.
Most people run to materials things forgetting that it is not the sole bearer of happiness. Some people go as far as sacrificing their loved ones because of material possessions. According to Mrs. March, wealth is happiness that is contented.
"The domesticated generations fell from him" means that Buck is losing his civilized characteristics (B).
In this passage, Buck is feeling more and more estranged from where he and his ancestors ("generations") originally come from: as he gets a taste of wild life, he feels less and less like a pet ("domesticated") and more like a feral dog or a wolf. He is forgetting his stay-at-home ways ("fell from him") and sees new instincts grow in him, such as the drive to fight and hunt in a pack.
Answer:
"Under the astonished, wide-eyed moon, with the fires casting strange shadows upon these towering figures, I am rather inclined to believe him."
Explanation:
The use of the words "astonished" and "wide-eyed" that are used to describe the non-human presence of the moon creates a feeling of wonder. It depicts a scene in which the moon is large (wide-eyed) and beautiful (astonished). This and the description of the fires and their shadows creates an almost magical scenario to help the reader envision what the narrator is seeing. The personification aids in this, allowing us to understand how the narrator <em>feels</em> as well (wonder).
The words "casting upon" can also be considered personification, but it is not relevant in this case.
A - incorrect as it does have a hero.
B - correct. The fact that it tells a long narrative story, among other things (like that it tells the story of the hero) makes it an epic poem.
C - incorrect as it is one long story
D - incorrect, using words in a poetic manner is not enough to consider writing an epic poem.
