Reread this excerpt from The Call of the Wild.

English
1 answer:
Schach [20]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

He does not seek confrontation, but he is vicious in his own defense.

Explanation:

<em>The Call of the Wild</em> is a novel written by Jack London. It tells about a dog named Buck, who is stolen and sold into service as a sled dog in Alaska, and the changes he experiences in the harsh, cold environment, surrounded by other dogs.

Based on the given excerpt, we can conclude that Sol-lek doesn't seek confrontation but can be vicious when he feels like he needs to defend himself.  We are told that he doesn't like being approached from his blind side and that he hurt Buck when he approached him like that. Sol-lek was simply defending himself and that is why he lashed out. After that incident, he and Buck were great friends, based on which we can conclude that he doesn't seek confrontation for no reason.

This is why the second option is the correct one.

Which ballad convention does Dudley Randall use in “Ballad of Birmingham”?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: The right answer is the C) Using an innocent questioner and a wise respondent.

Explanation: It must be stressed that options B and D are wrong, since this ballad uses the verse format (with a <em>abcb </em>rhyme scheme) and its subject matter is definitely not a celebration, but a very tragical event - the death of a child in the bombing of a church in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1963. Ballads do feature a question-answer format, which helps to build up suspense and maintain the reader's interest and engagement. In this particular example, the innocent questioner is a small child, and the wise respondent is his mom, who attempts, to no avail, to dissuade him from attending the Freedom March.

how does the author of john white and Roanoke develop the idea that establishing a colony was going to be difficult?
Ulleksa [173]
In the passages, the author gives a few details that develop the idea that establishing a colony at Roanoke was going to be difficult because of the Native Americans. The author says, "not all relations between the colonists and the Native Americans were friendly." He expands on this when he states, "some Native Americans were still angry about the colonists' presence and threatened to do battle." The Native Americans who did not want the English colony at Roanoke made it difficult to establish a colony.
