How does jack londons essay "the human drift" compare to other naturalist works such as Stephan cranes short story" the open boo

saw5 [17]

Both works examine the position, roles, and aspirations of humans in the natural world, ruled by natural principles. In "The Human Drift" London talks about humanity's enormous and continuous effort to sustain and survive, in the face of natural phenomena, which are not always friendly - or rather, they are completely indifferent toward people, and the circumstances often have hostile appearances. People have migrated to better places, in search of food; they have fought and killed animals and other people; they have improved their means of growing food; they have industrialized; they have invented socialism; they have improved war technology. Eventually, they will have to stop breeding, as to prevent overpopulation. But whatever they do, they will have to go extinct, just like so many times in the unknown history. They may try to tame the nature, but they will never succeed.

Crane's story "The Open Boat" deals with the same topic: Man vs. Nature, or even better: Man immersed in Nature. The four people who survived a shipwreck are spending days and nights in a tiny boat, surrounded by the endless ocean. At first, they think Nature is punishing them, by letting them hope before it decides to drown them. Slowly, they start having a more accurate, stoic, existentialist view: Nature doesn't take them into account. They are absolutely insignificant. Whether they live or die is only a matter of chance. They will do their best to survive, of course; but they aren't able to tame the nature.

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

PART A: In paragraph 9 of “On the Education of Youth in America,” how does the quotation,

“The constitutions are republican, and the laws of education are monarchical” reinforce

Webster’s point of view on education?

A. It indicates that the type of education students are receiving poorly prepares them for government service.

B. It asserts that schools should emphasize the merits of the U.S. political system over those of other systems.

C. It emphasizes that the current education laws are contrary to the country’s form of government.

D. It describes the educational opportunities shared by wealthy students and poor students.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. It asserts that schools should emphasize the merits of the U.S. political system over those of other systems.

Explanation:

In “On the Education of Youth in America,” the monarchy is compared to the republican system. It is highlighted that in a republican government, education is the main thing and not partial as in the monarchies.

This should be disseminated mainly by schools and the media. Education will give each citizen knowledge about the laws that govern this system.

That is why the author claims that a system foreign to that of the country should not be taken into account, since it would be useless. Let's read the following quotes:

"Hence the absurdity of our copying the manners and adopting the institutions of Monarchies."

"The constitutions are republican, and the laws of education are monarchical."

Given this information we can say that the correct answer is option B.
