Answer:

One important theme is perseverance. The story highlights the importance of never giving up. The conflict behind this theme is evident from the way that Clay struggles against nature in the climb up the mountain. Clay's effort pays off when he successfully reaches his destination and discovers even more firewood than he thought would be there:

"Reaching upward the distance of a step, he brushed away the snow, and in the frozen gravel and crumbled rock of the slide chopped a shallow resting place for his foot. Then he came up a step, reached forward, and repeated the maneuver. And so, step by step, foothole by foothole, a tiny speck of toiling life poised like a fly on the face of Moosehide Mountain, he fought his upward way."

"The gully opened out into a miniature basin, in which a floor of soil had been deposited, out of which, in turn, a tiny grove of pines had sprung. The trees were all dead, dry and seasoned, having long since exhausted the thin skin of earth."

"Clay ran his experienced eye over the timber, and estimated that it would chop up into fifty cords at least. Beyond, the gully closed in and became barren rock again. On every hand was barren rock, so the wonder was small that the trees had escaped the eyes of men. They were only to be discovered as he had discovered them— by climbing after them."

Write essay about children rights?​
mestny [16]
First, let us understand what are “Rights”

Generally, rights are a moral or legal entitlement to have or to do something they are meant for intellectual and spiritual development of an Individual and which also have a moral obligation upon him/her.

Now, how important are they??

Every one of us has the right to live, it does not really mean mere existence, it means living with dignity and having all the basic necessities for survival like for example food, shelter, education, clothing, clean environment and having peaceful standards of life.

Many Constitutions in the world has codified some basic rights as their fundamental rights for the betterment of their citizens, similar to that one we have in India.

Hence now we can conclude that for every individual to unleash his/her true potential some fundamental rights guaranteed by the law are necessary and it shall be the duty of the state to guarantee Rights to their citizens.

In similar to these fundamental rights even children also should have some basic rights to enjoy!!

Who is a Child??

According to United Nations any individual under the age of 18 is a child, even they have their own basic needs such as
Right to get a universal education.
Right to get universal health care.
Right to have the basic liberty of thoughts and expression.
Rights for physical protection from abuse (in any form).
Right to an adequate standard of living.

Review the description in Jack London's "To Build a Fire" the narrator reports the feelings and concerns of both the man and the
spayn [35]
It might be said that the narrator´s description of feelings and concerns about the man and the dog is displayed in the third person omniscient (option A). The narration is taken from the point of view of an external person, so the protagonist is addressed as "the man" (3rd person point of view) and it might be omniscient because the narrator seems to have the knowledge about everything that happens, to be aware and to understand both characters.
