Answer:
I believe that everyone was born pure and innocent; Being hateful has to do with the way you were taught when you were little or the people surrounding you. If the people around you have good manners then you'll grow used to it and also have good manners. It all depends on your surroundings.
In "To Build A Fire" by Jack London, the man is arrogant and overconfident. Of the four passages, this can be most inferred from passage C. Passage C reads:
"Those old-timers were rather womanish, some of them, he thought. All a man had to do was to keep his head, and he was all right. Any man who was a man could travel alone."
This clearly shows that the man thought he was more intelligent than the older generation from the area that advised him not to travel alone when the temperature was 50 degrees below zero. It was 75 degrees below, but he thought he could outwit nature. As he was freezing to death, he realized he was wrong, but it was too late. He was overconfident and that ultimately led to his death.
The man in the water dies.
Because he keeps handing the life raft that is lowered down (to him and the other people clinging to the tail section of the plane) off to other people, he misses his chance for survival. He remains anonymous and heroic, giving his own life so that the other people he was near could be rescued and survive.
