Answer and Explanation:

1. This is because the wolf has a reputation for ferocity and aggressiveness, which are desirable characteristics in someone who must face nature despite the limitations he has. Regarding this wolf's savagery, Beryl Rowland states that "Antiquity and the continuity of belief establish the wolf's eminence as a universal beast," which justifies the association of this animal with ferocity and strength.

2. literally, the wolf represents a wild, strong, imposing and limitless animal, as the life of a wild animal requires. Figuratively, the wolf has a strong symbolism, he represents protection, loyalty, high sense, resilience and willpower.

3. If we consider strength and loyalty to the flock, the wolf can be replaced by several animals, especially those in the wild. However, none of them has the stature and unbeatable attitude that the wolf has.

Review the last paragraph of chapter IX (lines 83-109). What is the central idea that Bradford communicates in this paragraph?
In-s [12.5K]
The central idea of the paragraph is the Pilgrims' spiritual legacy. They encountered many hardships and misfortunes on their way to the New World. They were beaten by harsh weather, fought by wild beasts and the Native Americans. All of those temptations were cast on them by God. They risked everything and, with His help, succeeded in founding what they saw as the new Zion. The point of the paragraph is, therefore, the celebration of their great venture, which was to change the world forever.
