When Jack is on the trail, he sees some pig poop. The narrator says that Jack "bent down to [it] as though he loved [it]" (111).

That's kind of gross. What do you make of it? Can you think of any way in which pig poop, hunting for it, and being fascinated by it might be symbolic, or at least a clue as to what Jack is really all about?

Answer and Explanation:

1. I agree that this is disgusting, but it is an important element for large hunters, as feces can indicate whether the animal is far or close, making it easier for an experienced hunter, like Jack, to find his prey more easily.

2. Pig poop, hunting and fascination can be symbolic and represent an obsession with something. This obsession is capable of provoking strange and not at all admirable behaviors like Jack's behavior of appreciating pig feces as if he loves them.

After reading Edgar Guest's poem "The Things That Haven't Been Done Before" and "Perseus and the Quest for Medusa's Head," Arnol
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Option number three is correct.

Explanation:

Edgar Guest is an American poet, famous for his optimistic tone. He was also called People's Poet.

A hero is defined as someone who is valuable or appreciated by his achievements or good qualities or by his courage.

In the third option, the speaker contrasts two different groups: first one is described in line 3 of the excerpt ("Are you one...?") and the characteristics of the other group are defined in the other lines (The things that...) and the final line adds emphasis by asking a direct question. The semantic field is also related in the statement and in the excerpt (uncharted, new discoveries, path and undone things, lead, way), making the third option the right answer.
