Read the excerpt from part 2 of “to build a fire.” and all the time the dog ran with him, at his heels. when he fell down a second time, it curled its tail over its forefeet and sat in front of him, facing him, curiously eager and intent. the warmth and security of the animal angered him, and he cursed it till it flattened down its ears appeasingly. this time the shivering came more quickly upon the man. he was losing in his battle with the frost. which statement about this excerpt is correct? a. this excerpt is part of the plot exposition. it expresses the theme that nature is a powerful force. b. this excerpt is part of the falling action. it expresses the theme that nature is a powerful force. c. this excerpt is part of the plot exposition. it expresses the theme that all roads lead back home. d. this excerpt is part of the falling action. it expresses the theme that all roads lead back home.

The correct answer is B. This excerpt is part of the falling action. It expresses the theme that nature is a powerful force.

Indeed, at this point in the plot, exposition has already been established and what matters is the onset of its conclusion. The man clearly does not respect or understands nature. The dog character shows how ungrateful, proud and ignorant he is as the dog is trying to accompany him and assist him and he fails to heed the dog’s instinctive warnings that his course of action will inevitably lead to his demise. The falling is not only physical but symbolic as he will fall due to his hubris. The fact that both the dog and the extreme cold represent both faces of nature underscores the man’s failure to use the more benign face to his advantage, foreshadowing his later death. The dog’s ears are flattened out of submission and they mirror the psychological ears of the man who fails to listen to all the warning of other expert trappers and nature. Finally, the power of nature is made very explicit as it is typified as the winner of his losing battle with it.

halloween: it’s my favorite holiday

halloween is one of the best holidays for some people but it can also be scary for others. halloween is a holiday where some people believe spirits and soul of the dead that haven’t moved on will come back again to haunt the lives of the living. this is why many people dress up in costumes to disguise themselves as someone else. some people like us wish to be something that we would benefit in life from. like angels of god. some dress up just to be unique from the others. many families stay home and watch scary movies and others dress in their tremendous costumes and knock on each door to either get a trick or a treat.

personally everybody loves halloween because i could be someone else one day out of the year. it’s fun and entertaining, especially for kids. halloween also has a lot of history. many myths and beliefs say that witches and warlocks are alive and living among us. is this a trick or a truthful treat?

halloween may have secrets and scary things behind the door but we love halloween and it is beautiful to see how happy children are when each door opens full of treats and goodies. it makes everyone happy. happy halloween day.

happy to .
