Read the excerpt from the odyssey.

now zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
the bows went plunging at the gust; sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
we saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore
worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third dawn came with ringlets shining.

which key details should be included in a paraphrase of this passage? check all that apply.

a. the storm was a direct result of zeus’s fury at the men.
b. for two days and nights, zeus created a storm at sea.
c. odysseus and his men feared greatly for their lives.
d. the sails on the ship cracked in the heavy winds.
e. the men felt grief as they lay offshore and waited.

Which sentences from part 1 of the call of the wild would best serve as evidence of the theme "sometimes survival depends on knowing when not to fight"? buck had accepted the rope with quiet dignity. to be sure, it was an unwonted performance: but he had learned to trust in men he knew, and to give them credit for a wisdom that outreached his own. he had merely intimated his displeasure, in his pride believing that to intimate was to command. but to his surprise the rope tightened around his neck, shutting off his breath. he saw, once for all, that he stood no chance against a man with a club. he had learned the lesson, and in all his after life he never forgot it. that had given them an unfair advantage; but now that it was off, he would show them. they would never get another rope around his neck.
