Which best describes Hemingway's style of writing in the excerpt?

straightforward and simple, while still relating a lot of information to the reader

long-winded and offering far too much information to the reader

overly complicated, making it difficult to interpret and understand the text

effortless and uncomplicated, with little meaning for the reader to interpret

Straightforward and simple, while still relating a lot of information to the reader best describes Hemingway's style.

Explanation:

This excerpt of Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms" is characterized by short and direct sentences, whose purpose is to give as much information as possible while economizing words. For instance, from "There were three doctors that I knew," we know that there are doctors in the stations, and that three of them are known to the speaker. Notice how he said that much with a very short sentence. The last sentence, even though longer, is also straightforward and dynamic. Notice that it isn't paused by commas or semicolons. It flows nonstop, providing readers with command-like information.

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.
